🌸 The Orchid Protocol — Premium Print-and-Play Strategy Card Game

Group Edition (2–4 Players) · Solo Edition (1 Player)

 

Step into the glittering salons, whispered scandals, and dangerous social games of Edwardian London in The Orchid Protocol — a richly atmospheric strategy card game inspired by George Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion.

 

This is not just a card game. It is a battle of wit, reputation, manipulation, alliances, and social survival. Will you rise through society with elegance and brilliance… or collapse beneath the weight of scandal?

 

🎭 A Game of Prestige, Intrigue & Social Warfare

In The Orchid Protocol, players become rival social architects navigating London society in 1912. Conduct lessons, manipulate alliances, survive scandals, attend elite social events, and outmaneuver your rivals in a beautifully designed game of strategy and tension.

Every decision matters.

  • Spend your Grace to secure success at high society events
  • Use Wit to sabotage rivals
  • Build powerful alliances
  • Convert Lessons into Prestige
  • Navigate unpredictable Twist cards
  • Survive devastating Scandal cards

One careless moment can destroy an entire strategy. One brilliant turn can change the game forever.
