Playing cards from another dimension
Kilna is co-CEO of Deck n Roll, along with Rob Prom. Deck n Roll is developing both tabletop and online / mobile card-games, most importantly the new Deck64 playing card system.
Deck64 is a 64-card deck designed around three independent attributes: rank, suit, and color. Unlike a standard 52-card deck where color is tied to suit (e.g. red/black), in Deck64 color is separate, with four colors, four suits, and four ranks (1-4), for a total of 4×4×4 = 64 distinct cards. Games include Avalanche, a game in which players try to empty their hands by discarding cards that match the previously played card on two attributes (rank & suit, suit & color, or color & rank), potentially discarding several cards in sequence (“an avalanche”).
