Step into the thrilling world of The Great Dalmuti, a fast-paced, light-hearted card game where your goal is to ascend the ranks by being the first to rid yourself of your cards!

With an engaging deck of 80 cards, players will navigate a unique ranking system. Cards are numbered from 12 to 1, accompanied by two mischievous Jesters. Each number represents both its rank and the quantity of cards in the deck – for instance, there are a whopping twelve 12s, eleven 11s, four 4s, and just a single card ranked 1. In this game, the lower the number, the higher the rank!

The game kicks off as players are dealt their cards, with the main objective being to play them as quickly as possible. A player starts the round by placing one or more cards of the same rank face-up in the center. But watch out! The next player must either play the same number of cards of a higher rank or pass. Jesters, being the wild cards, can be played alongside any other cards for strategic advantage!

This back-and-forth continues until all but one player has passed. The last player to lay down cards leads the next round, creating a dynamic and interactive gameplay experience. After all players have discarded their cards, they are ranked accordingly. The first player to go out is crowned The Great Dalmuti, and players will shift their seating to reflect their new social hierarchy before diving into another exhilarating round.

The Great Dalmuti is not just a game; it’s a lively experience best enjoyed over multiple rounds filled with laughter and rivalry.

Notably, The Great Dalmuti is a commercial adaptation of the beloved traditional card game President, which draws inspiration from the ancient Chinese game Zheng Shang Yu. It has influenced a variety of reimaginings, including:

  • Dilbert: Corporate Shuffle
  • Pyramid Card
  • Scum: The Food Chain Game
  • Deathtrap Dungeon: Card Game
