The Postcard Game concept was directly borrowed from Against the Odds, who made a great job of widespreading the small factor game.
A small map and a limited number of counters, all that can fit in a DIN A6 sized postcard, with the rules on the back of the map. The challenges of such a format are quite interesting to handle but the possibilities that they open are enormous.
We are always open to translations in other languages, so if you see a postcard that lacks your language and you want to submit a translation, we will be happy to add it.
All our postcard games are freely downloadable but maybe you can consider donate to support our creation process!
