From the creators of Osmos comes Karmaka, a competitive card game that plays out over multiple lives.

Players begin the game as lowly Dung Beetles. In life after life (hand after hand) they work their way up the Karmic Ladder, racing to see who will achieve Transcendence first!

Score points to ascend while sowing the seeds of your next life, and – if necessary – sabotage your rivals. But remember, what goes around comes around, and your actions have consequences in this life… and the next.

We launched Karmaka with a successful Kickstarter campaign (Over 1100% funded! Woooo!) in early 2016! The game happily won several awards along the way, and we delivered a first run to our backers that Autumn. The first edition sold out soon afterwards.
Good news though – a 2nd edition from Chronicle Books released in May of 2020!

If you’re interested in further news on the game, please sign up for our newsletter. We won’t mail you often, nor will we share your address. Thanks for your interest!
