Hi, all!
You can now preorder my latest creation "
The Mystique Deck" with BTC/LTC here:
http://www.nestorbooster.com/mystique_detail.htmlThe Mystique Deck is a special deck of cards designed by myself (
Néstor Romeral Andrés) and worderfully illustrated by
Chechu Nieto. It has 60 cards, with each one depicting three different features (instead of two, like a regular poker deck):
- Colour: Yellow, red, and blue — the 3 primary colours of pigment. There are 20 cards of each colour.
- Suit: Suns, Moons, Arms, and Crowns. Suns and moons are the ‘heaven’ cards. Arms and Crowns are the ‘earth’ cards. There are 15 cards of each suit. These suits are the same as in Piecepack, thus making the deck compatible with it.
- Number: from 1 to 5. Fives are depicted with an open palm, with the corresponding coloured suit in its palm. There are 12 cards of each number.
Moreover, each card has a unique number at the top, from 1 to 60. This is the ‘card number’. Some examples of cards are: Three of red crowns, One of blue suns (also called ace of blue suns), Five of yellow arms (also called palm of yellow arms).
There are two different Mystique decks:
Mystique Gold and
Mystique Silver. Both have the same card distribution; only the backs are different. Some future games will use both decks, so you might consider preordering one of each type. Each deck includes a full colour tuckbox. The decks will be printed in Italy and will have an amazing quality.
The Mystique Deck includes a default game also called
Mystique, but the deck has been designed to be used in different future games. You will be able to download new rules from the nestorgames site as they are uploaded. I'm planning to run a design contest once the first print run is ready, and also generate future games with a computer system (as in Shibumi:
http://nestorgames.com/shibumisamurai_detail.html).
Notes and goodies: In order to get an 'affordable' price, I have to manufacture 100 decks (and this might be the only print run ever!). That's why I've added the game to nestorbooster. Preorders above 100 Eur will receive a nestorgames backpack! Remember that preoders in Bitcoin have a 30% discount instead of 20%. Shipping is only 9 € no matter how many copies you preorder. If you wish to place an order in Bitcoin, please contact me.
