Wow, this is beautiful! I like the artistic interpretation of the pip cards. Are the court cards illustrating specific people or is there some kind of theme they’re representing?

In the description they say all proceeds, after kickstarter fees, production & shipping, will go to the charity Hope For Justice which fights against human trafficking. Though considering how slim playing card margins are even with successful campaigns, I'm not sure a couple hundred bucks will ...

I would actually love mahjong cards - but only for mahjong; not this weird suit-hybrid thing they’re attempting. I mean... props for trying to make it adaptable?

I forked out for the Sunrise brick (I don’t own any Gio decks - Order was my first campaign). Definitely went over my budget for this month, but I guess I just got my tax return? Time to cull more Kickstarters x_x

Printed by the QP Group on casino-quality card stock

Might be MPC - I received a Kickstarter delivery a while ago from QP Printing Ltd (per the tracking), which arrived with MPC labelling on the box.

Edit: MPC’s ‘about us’ page also states it’s owned by the QP Group

Loving this deck. Will there be a roll call card or a booklet with the names/background of each god?

Snuck into an early bird for all 3 decks, look forward to them

I swear I saw this on a retailer’s website a while ago... is it a new deck or a reprint? Either way, the art isn’t to my taste. Edit: found it, printing date listed as 2017 https://www.buyworthy.com.au/products/karma-playing-cards-life-death-taoism-deck-by-magicsoul" onclick="window.open(t...

Love booklets! I’d take a propaganda one put out by the Order itself as well - I enjoyed the little descriptions you included in the KS updates so far.

They’ll also be offering their old decks (Bones, Masquerade, etc.) as add-ons via the pledge survey (I assume Backerkit or similar) - I’m keen to pick a few up

Excited about the stretch goals for extra puppy art - despite the other flaws of the deck

Hey, for once something is cheaper in Australia! Although at AUD$33 shipped it’s still on the pricier end of KS’s I’m willing to back - especially since the printer will probably end up being MPC or similar (or worse). But argh it’s too darn cute; I’m in.

They have been around for quite a while and strangely have quite a strong following...basically any project they launch is almost a guaranteed funded project...weird, but true...even after they over promise and under deliver, time and time again...smh Some things in life, we just can't explain :? G...

Speaking with some friends, it seems that the design feels too Disney fairytale, princes and princesses. Given the fact that people who play with cards are mostly adults and not children, it's not that the artwork isn't good but just out of place in terms of age. It might be a great deck if sold wi...

Darn, why did I pick up that weekend shift...?

Thanks for the info, I will try and help bring glory to this launch!

Will the EBs be time-limited or amount-limited? (Aka do I need a 1am alarm )

Lol I literally dropped my EB pledge yesterday because I figured we’d never make it to the stretch goal. Then again, I was interested more because they were cheap than because I really wanted them.

I feel them AEST feels. I have a 7am shift at work too, x_x

what does Temperance have to do with what appears to be an amateur breast exam? Is it a visual pun on "two cups" or what? Thanks for the giggle - I nearly choked on my breakfast. In the same way that playing card decks should have at least 52 cards with recognisable faces and pips, I only...

The back would be nice on a different deck, but the whole campaign felt skeevy even before I read the posts here. I was actually wondering if it was another weird Bocopo project given their recent track record but it didn’t seem like their usual campaigns. Thanks to all the scamwatchers above!

Looks like it’s finally time for me to hop on board the Gio train!

Alex Chin’s Apothecary and Steve Minty’s Hana Signature campaigns opened my eyes to the existence of this niche of amazing card art. The Planets series were the first cards I actually bought... and now it’s derailed from there.

Ooh this is quite nice, seems like it’s based on this game: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/87 ... board-game

P.S. TMI? I can't help it, I talk alot! HAHA Less about “too much information” and more about “the same information, repeatedly”. Your two main points seem to be that MPC is not that bad (and reasons why), and that if you have enough support in your current campaign, then your future campaigns can ...

I actually like the pips/courts of the white reserve deck, it’s the tuck I’m not a fan of - I’d rather stick the white cards in the black tuck. The campaign really is confusing though, it sort of feels like it was written twice in different ways and then the creator included both versions one after ...

I’m a bit concerned that the goal for this campaign will be too high to fund. I imagine most people who wanted a deck would have got it in the last campaign, and the golden/sepia deck, which would be my only incentive to buy more cards. doesn’t unlock until $15000. The art book alone probably wouldn...

If only there wasn’t the weird MOUNT TAI text plastered everywhere, I’d probably be in for a pair. I do love the calligraphy brush holder deck boxes though. Hmm...

A lot of potential here and I like the concept for this campaign, but I prefer the draft drawings to the finalized artwork. The end result is polished but the artwork seems too simple after vectorizing the sketches and there is a lot of white space on pretty much all of the faces. The final version...
