Mabuse
Because I've noticed an increase in the number of people creating rules to play card games with tarot decks; Tarot Rummy, Tarot Auction, Gnostica/Zarcana, Wizard's Tower etc. along with an interest in traditional Tarock card games, I believe there may be a market for a deck suited (no pun intended) for such a purpose.
This deck is composed of restored and colorized images of 19th century Swiss and German designs. Although intended primarily for gaming purposes, the majors carry images derived from traditional tarot themes and to some extent may be used for readings if reversed meanings are not used. It's a concept similar to the notorious LOTR "tarot deck and card game" which partly inspired the idea for my design, but in my opinion it is better executed as it uses traditional European images and graphic design elements instead of LOTR's "magic the gathering" type of appearance.
I've included a poll on the website as well as a guestbook so readers may submit their opinions.
