World-renowned visual artist Jean Jullien has launched his first ever card game on Kickstarter and was fully funded in under six hours. However, the target for Dodgy Dogs has now been stretched and there are just nine days left to help it come to life.
Created in collaboration with the creative games company, Yolky Games, Dodgy Dogs is a family-friendly, fast-paced and fun card game that's "simple, affordable and exquisitely made". The Kickstarter campaign is full of collectable items, from limited edition packs, limited edition signed prints, and even a couple of chances to have your dog illustrated by Jean Jullien and featured in the game.
Dodgy Dogs is all about the comical world of naughty dogs. This is however not your typical pack of cards. Jean Jullien has meticulously illustrated each card with his distinctive black brush strokes, light-heartedly drawn characters and hued simplicity.
"I met the Yolky Games founders at the launch of my book Under Dogs and did a session of dog portraits that was a lot of fun," explains Jean. "We had a mutual love for dogs and a sense of humour so when they approached me with the idea of a card game I was in straight away."
Pippa Dunn of Yolky Games says: "We’ve long been massive fans of Jean Jullien’s work and couldn’t be more proud of what we’ve created together. It’s a fun game and it’s a work of art, which is just what Yolky Games is all about."
