Line 1:
I've devised some pyramid games and tools, listed at [http://mcdemarco.net/games/pyramid/ my website] and also below. My storage system is [[ChocolateTinStorage|an old chocolate tin.]]
== Rules and Tools ==
I’ve put together some rules summaries, randomizers and scoresheets for pyramid games:
* [https://mcdemarco.github.io/321/zoningoutrandomizer.html Zoning Out Randomizer], randomizes the random special rules for [[Zoning Out]], a Sprawlopolis-like game, as well as the three draw bags, and includes a scoresheet and rules summary.
* a [https://mcdemarco.github.io/321/pyramidrandomizer.html Pyramid Randomizer] based on the code I wrote to randomize the draw bags for Zoning Out.
* [http://mcdemarco.net/games/decktet/dectana/ Dectana Deciphered] includes a player aid similar to the official one for [[Dectana]], a Zarcana-like game, but with more pretty pictures.
== Geeklists ==
I’ve compiled some pyramid geeklists for reference:
* [https://boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/333293/pyramid-arcade-games Pyramid Arcade Games], games in the Pyramid Arcade, the Quartet, or the Sandships mailing.
* [https://boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/333336/pyramid-arcade-extra-games Pyramid Arcade Extra Games], the 22 extra games not included in the box, plus the 6 fan favorites not included in the 22 extras.
* [https://boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/333402/arcana The Arcana], my history and taxonomy of Zarcana-like games.
* [https://boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/333078/am-i-starship-captain Am I a Starship Captain?], my Starship Captain list, such as it is
== My Games ==
I’ve half-designed a few pyramid games based on other games, mostly as an intellectual exercise. They have not yet been fully playtested.
=== Darcana ===
Darcana is an unpublished work in progress along the lines of Dectana, but with more Gnostica and less Zark City.
=== Deck Town ===
[http://mcdemarco.net/games/decktet/decktown/ Deck Town] is based on [[Zark City]], a [[Zarcana]] for the rest of us by Andrew Looney. I devised it in order to work my way up to actually playing [[Dectana]] (after having merely [http://mcdemarco.net/games/decktet/dectana/ deciphered] it).
=== Jacynth City ===
[http://mcdemarco.net/games/decktet/jacity/ Jacynth City] is also based on [[Zark City]], as well as the Decktet classic [https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/39290/jacynth Jacynth] by P.D. Magnus, I devised it after a discussion on my [https://boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/333402/arcana geeklist of Zarcana-type games].
=== Somids ===
[https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/3264456/somids Somids] is a variant of [[Nomids]] designed for my pyramid-hungry toddler who refuses to shed.
