Cards can make a difference

Join us at Gay Cards, the place where fun and diversity meet. Our products are a celebration of queer culture and community, offering unique perspectives and a whole lot of laughter. At Gay Cards, our mission is to create an inclusive and welcoming space that celebrates LGBTQ+ culture. We're proud to offer unique card games designed by queer kids that are not only entertaining but also promote empathy, conversation, and social awareness.

Our Story

Here at Gay Cards we are passionate about creating card games and products that are anything but boring. We started by playing countless rounds of Go Fish during lunch, and realizing that we could do better. We could make it our own. Since then, we have been designing products that cater specifically to the LGBTQIA+ community, though all can enjoy them. We feel everyone should be included when they play a card game, no matter who you are. We're not just making games, we're building a community.

Setup
Shuffle the deck and deal 4 cards to each player. Leave the remainder of the cards in the center of your playing area as a draw pile.
How to Play
The player who most recently ate a donut begins, and the play passes to the left. On your turn, draw one card from the draw pile. You can play up to one action card at any point during your turn. You can also edit, delete, or create up to 2 boxes. Boxes must be arranged in one of three ways:
             A run: a string of numbers in a row (example: 2345, any kind of donut). You can               add on to either end.             A book: all the same numbers (example: 4 cards with a 1, any kind of donut).             A set: all the same kind of donut (example: 5, 2, 3, and 1, all pansexual donuts).Boxes must have 2-5 cards in them at the end of your turn. When editing a box, you may add and/or remove up to 3 cards, as well as adding or removing a “No Stealsies!” card. When you are creating a box, you can add 2-5 cards. When deleting a box, all cards return to your hand.If a player steals card(s) from your box, you can rearrange the box to try to keep it on the table. Any cards that can not be put in the new box, return to your hand.Ending the game
Once a player draws the last card in the draw pile, that player takes their last turn before ending the game.
Scoring
Each card in a box in front of you, not including “No Stealsies!” cards, counts as one point toward your team. Each card still in your hand is -1 point from your team. The team with the highest amount of points wins.

GAY FISH RULES

Setup
First, Everyone must pick one number or face card (1-10 and drag cards) that they feel applies to them or any card in the deck. If you get a set of those cards, you get double points. Deal 6 cards each for 2-3 players. For 4-6 players deal 5 cards. Leave the remainder of the cards as a deck in the center.
How to Play
Player to the left of the dealer will start. On your turn, you will ask someone for all the cards of one kind that you have in your hand. (“Clara, give me all of your Pansexuals!”) Then they will either accept or deny depending if they possess this card. If they don’t, they will say “Gay Fish!” and you will draw 1 card. If you draw the card you just asked for, you have ‘Fished your wish’ and you will get another turn. Otherwise, it will be the next person’s turn. When you obtain four of the same cards, you put them down and get a point, but if you get a set of the card you chose at the very beginning of the game, you get two points. If at any time you run out of cards in your hand, you will draw one card from the center and play will continue as usual. When the cards run out in the center, play continues, but when gay fish is called, it is automatically the next person’s turn, without the first player drawing a card. If you have a homophobic in your starting hand or draw one at any point, you will yell “Homophobic!” and put it down on the table. You will not be permitted to draw another card.
Ending the game
When you run out of cards and there are no more to draw, you are out of the game, and spectate as a ghost. When the cards run out in the center, play continues, but when gay fish is called, it is automatically the next person’s turn. When all cards are gone, and no one has cards in their hands, the player with the most points wins.
