Shuffle the deck, gather your people, and get ready to play some cards.
There’s nothing quite like a deck of cards, they’re simple, timeless, and endlessly entertaining. From lazy Sunday afternoons to late-night gatherings, a pack of cards (or two) can unlock hours of fun.
What’s the Deal? is your complete guide to 52 classic and contemporary card games (one for every card in the deck!). From quick solo challenges to raucous group showdowns, there is a game for players of all ages and skill levels.
Whether you’re mastering solitaire, bluffing your way through poker night, or discovering something more involved like scopa or euchre, this sleek, modern book makes learning easy and enjoyable. Clear instructions, playful illustrations, and a clean design make it a joy to flip through – and a perfect gift for anyone who loves games, good company, and a bit of friendly competition.
