PLAY4D Playing Card Game System (2009)

PLAY4D is a Game System for Enhanced Playing Cards.

You can use PLAY4D playing cards as traditional playing cards or as enhanced playing cards to add fun new twists to your favorite card games!

There is no single PLAY4D GAME, because PLAY4D is a GAME SYSTEM for Playing Cards.

PLAY4D DECK SET #1 contains two 55-card decks of enhanced playing cards you can use to play your favorite card games and one 27-card deck of optional game system cards you can use to conveniently create and display bonuses.

ENHANCED PLAYING CARDS

PLAY4D expands the potential for games by enhancing traditional cards with new dimensions.

PLAY4D Playing Cards are enhanced with calendar dimensions that are mapped to traditional suits:
• Years are mapped to Spades
• Months are mapped to Hearts
• Dates-of-Month are mapped to Diamonds
• Days-of-Week are mapped to Clubs

Make card games more fun by using these calendar dimensions to add bonus cards that reflect the current date, your birthday, and/or a special date!

The 55-card PLAY DECK (white background) is typically used as a “GAME DECK” to play card games. The 55-card BONUS/REFERENCE DECK (black background) is typically used as a “NON-GAME DECK” to display bonus cards.

GAME SYSTEM CARDS (Optional)

You can use game system cards to help remind players what bonuses are active and how much they are worth ... but you don’t have to.

OTHER USES FOR PLAY4D CARDS
With PLAY4D DECK SET #1 cards, you can also:
• Create and play new calendar-based games
• Teach kids about dates
• Help folks remember dates
• Generate random dates for role playing games
• Display the cards as a calendar
• Expand tarot card decks

SUGGESTED NUMBER OF PLAYERS

The number of players depends upon the game being played. For example, PLAY4D RUMMY is best played with 2-4 players with a single deck and 5-8 players with two decks.

PLAYING TIME

The playing time depends upon the game being played; however, you can also alter the playing time by altering the PLAY4D bonuses. For example, you can speed up a game by: adding more PLAY4D bonuses, making PLAY4D bonuses worth points and/or adding a WIN GAME or LOSE GAME card.
