About This Deck
The Deck of Many Animated Spells, Tarot and More is a comprehensive collection of card decks developed by Hit Point Press, specifically tailored for use with 5th Edition (5e) tabletop role-playing games. This project expands upon their existing 'Deck of Many' line, introducing animated versions of spell cards, condition cards, and a full tarot deck. The core offering includes multiple spell decks categorized by spell level, from cantrips through level 9, designed to help players and Dungeon Masters visualize and manage in-game effects.
Beyond the spell cards, the campaign notably featured an 'Animated Tarot Deck' and an 'Animated Deck of Many Things,' indicating a broader application of their dynamic card concept. The animation aspect refers to digital GIFs provided alongside the physical cards, allowing users to experience the artwork in motion. This integration of physical and digital components aims to enhance the immersive experience of gameplay and divination.

The campaign successfully raised over $1.3 million from nearly 10,000 backers, demonstrating significant community interest in high-quality, visually engaging accessories for 5e.
