D.J. PigottWhat happens when you mix a passion for design with a love of probability? When you add a fascination with cultural history to an affection for the combinatorial?
New games in traditional styles.
New Tradition Games has taken established systems of symbolism and explored their combinatorial space to make games that offer new ways to play, afford new strategies, start their own tradition.
Our research into games has revealed a rich hinterland of old or lost games well overdue for a new edition. Where necessary, we've invented new rule plays for old card packs.
We have also made playable versions of historical card packs for your pleasure. Now you can have a game of Karnöffel with our Clositer pack, play Noddy with our Rowley Pack.
Rather than rely on scans or photographs, we have recreated these designs by studying how the originals were made with compass, line, & protractor. Old colours have been brought alive again through research into the history of inks
