Beschreibung
Quäsenbö is a card game for the Decktet. It is similar to standard-deck Crazy Eights, but is, however, somewhat more complex due to the multiple-suit nature of the Decktet cards, and because the third consecutive play of the same suit is penalized by having to draw an extra card.

The author makes the historically dubious claim that "Quäsenbö was a popular game at the court of the badger Charlemagne. Its name means 'too many.' The theme is thought to reflect political issues of royal succession in the many small kingdoms of the Empire; although some feminist historians believe it instead derives from the quäsenbö pan, a cast-iron skillet capable of turning out vast numbers of spätzle at a time."
