The *trifold* pamphlets look great!

Note there are some advantages to a bifold pamphlet:

Easier to fold.
Once you have several bifold pamphlets than easier to collect into a half-letter (or A5) size booklet.
If each (half-letter) pamphlet "page" is *vertically* separated into two halves than could also further format into an eighth-letter booklet which could be small enough to store with the playing cards (i.e. could do two "one-page zine" format per pamphlet).

I will play around with the layout, if I can get it to look good, I'll give it a go! I do have another game, Greeting Card Guard, that uses the bifold (greeting card) format for the game board but not for the rules.

A couple of possible examples for inspiration:

1) Bright Hammer has some nice looking "one-page" zines (especially the Bestiary) which could theoretically have been converted to a bifold pamphlet by flipping sections around.

2) Most of the Cheapass Games rules are bifold pamphlets.
