Games where the new rules are added to the game as gameplay progresses.
This pattern is a still a stub.

Examples
When games become organized with international committees overseeing what the official rules are (part of the definition of the formal sports but not the one used in this wiki), they stop having Evolving Rule Sets, or at least change much slower since these changes need to be negotiated.
Using the pattern
That the rules of a game instance changes as gameplay takes place; Enablers: Events Timed to the Real World; Consequences: Ephemeral Events, Encouraged Return Visits, Exploration, Red Queen Dilemma
Evolving Rule Sets differ from Varying Rule Sets in that latter does not need rules to be made during gameplay, the can all exist before game instances begin but not be active.
