You play Genevieve and then you draw out this card: To give you an example, let’s assume that on another turn you drew the same awesome hand I mentioned earlier, but this time you’ve chambermaided all of the Colettes from your deck. And even if you remove all of your deck clutter, the aftermath might result in a new type of clutter to deal with. Now there are cases where you do want to keep Colette in your deck, but that applies to more unorthodox strategies which we’re not going to cover in this guide. It would’ve been nice to draw something else other than this card, right? Another Genevieve would’ve been cool, or even a 1 Love card. You play Genevieve and the next card you draw is this: To make deck clutter more obvious, let’s say that your hand for the next turn looks this awesome:

The obvious way for you to always have a full hand of 1 Love cards every turn is to ‘declutter’ your deck by finding ways to chambermaid your starting Colettes as fast as possible. If it weren’t for Colette taking up space in your deck, your chances of drawing a full hand of 5 Love cards every turn is 100%, and having this kind of hand during the first deck cycle (going through your entire deck of ten cards in the first two turns of the game) is a very powerful opening. With your second turn looking like this (or vice versa): To give you an idea of what I’m talking about, this is one possible best-case scenario for your hand on your first turn: The reason why the developers shoved Colette in your deck is to give you a taste on how devastating deck clutter can be. While Colette is important once the game is over and everyone tallies their Victory Points, she is nothing but a thorn on your side before this point in the game as she does absolutely nothing useful when you play her, and she’s also the only card in the entire set that requires two service points to chambermaid, and you still get no bonus for doing so.


In general, it can be broken down into three steps:Īt the beginning of the game, you start out with three of this card in your deck:

Optimizing your deck building in Tanto Cuore is intellectually simple, but emotionally hard to execute. So if you’re already familiar with the game’s fundamental mechanics, let’s get started. If you’re not familiar with this game at all you should ideally play it first because blah blah blah arrogant remarks or check out this really verbose explanation of the fundamental game mechanics right here. Now this guide assumes two things from you: the first is that you’re sort of familiar with Tanto Cuore’s mechanics, and the second is you’re playing only with the first set (the box doesn’t have the subtitle “Romantic Vacation” or “Expanding the House” on it).

Now that ACen’s been over for a week and I’ve mostly recovered from that whole ordeal, it’s time to follow it up with a guide on how to play my favorite deck-building card game that involves maids: Tanto Cuore.
