Playing Cards and Tables

This datapack has a required resource pack, which can be downloaded from the page for the specific version you are installing!

Custom Playing Cards

This datapack adds a set of custom playing cards featuring Minecraft themed suits and the faces of the Hermits and other Minecrafters as the faces on various face cards and jokers.

The base Deck of Cards is crafted with 6 paper and a red_dye, a cyan_dye, and any colored third dye. This gives a single item that contains 1 of each default card.

The base Deck does not contain any Jokers. To get Jokers, create a Joker Grab Bag with 2 paper, a red_dye, a cyan_dye, and any colored third dye. This will give 4 grab bags, which can be opened by holding right click. Each grab bag contains a Cyan Joker, featuring a random Hermit that's not already included on the face cards, and a Red Joker, featuring a random player that responded to the feedback survey while creating this datapack.

To use these playing cards, you'll need to craft a Card Table - a special table that has 9 slots for placing playing cards. This is crafted with any planks, any colored carpet, and an item_frame in a stack.
