    "content": "# Free Card & Board Game Assets: Cards, Dice, Chips, Sounds (CC0, Tested)\n\nPart of the Index Scout \"Game-making assets\" series: free sources organized by genre and engine for people building games with AI. Search the tag `game-assets` for the rest of the series.\n\nDeckbuilders, solitaire, poker-style roguelikes, digital board games and match-3 puzzlers all need the same pieces: a full 52-card deck, card backs, dice, chips, tokens, board icons and the satisfying sounds of shuffling and placing cards. This skill lists five free packs for that, with numbers we got from the files themselves, plus a tested snippet for a seeded shuffle that maps each card to the right file name.\n\n## Tested on our box (2026-10-19)\nWe downloaded each zip from its official kenney.nl page, unzipped it, counted the files, opened every PNG with Python Pillow (2,151 PNGs, 0 broken) and probed every OGG with ffprobe (67 sounds, 0 broken). Every pack's License.txt says CC0 (Creative Commons Zero), so you can use them in commercial games with no credit required.\n\n## The packs\n| Pack | What's inside (counted) | Good for |\n|---|---|---|\n| [Playing Cards Pack](https://kenney.nl/assets/playing-cards-pack) | 285 PNGs: all 52 cards plus back, blank and two jokers, in pixel-art sizes 64, 32 and 16 px, with a tilesheet and a CSV of card names | Pixel-art card games, Balatro-style roguelikes |\n| [Boardgame Pack](https://kenney.nl/assets/boardgame-pack) | 539 PNGs, 12 SVGs, 12 OGG sounds: 52 cards at 140x190 px plus a joker and 15 backs (blue, green, red), 24 dice, 32 chips, pieces in 7 colors | Classic card tables, poker, ludo, checkers-style games |\n| [Board Game Icons](https://kenney.nl/assets/board-game-icons) | 255 icons as PNG at 64 and 128 px and as SVG: dice, cards, pawns, tokens, timers, hexagons, resources, chess pieces, suits | Rules screens, HUDs, tabletop UIs |\n| [Casino Audio](https://kenney.nl/assets/casino-audio) | 55 OGG sounds: card fan, place, shove, slide and shuffle, pack open, chips stack and collide, dice shake and throw | Card and dice feedback sounds |\n| [Puzzle Pack 2](https://kenney.nl/assets/puzzle-pack-2) | 814 PNGs: tiles in 8 colors, balls, paddles, coins, pipes and particles, with spritesheets and SVGs | Match-3, breakout and pipe puzzles |\n\n## File names (so your agent can wire them up)\n- Playing Cards Pack: `PNG/Cards (large)/card_hearts_A.png`, `card_hearts_02.png` through `card_hearts_10.png`, `card_hearts_J.png`, plus `card_back.png` and `card_joker_red.png`.\n- Boardgame Pack: `PNG/Cards/cardHeartsA.png`, `cardHearts2.png` through `cardHearts10.png`, plus `cardBack_blue1.png` through `cardBack_red5.png` and `cardJoker.png`. Dice are `PNG/Dice/dieRed1.png` and so on.\n\n## Seeded shuffle and file mapping (tested in Node 20 and 22)\nA seeded shuffle lets you replay a deal, share a \"daily deal\" seed, or reproduce a bug. We checked that the deck has 52 unique cards, that the same seed gives the same order, and that every card maps to a file that exists in both packs (0 missing).\n\n```js\n// Seeded 52-card deck: shuffle, deal, and map each card to Kenney file names.\nconst SUITS = [\"clubs\", \"diamonds\", \"hearts\", \"spades\"];\nconst RANKS = [\"A\", \"2\", \"3\", \"4\", \"5\", \"6\", \"7\", \"8\", \"9\", \"10\", \"J\", \"Q\", \"K\"];\n\n// mulberry32: tiny seeded PRNG so the same seed replays the same deal\nexport function rng(seed) {\n  return () => {\n    seed |= 0; seed = (seed + 0x6D2B79F5) | 0;\n    let t = Math.imul(seed ^ (seed >>> 15), 1 | seed);\n    t = (t + Math.imul(t ^ (t >>> 7), 61 | t)) ^ t;\n    return ((t ^ (t >>> 14)) >>> 0) / 4294967296;\n  };\n}\nexport const newDeck = () => SUITS.flatMap(s => RANKS.map(r => ({ suit: s, rank: r })));\nexport function shuffle(deck, rand) { // Fisher-Yates\n  const d = deck.slice();\n  for (let i = d.length - 1; i > 0; i--) { const j = Math.floor(rand() * (i + 1)); [d[i], d[j]] = [d[j], d[i]]; }\n  return d;\n}\nexport const deal = (deck, hands, size) =>\n  Array.from({ length: hands }, (_, h) => deck.slice(h * size, h * size + size));\n// Playing Cards Pack: card_hearts_A.png, card_hearts_02.png ... card_hearts_10.png\nexport const pixelFile = c => `card_${c.suit}_${/^\\d+$/.test(c.rank) ? c.rank.padStart(2, \"0\") : c.rank}.png`;\n// Boardgame Pack: cardHeartsA.png, cardHearts2.png ... cardHearts10.png\nexport const boardFile = c => `card${c.suit[0].toUpperCase()}${c.suit.slice(1)}${c.rank}.png`;\n```\n\nUsage: `const hand = deal(shuffle(newDeck(), rng(20261019)), 4, 5)[0]; hand.map(boardFile)` gives five file names you can load as sprites.\n\n## Engine notes\n- **Godot, Unity, Phaser, Three.js**: drop the PNGs in as sprites; for the 64 px pixel cards turn off texture filtering (Nearest) so they stay crisp.\n- **Blender or Unreal**: use the 140x190 cards as image textures on a thin plane for a 3D table.\n- **Sounds**: OGG imports directly into Godot and Unity; if a target platform won't play OGG, convert with `ffmpeg -i in.ogg out.mp3` (we tested this on a Casino Audio file).\n\n## Agent checklist\n1. Download only the packs you need from the official pages above and keep each pack's License.txt in your repo.\n2. Pick one card style (pixel 64 px or the 140x190 classic) and stick with it.\n3. Use the seeded `rng()` so deals can be replayed and tested.\n4. Add a short random pick between the numbered sound variants (for example `card-place-1` to `card-place-4`) so repeated actions don't sound robotic.\n5. Kenney's CC0 doesn't require credit, but \"Kenney (kenney.nl)\" on your credits screen is a nice touch.\n\nSources: Kenney asset pages and the License.txt files in each zip (downloaded 2026-10-19).
