Everdeck, The

The Everdeck is a card game system that can be adapted to play many traditional and modern games. It’s a portable travel companion, universal proxy deck, and game designer’s prototyping tool all in one. This isn’t just a deck with extra ranks and suits. Its 120 cards can map to many distinct game systems: Two copies of a standard 52-card deck Two other traditional decks: Tarot and Hanafuda Up to 12 suits or up to 25 ranks (Lost Cities, Coloretto, Arboretum) Multiple or uneven counts of certain ranks (Hanabi, Pairs) Sequential decks (The Mind, 6 Nimmt) Word games (Letter Jam) Social games (Ultimate Werewolf) The Everdeck is designed with a ruthless combinatoral 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.
