I had a lot on this weekend, so I could only put together the rules for a card-game. Core to the game play are partial-information and outright deceit, as far as I know it's a unique game.

There's no computer-based implementation of this, but you can play it with your (human) friends and a (human) referee if you want to. The "Rules and Printable Assets" link will point you to the repository for the rules document and the images. You should be able to download them all as a zip file from there (look for the button entitled "ZIP").

If you do play it, let me know how well it works for you and if you have any refinements or suggestions, or if anything in the rules is unclear. Over Christmas I'm going to try to put together a browser version and a node.js server (hopefully also hosted in the browser), so any feedback on the rules/balance will be very much appreciated.
