Book of Dragons

A single tarot-sized deck of 40 illustrated cards contains four copies each of ten unique dragon artworks. Cards have no text or icons, so all games use only the imagery and remain language-independent. The system supports multiple distinct game designs that reuse the same deck: players may bluff, bid, draft, deduce, cooperate, compete in area control or battle, manage hidden roles or scoring, play solitaire, and more, depending on the chosen scenario. Each scenario defines player count, objectives, and mechanics while relying solely on the artwork for actions and communication.
