Steven ★★★★★

Didn't expect the court cards to tell an actual story, but each suit follows its own beast through the deck. The illustrations hold up even when you're squinting at them mid-game, which says a lot.

Sofia ★★★★★

The artwork on all 54 cards is genuinely gorgeous, and each suit tells its own little story with the beasts. My kids keep picking favorites and arguing over who gets to hold the dragon.

Elizabeth ★★★★★

Got these for our weekly game nights and the 54 illustrations genuinely make each hand feel like part of a story. The fantastical beasts on the face cards are detailed enough that we keep pausing to actually look at them. Shuffles fine too, no complaints after a month of play.
