Ok this deck takes the cake as the worst I've ever seen.

I'm having flashbacks of Karateka on the Apple II when I was in elementary school.

So do people interested in making playing cards these days go onto Kickstarter and see things like the Federal 52 deck, and then look at their own work and think "Yeah this is plenty good enough."

Mystifying.

Samurai has been done before but they could have at least put A LOT more effort into making a deck than this.

Dont worry, i dont think any japanese would be proud of this deck, much less pledge for it. They have the most intricate things over there, this is a completely different world from the standards the japanese have.

I actually had the urge to rub feces on my computer screen when I saw this but then I thought it might make them look better and I might pledge by a mistake

The whole, Ronin, Daimyo and Geisha idea is pretty interesting though. Too bad it came out like this, I would prefer normal pips instead of the coins, chopsticks, cherry blossoms and blood?
