"Only those who pass the nine tests can enter the Mictlan. Only he who is worthy will live eternally with his ancestors in The Kingdom of the Dead."

Welcome to El Reino de los Muertos - Expert Edition, an artistic and cultural project that celebrates life and death in the Mexican culture. This project is not only a card game, it is a narrative, a desire to recover and exalt Mexican traditions.

In this tribute - to our ancestors and heroes, to Guadalupe Posada and to the great Mexican engravers; to Death, to Life - you'll find iconic characters from Mexican culture, from classics like La Catrina, to revolutionary heroes and pre-Hispanic gods.

We retake iconic elements of Mexican culture, from pre-Hispanic times to the present day, and adapt them congruently to the classic language of the Poker deck, with a deep respect for the aesthetics of our country and the style of the Court card figures.

We also intended to create a balanced and eloquent graphic mix that harnesses the power of the traditional aesthetics of the Day of the Dead and expresses itself through the language of Poker figures to achieve a style never seen before in this type of object.

Customer reviews for El Reino de Los Muertos Playing Cards (Expert Edition)

Reviewer

Olivier

Very colorfull, yet on the creapy side. They totally nailed the vibe ! The cards are of very good quality, very smooth. There is a double back in the deck, I wish they aslo included a blank or double face but that is just my preference...
My cards came in with quiet a bow on the whole deck. A bit annoying but that has also its avantages. I don't know if i got unlucky or it is in purpose. They will get in shape if i use them more, so no worries.
all good.

I have to confess that I have yet to open this deck. The reason being that I bought this to add to a small collection of similar decks that will reside in a purpose made frame. I love anything related to Day of the Dead art whether it be playing cards or related objects.
Having said that, I did get to handle a deck of these fascinating cards owned by a friend of mine and was hooked by the art and finish. Not really thinking about use and handling on this occasion, just the artwork, it is a great looking deck and one of those you must have without understanding the reason why.
Now i'm writing this, i'm tempted to purchase another deck just to open and try out properly.
Recommended.

  • Ricky asks: So, I backed these cards on Kickstarter, but, I never received my rewards. Has there been any communication with the creator about fulfilling the orders that he took before he sold you guys a bunch of decks?
