Welcome to Gearlock Games
Independent game designs based on the theories of Finance, Economics, Philosophy, Logic, Literature and every other topic that is covered in my college textbooks that I couldn't sell back to the University.

We hope that you enjoy our card games and that you invite others to play with you. If you enjoy our games, be sure to look on Kickstarter for our future games and help us spread the word on your social networks.
