Rules: Detail view Back to full view

A set of rulebooks and activities in detail.

Rules added to the sequence of play

These rulebooks are the best places to put rules timed to happen at the start, at the end, or once each turn. (Each is run through at a carefully chosen moment in the relevant top-level rulebook.) It is also possible to have rules take effect at specific times of day or when certain events happen. Those are listed in the Scenes index, alongside rules taking place when scenes begin or end.

When play begins ... rulebook
name
start of rulebook (if 0 is 1 begin; ...)

these rules are equally ranked, so their order is determined by which was defined first (or by explicit 'listed in' sentences) (change the command prompt to "Hi there! What is your first name? > ")

Every turn ... rulebook
name
There are no rules in this rulebook.

When play ends ... rulebook

There are no rules in this rulebook.
