How many cards?

54-card playing cards with cute queer characters:

  • Four suits of 13 cards
  • Two Jokers

  • What's special about this deck?

    Each suit is dressed according to a queer subcultures: Diamonds in drag, Spades in Leather, Clubs in Clubwear, and Hearts in.. nothing at all, they’re naked! A new character joins the party on each card, for a total of 54 lovable lil' queer characters across the deck.

  • What games can we play with it?

    Perfect for queer Poker nights, Rummy raves, Crazy Eight kikis, Blackjack balls and Texas Hold Me’s ;) Here are more of our favorite games you can play with the deck.

  • What order are the cards in?

    In our deck, Queens trump Kings. But you can play however you like :)

  • Who invented playing cards? And when?

    We read a book on this, so you don't have to. The TLDR: most likely, people in what is now India in 700/800 AD created playing cards as a more transportable version of chess.

I don't even really play cards and I still want to buy more of these

This deck is incredible - there's a unique, equally fun, piece of art on each card. Can you sell posters of these?? I'd love to buy large prints for my home!

Hey Lizzy, actually yes, Rory sells the original prints! Check out his website - or the bookshop Ivallan's here in Berlin, I know they carry them too. Thanks again for your order, and the review. ✨

Vielen Dank A.! Wir freuen uns, dass du Rorys Spielkarten auch liebst.

Modern approach to classic playing cards

Instead of the traditional deck of cards ,this one shows all kinds of gender, body types and queer persons. A great gift for everybody who is interested in a diverse and inclusive society.

Thank you, Isabella! We're so glad they resonate with you. Have fun!
