In India, card games have been a part of people’s socio-cultural lives for a long time. In fact, card games have been believed to be brought into India in the 16th century and at that time, card games were considered royal games since they were played only in the royal courts only and it was the Mughals who played card games in their courts for the first time. As the card games became popular among the royal families, the common people also wanted to try them out, and to help them, local manufactures developed simpler cards to help them experience the games.
Since then, card games started to become more and more popular and now every household in the country has at least one variant of card games that they love to play. In India, most people might have played at least one card game in their childhood or grew up watching their elders play.
