Compendium games consist of a set number of deals each of which has different rules or objectives. Usually, most of the deals are various types of trick-taking or trick-avoidance game with, typically, the last deal being a domino-type game. In some games, during the first deal or group of deals, players score minus points or contribute stakes to a pot; then, in the final deal, the points or contents of the pool may be won back.
