Overview

Game description from the publisher: Come play a game of mischief, magic, mirth, and lore. Delve into the Book of Fate to reveal mysterious fortunes: realms near and far, resources wondrous and wild. Cast your lot with a crew of assorted (and sordid) characters. If you pay your dues and play your hand right, you may just win a fool's fortune. A Fool's Fortune is a two- or three-player card game in the tradition of Rummy in which players race to make sets – but with several wily twists. Found within the deck of 77 unique cards are five suits of Fortunes and a host of talented characters for players to put to use.
