A few months back, while looking for inspiration for a cultural workshop, I came across a brilliant breakdown of India’s card game legacy. The Mughal influence, in particular, was something I hadn’t expected to be so deep. If you’ve got a minute, this article might be the perfect starting point: https://www.nagpurtoday.in/how-mughal-co...s/03111454. It details how court life gave rise to games like Ganjifa, which were handmade and richly designed. Helped me appreciate these games as more than just pastimes—they were cultural artifacts in motion.
