I'm interested in members feedback on

I've now added a tuck box and a rules booklet. I'm looking to make some more changes to it. Tell me what you'd like to see in it. Should I include a LWB for divinatory meanings or should I leave it as a purely gaming deck?

WELL - given how very firmly it actually says THIS IS NOT A FORTUNE TELLING DECK - I would leave divinatory meanings out of it.

I agree, you focus on card playing as a game, not divination, so I'd not confuse the players/buyers with adding in divination meanings.

I totally agree with this. Keep it a game deck. Do you include instructions on how to play the game? If so I'm totally getting this

Yes, there's a 2 page instruction booklet reconstructing Trionfi the 15th century Tarot game with options for play for multiple players. It's not included with the deck but it's a free pdf download.

Rules now included INSIDE the tuck box!

I figured out how to include the rules in the tuck box! They are still available for free download!

I am so far significantly unenabled - I do have some tarock decks - but also - I have no-one to PLAY it with. CAN you play with two people, for when he gets back ?

The simplest 2 player Tarot game is a 3 player game in which the third hand is a "dead" pile which takes no part in play. It's not the best however. An especially good 2 player Tarock game is commonly called Stromandeln and it's normally played with the 54 card Austrian Tarock deck

Another interesting 2 player game played with Italian cards is given here.

There are also 2 player versions of French Tarot given here
