The Everdeck: A Universal Card System (2019)

The mystic bent limits the usability of the deck, since most people I play with, when playing games like Sheepshead try playing with more traditional decks. As well as traditional Tarot decks from Russia (OG tarot, not modern designs).

Vintage Tarot decks include more art/influence from the current ruling empire, not new-age mystic nonsense.

I created my own multideck a few years ago: https://randomlyunique.com/random/2023/improved-multideck/in... (SVG in link)

I use this deck all the time too - it was well worth the $25 to print it out.

In case no one's mentioned it yet, this reminds me of Heckadeck : https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/296334/heckadeck

Really cool deck! Anyone out there play Mu? It's an _excellent_ trick taking card game. One of the few (complex, trick-taking... I'm not counting stuff like Uno in this genre) card games that I know of that works really well with 5 or 6 players. This deck _almost_ would work for Mu, but it'd need different point values. (I keep having to rebuy new Mu games when the deck wears out so I've been contemplating other possibilities.)

Unfortunately I'm already heavily invested into the Deckmaster system.

I’d love to see a variation on the concept that minimizes information on each card. It would of course result in a larger deck, but would reduce visual noise while playing games.

I think one colored suit symbol and one rank is the most needed. Some cards could have symbols like Uno’s “skip” card as their rank.

I think my biggest complaint with this deck is that the Os and 0s look the same in the chosen font. They are in opposite corners on the card and one should always be colored and the other black, so shouldn't be easily confused in an oriented spread or in orienting the cards, so it is mostly just an aesthetic complaint.

What is it about a good card game that is so appealing? I am not a fan of dice games at all, but give me some cards to hold, and I'm in.

Are there any good svg free deck designs out there? Like the traditional looking ones?

Finally we have a deck that can support my new game Calvin Deck.

21$ deck, 27$ delivery... no

This looks complicated! The only card games I know are patience and Uno. Oh and top trumps, but not sure if that counts...

this feels like excellent foundations for a board game. fascinating!

> The Everdeck is designed with a ruthless combinatorial efficiency. Beneath its minimalist pen-and-ink design lies layers of mathematical and linguistic patterns. This isn’t just a deck with haphazardly placed extra glyphs; rather, it aims to be both beautiful and practical.
