Game:Square Shooters The First Deck of Cards on Dice

Invented in 2010, Square Shooters is the first deck of cards printed on the sides of nine dice. The game is marketed to play a specific game, "Square Shooters," but the dice can also be used to play many regular card games such as rummy and poker. The very first playing cards resembled dominoes: the markings, or "pips," were meant to represent all the possible rolls of a pair of dice--and playing cards carry pips as well. If that is true, then playing cards have come full circle in their history.
