New Releases

My name is Ben Cook and I love playing cards. When I was given the opportunity to use a website for the promotion of playing cards, I said “YES” .

This website originally was only about playing cards, not virtually, but with real cards, LIVE. I like playing cards online too, but I also wish to be part of the world-wide-web of people keeping real-life cards as one of the most versatile, portable human games on the planet – no power source necessary!

Expanding the Playing Card Team

Over the last 5 years I have had a lot of requests for info about other non-electronic games. Games for families and kids to play together. Indoor and outdoor games, with more emphasis of getting more communication happening in the family.

Charlotte Harvey has come on board to add her expertise to the family games expansion of the website. As a mum she has much better ideas about the educational and development aspects of children playing games.

My niece and nephew, Charlie and Isabella have also joined our fun-loving team. Their enthusiasm and honesty has been FANTASTIC! Thanks guys.

Let’s get started….

If you are an old campaigner like me, you will know what I’m talking about – if you don’t – well take a risk and have a go.

Switch off, get some cards, shuffle and deal………
