<p>I love to play Village Idiot (I'm sure it goes by other names, but I don't know them), and I am wanting to play games similar to it, mainly shorter games.  <strong>Is there a definitive category or name that Village Idiot falls under</strong>, which would help me in my search for similar games?</p>

It would be good to include a quick summary of (or link to) the rules in the post itself, just in case there's more than one game out there with similar names.
