I like the looks of this one so far. Curious to see when they show more.

I agree that I will probably end up with some of these but Im SERIOUSLY not happy if they truly decide to try to do this as a 52 deck series again.

It seems heavily implied this will follow the structure of their 52 doors project. I don't see why they'd stop until people stop buying, but since I dislike mystery decks, they make the decision easy for me.

I feel the same as well, man...

Even if there is the edition which the deck compiles all the backs of the series, it's just... overwhelming of the fact that you can't get them all unless you are some rich billionaires

There probably will be, there was last time and it was the only one I opened.

I think despite not really caring about playability etc I do like all the backs to match, Id much rather have a few good decks rather than a chance to end up with 6 or 8 completely pedestrian ones at random.

And plus, look at the top of each of the different deck…

I can bet… if one decided to go All-In, all those deck’s boxes will form an image

Unless you have $500 in your pocket, at least… you will never get to see this illustration formed using all of the decks in Zoo52 Blind Mystery Event

Hopefully this artwork is also shown as an extra card, but I won’t expect too much for it to happen, knowing them

So how does this work? Are they all completely unique decks? Or is it just the tuck and backs that change?

Just like Room 52x52...

All the faces are uniformed, only the backs - Jokers - tuck boxes that are different based on the animal/dinosaur

Thanks - wasn't familiar with that project. Will these be sold individually if I just want one? Or is it a set only thing?

Eh, if the price of a deck is reasonable I might grab a few. Definitely don’t need 52, lol.

I like them all - and like the random aspect…

so to maximize my participation in the concept I will have to buy 51 decks and see which one I don’t get

Aargh, that is oddly troubling to think of the 51 boxes set out to show the combined image but with just one deck missing

If we’re dealing with statistical probabilities, you’re going to be short a lot more than one deck, since you’re almost certainly going to have many duplicates.

Oh - now we are talking my language - so I can try to calculate how many singles I would need to buy to end up just 1 short of a set…

should be 206 decks ;)

Using some fancy formulas, ChatGPT puts the order number at about 230 for a 50% chance at completing the set. A 95% chance will cost over 400.

If the 52x52 campaign on KS is any indicator, they will offer the full set as a bundle:

Allin Set
HK$ 3,000
Included are 54 decks of non-repeating Room 52×52 and 1 deck of manuscript collection decks.
Retail Price $500
KS Price $385

You could guarantee the outcome by purchasing this and then throwing one deck away.

Well, yeah, but that would be the easiest and cost effective way to get the full set. What fun is that? 😉

I had the formula set to attempt to get exactly one less than the full set - the highest chance to get 51 and no more - as per the game at hand ;)
