Hi everyone!
We’re excited to share some BIG news with all of you. As you know, we’ve been hard at work since the success of The Big Shuffle, and today we’re thrilled to introduce our newest game, Magusha: Clash of the Commanders!
Magusha is an Afro-fantasy 1v1 tactics card gameset in the vibrant and magical world of Padun, where players battle for dominance using powerful Commanders, unique abilities, and deep strategy.
Join Us at PAX Unplugged
We’re taking Magusha on the road for its public premiere at PAX Unplugged this weekend! Here’s what’s happening:
Exclusive Demos: Be among the first to play Magusha at Booth #4135 and experience the intense, tactical gameplay that’s perfect for both seasoned strategists and new players alike.
World Premiere Faction Reveal: Discover the world of Padun through stunning visuals and a special unveiling of Magusha’s factions: The Imonjani and Kilishe.
Kickstarter is Coming: Our next Kickstarter campaign for Magusha launches this February! But you can RSVP now for exclusive early-backer bonuses through our pre-sale page.

Why We’re Excited About Magusha
After the incredible support you gave us during The Big Shuffle, we knew we wanted to create something truly special for our next project. Instead of black and white, we used the whole pallet developing what we imagine Afro-Fantasy to be. Magusha blends everything we love:
Fresh and original Art
Quick but strategic gameplay
Immersive storytelling
And a deep connection to culture and community.
This game is a love letter to fans of tactics, Afro-fantasy worlds, and unforgettable card battles.
Join Us on This Journey
We’d love for you to be part of Magusha’s story, whether you’re joining us at PAX Unplugged Booth #4135 or supporting us through our pre-sale page. Stay tuned for more updates as we march toward our Kickstarter launch in February!
Thank you for being the best community a team could ask for—we couldn’t do this without you.

Thank you, everyone, for all your support. Without you, we would not have been such an explosive success. Now that we have officially sent out The Big Shuffle to all our backers, we are gonna burn the road to our favorite conventions! Come see us dressed to the nines at TooManyGames, at Oaks, PA, from June 23rd to June 25th. The first of many stops along the hard highway of the convention circuit. If you have not received your copy of The Big Shuffle or tracking information, please reach out to us via [email protected].
For our next Big move, we are shuffling the cards with a brand new game. Let us introduce, Oddware - A Sci-fi Visual Novel about quirky androids in space! It is quite the departure from our first game, but we love experimenting with games as a medium. We have officially launched our Steam page for the game, so please wishlist Oddware for news about our exciting new project!
While that's cooking, please check out some of our friend’s great games that are currently live on Kickstarter!
Have you seen the Wearable strategy game, Worn Wanderers? Cleromancy Games is an amazing company that was invaluable in the creation of The Big Shuffle and its expansions. They have developed a game just as creative as ours that is and attaches to backpack, Convention lanyard, or playmat! It's a wonderful way to meet and interact with gamers at conventions, game stores, or even your local park. They have 2 days left on their Kickstarter campaign, so let's give them a high sign of love and back them today!
We met Steve and Ben from Gem Blenders at PAX EAST this year; they are a great team and are very passionate about Gem Blenders, a TCG about Gem blending battles. We love to test new games and see their designs, so we gave Gem Blenders a shot and had a blast playing it. When we heard they had a Kickstarter, we wanted to back the project and have our own copy of this shiny gem of a game. Gem Blenders has been funded and keeps unlocking awesome stretch goals we can't wait to have. Be sure to check out their Kickstarter!
Check out these amazing projects, and thank you again for all the support! Want more of the rumble? Follow our socials for more upcoming news and events!

Introduction
Hello all! We thought we would give one giant update for the end of the year. The biggest one being that we have some hard timelines for the 2nd Fulfillment Wave.
Update On Timeline
THE BIG SHUFFLE HAS REACHED OUR DISTRIBUTOR! This is fantastic news because that means everything from our manufacturers is now here in the states. Due to the busy nature of the holiday season, our distributor has told us that they will fulfill our orders in the first week of January. We are at the last step and we are excited to continue working with them to ensure all of your orders are fulfilled.
Happy Holidays!
Last but not least, we wanted to give a warm holiday thank you to everyone! This would not have been possible without your continued support and patience. From our early backers to those who supported us through the process, we appreciate everything you all have done to make this unique film noir card game!
As always, if you have any questions or concerns please message us here on Kickstarter or reach out to us over email at [email protected].
Happy Holidays!
