Pairs - Princess and Mr. Whiffle

Pairs is a “New Classic Pub Game” designed by James Ernest and Paul Peterson. It’s a simple press-your luck card game with no winner, just one loser. The deck is 55 cards, numbered 1 through 10, with 1×1, 2×2, 3×3, and so on up to 10×10. It’s simple, fast, and fun. “The Princess and Mr. Whiffle” is a book that looks like a children’s book, but certainly isn’t, created by Patrick Rothfuss and Nate Taylor. This deck contains some spooky kid’s book illustrations by fantasy artist Nate Taylor. It also contains the rules for “Kitty,” a bidding game for 3 to 6 players.
