Sanity Test for Burglar's Bluff

The ordering of the rules is sound. The headers and bullet points do a good job of distinguishing the hierarchy.

Fine.

The text is fine, but it's not overly original or inspired.

Covers some of the basics. I would mention that it's press your luck scoring.

It's good that you define melds, but I would go so far as to identify sets and runs too, something like "(i.e., sets of the same number and runs of sequential numbers)".

Card list with counts.

One picture of a sample of cards. Ok.

Pretty good. The noun should be Setup though, not Set Up.

3. Should include choosing a dealer.

4. Deal eight Community Cards: This is confusing because it sounds like there are Cash and Gold cards and a different type of card called Community Cards.

Fine.

Exceptional rules with good examples.

Introduction to Cash and Gold Cards: Calling them Cash and Gold Cards is rather verbose. Maybe you can think of another name for the cards when referring to them in a generic fashion.

Treasure Cards: "sets of identical numeric labels and runs of consecutive labels": the use of "labels" rather than numbers sounds weird.

Burglar Cards: "Discard it as a new Community Card": face-up may need to be specified.

Gameplay: Perform one action: Pick three cards, Bank a new treasure, etc.: number these actions here too.

Good.

Extend a banked treasure example and Steal a treasure examples: The arrows for Reveal and To your hand should more clearly be connected to the lock card.

The use of "you" for the Final Steal directions could be confusing. "After completing your second-to-last turn place your entire hand (except the Final Steal card) face-down on the table..." could be read as applying to everyone.

A somewhat complicated scoring method is explained quite well.

"...however, you must place the Final Steal card face-down as the safe card on a successfully stolen treasure...": This is a bit confusing because your final steal might not be successful. Then what do you do with the card?

Very clear.

Overall, very well-written.

"the Community Cards are not restocked until there [are] fewer than eight in the playing area.
"

The rules are functional but not especially pretty. A graphic designer would make them look more professional.

I would not put notes in italics the same as examples. This style makes people less likely to read rather than more likely. Maybe a box around regular text instead.

Not all of the examples are in italics. I would do so and maybe even use a different color text.

The text is good. You could add something like "in this exciting card game" to tell what kind of game it is.

I'm not a fan of the logo. It looks amateurish, and the large ™ is distracting.

Very good.

I would invest in an artist to make a more identifiable logo. The current one is just type with some color and drop shadow.

The images are very high quality, and there is a good variety including all the components included in the box.

An excellent description of gameplay. The only thing missing is a thematic introduction. You could basically include the intro text from the rules.

Good animation. The start of "extending a set" is hard to follow because things go by fast.

As with the description, you could add a thematic introduction to interest viewers (or make a separate thematic video.)
