Sunday night we had some friends over and they showed us a couple of new games; nerts (card game) and farkle (dice game). Team play with nerts can get quite a little crazy, with hands flying all over the table. Farkle also goes by the name of 10,000, with variations on points.
UPDATE 10:55pm Sun 14 Aug 2005: Keith pointed out a good nerts resource, nertz.com. I suppose it would help if I spelled nertz correctly 🙂

Hi, I found your blog post through a search for “Nertz”. It is cool to see others that know about the game. I hope you don’t mind but I wanted to let you know about playnertz.com, the site for the National Nertz Association. There is a bunch of interesting Nertz information there and you can also find out how to play Nertz online there. I hope you will check it out. Feel free to join and also let your friends and family know. Thanks again
After my wife introduced me to Farkel I simply got addicted to it.
So much so that I wrote my own version for the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch.

If you ever stop by and give it a try, any feedback would be greatly appreciated. 🙂
Thanks!
