The Lion & The Unicorn

In an old English town square, a legendary rivalry reignites!

The Lion & The Unicorn is my reimagining of the classic game Snap, rebuilt for tarot readers, folklorists, and anyone who enjoys a quick game before they put their cards away.

All you need is a Rider-Waite-Smith tarot deck, a flat surface, and possibly some tea and plum cake.

I wanted this to be a game of pattern recognition and reflexes. A new way of aquainting yourself with your favourite deck! The cards are thrown down in rapid succession, when the decisive image appears there is no time to hesitate.

Play becomes a fight for territory and titles, where the sharpest eye and the quickest tongue claim the spoils. Seize everything, you fabulous beast, or surrender what you have won.

The game

• Uses a standard Rider-Waite-Smith tarot deck
• No tarot knowledge is required
• Draws on English folklore
