📖 About This Game

A two-player game with Looney Pyramids and playing cards. Players each begin with a stash of 15 Looney Pyramids, and draft 15-card individual decks from a standard 54-card deck (13 cards in each suit, plus 2 jokers). They then play in battles of three skirmishes each, where the high card determines the winner of each skirmish. The loser of a skirmish contributes a pyramid to the tower, and the loser of a battle contributes any further pyramids needed to complete a set of three, plus a card to raise the tower to its next level. If a player is unable to play a pyramid, or knocks over the tower, his opponent wins.
