A strategic 2-5 players card game of clever tactics & critical consequences, set in a world of spies, sabotage, secrecy and subterfuge.

"The Agents is one of the better games I’ve played this year." Purple Pawn

“The Agents is a unique, in-depth card game that will give your brain a workout." Dad's Gaming Addiction

"Highly tense, very action filled... there is a lot to this little card game and a real joy to put it through its paces." Crits Happen

Personally I'm quite excited about this project. Mainly because the artwork is done by Danny Morison, one of the cooler artists out there at the moment I think!

You can support the Kickstarter here!

Love the art! Seems like a really cool game, plus it's already funded. The command/points system seems really intriguing. Very risk/reward oriented. I'm sure I'd be terrible at it.

**Malika2**

Keep on funding, they'll be forced to come up with more stretchgoals. It will also keep the artist more motivated, the guy needs all the help to truly break through!

I read the mechanics and had to make sure it wasn't made by GMT Games.

**Sinful Hero**

Is that good or bad?

**Malika2**

They're over 70k now, which is pretty kick ass since it means that we'll be getting Dan Morison's artbook as well!

Ugh, I really have to stop lurking around this forum.
I only started Kickstarting because of Dakka.

What are a "normal" deck of cards made from? I don't really know what to think of the term "plastic" when applied to cards.

The game looks cool, 200K with 5 days to go

. Very good of him to go ahead and unlock the plastic cards... whatever that is

. Hopefully one of you can explain it to me!

the puppet deck (malifaux/puppet wars) is the only plastic deck I've used- it was a pretty durable, slightly textured material that's surprisingly easy to shuffle.

Normally the cards are made from, well...whatever paper/cardboard material is used to make cards. Plastic will make a bit more sturdy I guess.

They've passed the $201k mark!
