On Kickstarter, Epoch Chronicles (Limited Emerald Edition) Playing Cards

Step into a world where time bends and history unfolds, Epoch Chronicles playing cards by Nadine Sophie is a fully custom deck that journeys through four distinct eras: the Medieval age of the 10th century, the artistic grandeur of the Renaissance in the 16th, the transformative spirit of the 19th-century Industrial Revolution, and the bold edge of 1980s Punk and Retro-Futurism. Each card in the deck is fully hand-drawn, a visual narrative that reflects the fashion, architecture, and atmosphere of its respective time period.

Inside, the card backs echo the deck’s opulent theme with a custom emerald and red design that mirrors the detailing of the tuck boxes. Aces and court cards all share a unified illustrative style, immersing you in each epoch’s unique visual identity. 

The Spades represent the Medieval period, Hearts reflect the Renaissance, Diamonds capture the 19th-century Industrial Revolution, and Clubs channel the neon rebellion of Punk and Retro-Futurism. Every court card includes era-specific attire and backdrops, with architectural elements anchoring each figure in time.

Two original jokers accompany the deck, drawn in the same expressive style as the courts. This is the creator’s sixth card project and third poker deck, printed once again by trusted manufacturer WJPC and fulfilled via NextSmartShip for a reliable delivery experience.

The Limited Emerald Edition is a premium collector’s item, housed in a luxurious emerald silk tuck box adorned with gold and red foil, detailed embossing and debossing, and sealed with an individually numbered black sticker. Limited to 1,000 decks.

The Gilded Black Edition, limited to just 200 decks, takes the concept even further. Featuring the same intricate artwork, this edition is wrapped in a black silk tuck box with the same premium detailing and a striking red sticker seal. Each card is finished with gilded edges, enhancing its allure as a high-end collectible.

Printed by WJPC on 310gsm German black core card stock with an air linen finish, the cards are crafted for both beauty and performance. Pledge starts at $12 on Kickstarter.
