Something you may not have realised is right-handed: playing cards.

When you pick up a card with your dominant hand and add it to the front of a card you're holding in your non-dominant hand, you create a fan towards your dominant hand.

Standard playing cards have a small version of the number and suit in two corners so that you can see them no matter which way up the card is, *as long as they're fanned right*, and many modern card games follow suit (ha!) without thinking, for the convention or aesthetic

Consider mirroring important summary information in both left and right corners (Ticket to Ride does a great job putting the suits in both corners while maintaining the pleasant asymmetrical feel of having them in one)

It's admittedly only a tiny accessibility issue, but it IS an accessibility issue, so have think about it.

@ben

Those cards (French) are suitable for both, right-handed and left handed palyers. They are very common in Europe

@MedusaGladiatrix Ah, I've seen decks like this, but hadn't realised there was anything regional about it.

@ben @MedusaGladiatrix
Bridge players use a bridge deck. How regional is the game of bridge?

@bornach @ben @MedusaGladiatrix poker deck vs bridge deck. In Europe I was used to the latter. The size of cards is different too.
