Deluxe Rook features a deck of 56 premium-quality, numerical ROOK cards (no face cards) and the unique ROOK Bird Card. Also includes score sheets and the first modern Players, ROOK IN A BOOK-an 80 page book with rules for all popular Rook variations. You’ll find a complete analysis of these … More >>
These Rook cards do contain the larger font of an earlier edition. However, the yellow suit is very pale and difficult to see. After we opened the cards (two sets were purchased), we found that the Rooks on the backs of the cards were printed upside-down. The cards are also not particularly sturdy. These cards appear to be irregulars.

Rook cards great shape except the cards in yellow were very hard to see because the color was to light. Had never seen any like them before.

This isn’t a toy, it’s a card game for goodness sake! It’s a game of Rook, that our family has played for years, and enjoys very much. These paticular cards are ok, but I would REALLY like to find plastic coated. Although these are supposed to be rated “tournament quality”, they don’t last very long.

We have been playing Rook for several generations, too. We have such a large family and we all love it so well, that we had to invent a more deluxe game where more people could play. We came up with a game where we can play with 7 people. Even that wasn’t enough though, so now we play high-low table. We get hours of enjoyment out of this game.

Created in 1906 as an alternative “card” game for those who believed that regular cards were sinful and of the devil, Rook is a game that people of all ages will enjoy playing. My family has played Rook since I was a very young child and I’ve never gotten tired of playing the game. I’ve enjoyed playing the game with my grandparents, aunts, and uncles as well as college students. There are several different styles of game play, depending on the number of people you have (2-6) and depending on how challenging you want the game to be. Rook is a great game for families to play and I recommend it to anyone looking for something a little bit different from the norm.
