''A Gamut of Games'' is an innovative book of games written by Sid Sackson and first published in 1969. It contains rules for a large number of paper and pencil, card, and board games. Many of the games in the book had never before been published. It is considered by many to be an essential text for anyone interested in abstract strategy games, and a number of the rules were later expanded into full-fledged published board games. Some of the games which were later sold separately include Focus, Property and Origins of World War I; Robert Abbott expanded his game Crossings, published here, into the more-refined title Epaminondas. Many of the games covered in the book were creations of Sid Sackson himself, who was a prolific game designer. The sections of the book and the games covered therein are as follows: ==In Search of Big and Little Games== *''Mate'', a card game by G. Capellen *''Blue and Gray'', a board game by Henry Busch and Arthur Jaeger *''Le Truc'', a revived French card game *''Plank'', a serious revamp of the concepts in Tic-Tac-Toe *Zetema, a Victorian card game similar to Bezique *''Hekaton'', a card game originally published along with "Yankee Notion Cards" from the 19th century 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「A Gamut of Games」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
