I really like the way this game is done, but I found some of the explanations regarding the kings and the dice confusing until I had read through the entire text -- I wish there had been a little bit more explanation of this up front.
Also, what is the purpose of removing the kings before shuffling? Is it just to ensure that they're not the top card of their respective stacks?
Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, I'm just playing through it again and I wish I'd been clearer on that. If I revise this at some point I'll take that onboard!
Removing the Kings is just to make sure it's not on top, yeah. I probably should have been clearer about that. I try to make sure they're in the lower half of the stack. I thought it would feel like how you do this in The Quiet Year but the piles are too small for it to feel natural.
