STARDECK is a set of sci-fi themed playing cards designed and illustrated by Lunar Saloon. Instead of featuring royalty, STARDECK’s face cards represent four archetypal science fiction factions; Spades are aliens, Clubs are space marines, Diamonds are members of a mega corporation, and Hearts are, naturally, robots.
“We struck out to create STARDECK after unsuccessful attempts at finding a well-designed set of sci-fi themed playing cards. Most are based off of existing properties like Star Wars or Star Trek, and their face cards are decorated with uninspiring photography. In response, we created our own world and filled it with richly illustrated characters in the style of classic card art.”
