Room One Cards is a playing card publisher made up of magicians, cardists, designers and collectors. It publishes themed playing cards with a lot of work on the tuck box (embossing, foil, die cuts) and organises its catalogue into several lines: its own collections, collaborations with artists and a series devoted to the wonders of the ancient world. Here are the Room One playing cards we have in stock.
How Room One works
Room One produces its own decks and also offers printing, shipping and promotion to other brands. Its catalogue is split into named lines: Room One Collection, a seasonal collecting system in which each set includes a collector's card; Room One Crossover, decks made with magicians, illustrators and other brands; Room One Eon, devoted to the seven wonders of the ancient world; and exclusive editions for its Patreon supporters. It has also released licensed decks, such as the Assassin's Creed ones, and works with partner labels such as Bloom Playing Cards.
Many of its decks come in several versions: a standard one and a special one with extra finishes or a numbered seal. That is why the same title can appear with different names (Classic, Standard, Nucleus…).
The Room One playing cards we stock
Prequel and Sequel
Recommended: Prequel Classic Edition, Sequel Classic Edition
Two decks designed as a pair and devoted to the golden age of American animation. Prequel is the cheerful one, with bright colours and a five-pointed star on the box. Sequel is its dark counterpart: muted tones and suits of bats, skulls, leaves and ghosts. The number cards have an unusual pip layout, which is worth knowing if you plan to play with them.
Eon series
Recommended: Hanging Gardens of Babylon Standard
A tribute to the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, with blues, golds and greens inspired by glazed bricks and ziggurats. The tuck box has embossing, foil and a die-cut window, and the gardens are illustrated on a 55th card.
For collectors
Recommended: Oppenheimer Nucleus
The special edition of the Oppenheimer playing cards: court cards featuring figures from the history of the atomic bomb, number cards styled like an old newspaper, aged gilded edges and an embossed accordion fold-out box. It is the most elaborate of the four.
Room One Cards FAQ
What is the difference between the Classic or Standard edition and the special one?
The standard editions share the card design and have fewer finishes. The special editions add details such as gilded edges or a numbered seal. If this is your first Room One deck, a Classic or Standard is the easiest way to get to know the brand.
Are they good for cardistry or magic?
They are poker-size decks and you can use them, but their strength is the design. For daily practice, the decks in our cardistry decks or magic cards sections are a better fit; keep the Room One for display.
How do I look after a deck with gilded edges?
The gilding on the edges wears with use and friction. Keep it in its box, away from humidity, and shuffle it sparingly. More tips in how to care for playing cards.
Where can I find more decks like these?
In collectible playing cards and premium playing cards. And if you want one as a gift, see our guide on which deck of cards to give.
