Abbott's New Card Games (1963)

This book contains nine new card games mostly played with a regular deck. Some of these games were also published separately. Babel - A real time party game that simulates the stock market.

Auction - An auction game where the playing cards are money. Variety - A game that uses bidding to counteract the possibility of getting a bad hand. Metamorphosis - A trick taking game where the rules change each hand. Switch - A partnership game where the partners switch every hand. Eleusis - An induction game. Construction - A board game where the board is built with cards. Ultima - A fast action chess variant.
