THIRTEEN is building relationships with a small number of independent stockists in Aotearoa New Zealand dedicated to gifts that are fun, clever and delightful. 

Our first stockist edition arrives in November

The edition currently on sale here, the Let’s Get Playing! Edition, is a direct-to-player edition. It is not a trade release.

Our first stockist release is the Aotearoa Playlist Edition, which opens on 13 November 2026. It is the same 54-card game with fully illustrated card faces with original illustrations representing 13 iconic Kiwi songs. It is the edition built for a shelf: it looks like a gift, it demonstrates in two minutes, and it holds a price. For an order of 12 or more we provide you with a branded POS box to hold 12 of the decks. 

What the offer looks like

  • Fully sale or return. If it does not move, we collect it. As these are limited editions, we want anything not sold back. 
  • Low minimum order. Six decks gets you started.
  • A counter display unit that holds twelve decks in a small footprint, for stores that want it at the till or to store on a shelf. 
  • Two free demo decks for your team. We encourage your staff to play it.
  • A healthy margin. Confirmed pricing and margin come with the line sheet.
  • GS1 barcode. Every pack carries a registered EAN-13 barcode and scans straight into your POS.

About the game

THIRTEEN is a 54-card game for 2 to 8 players, ages 7 and up, playing in 10 to 20 minutes. It is deceptively simple and delightfully cunning: easy enough that a table understands it in one hand, sharp enough that they want another. Designed in Wellington, printed in Greymouth, and co-designed by Angus and Caroline Rennie.
