Sealed away for hundreds of years. Now it is time.
TAKTYK® launches Sunday 24 May 2026 during Invercargill Youth Week celebrations.
Built right here in Southland, TAKTYK® is a competitive, chess inspired card game designed to challenge strategy, literacy, numeracy, and real world thinking through gameplay.
This is more than a release. It is the first time the community gets to experience a system shaped by years of working directly with rangatahi, built for how they actually learn, play, and connect.
Join our release event to meet the creator of TAKTYK®, watch live games in action, and be among the first to experience it, and buy a deck before they all sell out.
Starter decks are $60 incl. GST and come with everything you need to challenge other players.
There will be limited stock on release day, with only 300 starter decks available at launch. 100 Grass, 100 Water, and 100 Fire.
Following release, regular community events will be held where players with decks can battle and compete to win rare, ultra rare, and legendary holographic cards to add to their collection.
TAKTYK® is designed as a fundraising initiative, inviting direct market participation by contributing a portion of sales proceeds to support initiatives and organisations that contribute to the growth and future of young people. The inaugural entities supported at the time of printing include the social enterprise Your Corps®, which focuses on mental health, digital infrastructure, education pathways, employment opportunities, and e waste initiatives, and Insert Coin To Play Charitable Trust™, which helps keep these opportunities free and accessible.
Stay tuned for more info where this event will be taking place by following the Your Corps page.
