The Big Shuffle | A Film Noir Card Game

Created by Previously Pluto

The Big Shuffle is a competitive 2-4 player film noir card game, where you play as 1 of 6 characters, each with their own agenda and unique abilities. Players must use their wit, guile, and influence to outmaneuver their opponents and set their desired scene.

 Out with the old year, in with the new year! Looking back, we have come a long way from our basic home printed prototype to our current game in 2022. With your continued support, we plan to dress up The Big Shuffle to the nines (best card quality, linen finishes, foil edges)! 

We are also very close to hitting our next stretch goal, The Big City Playmat. The playmat will be a neoprene mat that you can roll up. Our background designs are still in development, however when we finish our first thumbnail later this week we plan to share it with the community for a vote!

Only 7 days to go! We are fast approaching the final act of our film noir Kickstarter which ends on Jan 9th 8am EST. Stay tuned for new updates, designs, and events! Thank you all again, and have a great start to the new year!

We can’t believe we have come so far, and we couldn’t have done it without all of you! We plan to make a fun new edition to the game with the introduction of “The Red Light Expansion”, which focuses on the seedier aspects of the city. We plan to engage with the community to help vote on different card names and other elements. Spread the word and keep checking the updates for more information on the expansion progress! Next stop, cards that are as red as this district!

Retailer Update:

In response to messages from retailers, we have created a new pledge tier called “Big Business” for retailers who bulk order copies of the game at a discount. If you know of any local businesses that would be interested in our game, please let us know in the comments or message us directly.
