EMPTINESS
The Path to “Emptiness” — A Journey from Silence to Game Design
Emptiness:
A Card Game About Letting Go
Emptiness is a simple yet symbolic card game inspired by meditation and inner awareness. The goal is not to collect—but to release. Through play, it reflects the journey of the mind: thoughts, emotions, attachments, and the path to clarity.
Each card represents an inner state:
Disruption: Thoughts and distractions
Energy (Positive/Negative): Intentions that shape your path
Equilibrium: A mind free from reaction
Enlightenment: Realization that helps you let go
The game encourages players to balance, reflect, and observe. Every card is a thought—and the fewer thoughts you cling to, the closer you come to Emptiness.
