Fancy a deck that doubles as a jigsaw puzzle? This clever deck takes its inspiration from Vincent Van Gogh's famous painting, The Starry Night. The artwork on the card faces is all taken from the painting, and all the cards can be pieced together to make a single giant picture, thus effectively functioning as a large puzzle. Yet each card has clear indices so it's still something you can use for card games too. Definitely unique and out of the ordinary, this set of playing cards is a perfect choice for fans of classic art and paintings. I love the idea of turning a custom deck into a larger puzzle like this, using polyptych (panoramic) art.
Got this as a mystery deck with an order. It was a deck I had previously overlooked, since the concept sounded tacky to me. In actuality, it has quality stock, vibrant colors, and the pips show up surprisingly well. I plan on coming up with a competitive card game centered around putting the puzzle together, and the excitement from that makes me wish there were more decks like this one.
Neat idea for a deck. Putting the puzzle together is also a pleasant pass time. Due to absence of pips it is not well suited for magic tricks, but I think there must be a good effect to be invented with these cards. Haven't found it yet but a theme with a reveal of a missing card/ puzzle piece when the puzzle is magically solved by dealing in order after a "shuffle" is my current thought.
In the mean time other magi may have an idea!
Really nice deck of cards! I didn’t know this was a deck until I got it as a mystery deck deal. I don’t open a lot of my decks so I can’t say how they feel but reading about it, I say this is one for the collection!
When a playing card collector is married to a jigsaw puzzle fan, this type of fun is welcomed by both. We indeed had a very enjoyable time solving. The cards have a pleasant two-way back design, the extra cards are well done, and cut and feel are nice.
While the effort to source the indices and indicator pips directly from Van Gogh's pen and brush are interesting and laudable, the results are a bit murky. The queen of spades, for example, is nearly indecipherable as such. This deck was not really designed for standard gameplay; in that case why not dispense with the light-colored fields behind the indices altogether and make the adjoined puzzle artwork much better as a result? The indifferently designed tuck box is not very inspiring. Despite these shortcomings, the overall experience of the deck is still a positive one, and this deck is a good addition.
