These Pixel playing cards are a fun reinvention of the classic deck. The Pixel Poker Card deck is designed so that all of the shapes and even the characters look like colorful eight-bit retro gamer icons. Even the backing of each card has been redesigned to look like pixelated artwork.
The Kings, Queens and Jacks all look like cute little drawings, rather than the imperious looking sketches they usually are. Even the suit symbols are adorable appealing. The hearts' symbol, for example, is particularly reminiscent of the life icons often seen in older video games.
Each deck of pixel playing cards comes in its own clear plastic case and is a fun nostalgic tribute for any gamer or computer nerd.
