On the Cards

First Published 2011

Both a game and a way to create games, On The Cards is a window into the possibilities offered by a traditional deck of cards.

On The Cards comprises a deck of 50 or so rule cards that define how cards move from the (shared) deck, through players' hands and into tricks, and how cards are scored at the end of the round. By combining these rule cards, you can create thousands of games!

The Fixed Rule cards (black) are always used. In each round, the rules on the Fixed Rule cards are combined with the rules on one card of each other type: Deal, Aim, Card Play and Trick Taking.

  • Deal (red) defines how the dealer will distribute cards.
  • Aim (yellow) defines the objective of the round and how it will be scored.
  • Card Play (green) defines how the players will play cards.
  • Trick Taking (blue) defines how tricks will be won.

In later games you can add Optional Twist cards (mauve) and Double cards to spice things up.

Nine Worlds Medusa Games Prototype

Prototype of the latest game concept being playtested by Medusa Games. In Nine Worlds the players are candidates attempting to become gods in the Norse universe.

Each player comes from one of the Nine Worlds. They each have a special power linked to their race. Each world has its own special power all the players can use by visiting that world.

Each turn players may undertake a challenge to impress the gods.

They can also appeal to the gods for favours, obtain powerful artifacts and magic potions and take on each other in combat.

Who will impress the gods most and become the new god in Asgard?
