The complete set of 78 cards with golden foil on both sides (22 Major Arcana and 56 minor arcana) in a black silk satin pouch with Keymaster sigil stamped on the front.

All cards have gold foiled graphics on the front and the back. The cards are designed to distinguish immediately the Major Arcana from the Minor Arcana when you do spreads. The 22 Major Arcana have golden border.

The number cards are a fusion of french suits and latin suits: the latin suits appears as golden sigils on top of the french pips. The illustrations of the court cards (Jack, Queen, King) comes from the poker size variant "Cartomancer" (2018-2019) and additional 4 knights have been illustrated with the same style to complete the set of 78 cards.

The Agenda Playing Cards Facade (henceforth Agenda Red) continues the tradition we have established in our earlier projects, Agenda Playing Cards (aka V1), Mini Agenda, and the recently funded Agenda Playing Cards Redux (aka Agenda Blue) - translating abstract concepts related to change, transformation, ideology into concrete visual representations embedded in playing card designs. The idea for Agenda Red came to us in the middle of our hugely successful Agenda Blue campaign (we have our ups and downs for that campaign if you are acquainted with what has happened). There was a realization that there are still many other ways we can play with the ideas and concepts visually using the playing card medium. In fact, we did not just spawn Agenda Red, we are also working on an Agenda series that will include at least another 2 playing card projects. The rest of the series will feature exploration of other related concepts and new, exciting design and colour schemes. The success of Agenda Red will serve as catalyst to complete the entire series.

Making a point without actually expressing what one has in mind or worse, making a different point from what one has in mind with the intention to mislead, is the key message that Agenda Red is representing. The reasons for not expressing what one has in mind can range from the innocuous ("I am shy," "I am just trying to keep my opinions to myself") to the malicious ("The media is -- really, the word, I think the best term I've come up with -- is fake"). You can call this having hidden agendas or ulterior motives. Different sides of the same coin. The essence of all these is putting on a front that is not genuine - a facade. In Agenda Red, this idea of a facade is incorporated into the card design through the use of masks. Masks are featured prominently in our newly designed Aces and Court cards. We are quite pleased with ourselves that we managed to cover another key aspect of change and transformation and to represent it through a simple and elegant metaphorical device. We hope you share the same sentiments too.
