The
Games 
There are
currently 13 different games that can be played with a deck of Alpha
Playing Cards. There are also new games being created and on the way.
When will the game ideas stop? I don't know. So, remember to stop by
every once and in while to see what's new.
You will need
Adobe® Acrobat TM to read
and print out the rule sheets.
If you don't have it get it here.
Word Games: Unless
otherwise noted in order for a word to qualify in the word games, it
must be in a current dictionary. Words may not be abbreviated, proper
nouns, or a foreign language.
