Custodia / Obsesseo - The I.33-Inspired Card Game!

7/19/2026

0 Comments

 
As many of you know, I’m passionate about sharing the incredible fencing system of I.33 with as many people as possible. One thing I’ve learned over the years is that everyone absorbs information differently. Some people thrive in structured classes, others enjoy diving into books or blog posts, and some learn best through hands-on experiences. Finding new and engaging ways to connect people with I.33 has become one of my favorite challenges.
​
Today, I’m thrilled to announce Custodia / Obsesseo—an educational card game designed to make learning the core techniques of I.33 fun, approachable, and easy to pick up. Whether you're a seasoned HEMA practitioner or someone discovering the manuscript for the first time, the game encourages players to recognize guards, understand counters, and reinforce the tactical relationships that make I.33 such a fascinating fencing tradition.

The artwork, created by the incredibly talented Ashley White, reimagines the manuscript's iconic illustrations in a vibrant, cartoon-inspired style that is both charming and instantly recognizable. Every card has been carefully designed not only to look great, but also to teach. By clearly highlighting the techniques each action counters according to the manuscript, Custodia / Obsesseo transforms every game into a learning experience while still delivering fast-paced, competitive fun.
​
The game features an engaging solo mode as well as a 1v1 mode, so whether you are killing time between pools at your next tournament or looking for an engaging HEMA-themed game to teach others about historical fencing, be sure to get yourself a copy of Custodia / Obsesseo!
