Welcome.


About us

We are an independent publisher of card games based in Brighton.

All our decks are printed in the UK and no AI is used to make them. We have a small team designing, testing and making them. Each deck is hand-signed by the artist.

There are storytelling decks, card games and a tarot deck, and we are working on more!

What’s New?

  • How to use CROWDS to tell your stories.

    Our new storytelling deck comes with a little set of instructions to get you started. Here they are – along with a couple of small crowds to get you started.

  • CROWDS for pre-order!
    We made a new storytelling deck: CROWDS! The idea is simple: what a storyteller needs is an audience. A good crowd gives you inspiration. You can look at them and guess what they will find exciting. You can ask them for suggestions, and if you’re brave enough invite them to take on a part. Pre-order your deck now – we can’t wait to hear what you’ll do with them!
  • LIVESTREAM – Little Ghost
    Join us for our Friday livestream where Chris will be drawing and chatting to Viv about Little Ghost, betonmond’s spooky little bluffing game.
  • LIVESTREAM – Wizard Work!
    Chris Riddell is chatting live to Viv about “Wizard Work”, the stategic family game about magical job opportunities designed by Kevan Davis and illustrated by Chris. There will be live wizard drawing.
  • Prototyping Wizard Work
    Let me show you the prototypes for our first card game, Wizard Work. The finished deck is a beautiful thing, with intricate ink and watercolour illustrations by Chris Riddell. But, as is proper, it started out as a bunch of paper scraps and a spreadsheet.
