DECIPHER e-cards


Decipher's exciting new game, the Jedi Knights Trading Card Game, is just over the horizon! Everybody on the Jedi Knights team is hard at work to bring players the best Star Wars card gaming experience ever. This means incredible gameplay, unprecedented imagery, a learning curve very friendly to new players and open-ended possibilities.

This also means, for you cyber-readers, being part of the whole process. And to that end, I'll bring you, as often as possible, a Jedi Knights Design Diary Entry. You'll learn here, step by step, what the designers and artists involved with Jedi Knights are working on. I will sometimes throw in sales data and material like release dates and packaging information (when I can get my hands on such things), but most of the time the Entries will center around Product Development and the Art Department.

Please don't hesitate to email me at francisl@decipher.com if you'd like to read about a particular aspect of the development of Jedi Knights - or for any other reason, for that matter.
