How to Play Cowards, by James Ernest

James Ernest of Crab Fragment Labs explains the rules for Cowards, a two-player bluffing game for the Blossom Deck.

The Blossom Deck is a six-suited deck with cards numbered Ace through nine. In Cowards players divide the deck into two halves, Day and Night, and draw one card from each. Each player reveals one card, and the lower of the cards decides whether to play If the game is on, the higher night card wins, and the loser pays the value of their day card.

You can learn more about the Blossom deck at the Island Deck page. These decks share a page because both decks have six suits, and they can be used for most of the same games.

Note: I mentioned the possibility of wagering as much as ten coins. This is an error based on many hours of Barcelona, which is basically the same game but played with a poker deck. Noticed too late to fix it, don't really mind.
