The MhyTom card game

The MhyTom cards were designed to exist for real. Our goal: print a complete deck to play Phoenix, Devil, Chaos and Last Call with real cards, around a real table.

• 9cards revealed
• 4game modes
• 3–10players

The cards

A unique look, somewhere between old playing cards and bar neon. Here are the cards already drawn:

• Ace Table card of Phoenix mode
• King Table card
• Queen Table card
• Joker Counts as the table card
• Red Ace Red version for the Devil and Chaos modes
• Red King Red version for the Devil and Chaos modes
• Red Queen Red version for the Devil and Chaos modes
• Murder Eliminates the player of your choice
• Card back The mood of the bar, on the back of every card

Why a real card game?

You can already play MhyTom with standard playing cards, and many tables do. But three problems come back every night:

• You have to mix several decks. A 54-card deck only has 4 Aces, 4 Kings and 4 Queens. With 4 players you already need 6 of each; with 10 players, 15 of each. You spend a while sorting before you can play.
• The backs are not always identical. When the decks come from different brands, an observant player can tell where a card comes from. For a bluffing game, that is a problem.
• The special cards do not exist. You replace the Devil card with an Ace, the Murder cards with Aces and the Chaos cards with Jokers. It works, but you have to remember it in the middle of a game.

The MhyTom deck fixes all three: enough cards for the whole table, a single back, and real special cards you recognise at a glance once they are flipped.

How many cards for each mode?

Here is what you need today with standard playing cards. The deck is designed around these quantities.

The details for each number of players are in the rules of Phoenix, Devil, Chaos and Last Call. To play tonight, the guide what you need to play tells you how many 54-card decks to plan.

The cards and the app go together

The card game does not replace the app, it completes it. The cards are on the table; the phone draws the table card, spins the virtual cylinder, counts each player's shots and announces the winner. The app will stay free, with or without the card game.

What will be in the box

• The table cardsEnough Aces, Kings and Queens to play with up to 10 players.
• The JokersThey count as the table card.
• The special cardsThe Devil card, the Murder cards and the Chaos cards.
• The rulebookThe simple rules of Phoenix, Devil and Chaos.

How the project will be funded

We are preparing a crowdfunding campaign: everyone will be able to pre-order the game, and printing will start once the goal is reached. The longer the “Notify me” list, the better the chances of this launch.

Want to help right now? Every donation, even a small one, funds the first steps (print proofs, manufacturing).
