How to Use Custom Cards in Guilty as Sock
Written by Priya Kapoor
Custom cards in Guilty Is Sock let you bring your own weird brand of justice to the courtroom.
Here’s how it works.
How to Set Up Custom Cards
From the main menu, head into the Custom Cards section. This is where you’ll see any decks you’ve made or downloaded.
In the top-left corner of the lobby, you’ll see a selector where you can assign a custom deck to your role
Defense and Prosecutor roles can both use custom cards
When you host or join a trial, you’ll pick from your available decks before the game starts
Once you’ve picked a custom deck, it’s tied to your role during that session.
How to Create Custom Cards
Custom cards can be built using images and short text prompts, and they’re easy to set up:
Use JPEG images, ideally small and square, to avoid weird cropping
Each card can include a title and optional description
The card image shows up in court when you present it, so be smart... or chaotic
Decks can be saved and swapped, so you can prep themed ones for different kinds of sessions.
How to Use Custom Cards in Court
During a trial, only the Defense and Prosecutor can present cards.
Once the Judge bangs the hammer and the light turns green, it’s your turn
Click a card from your deck to present it as evidence
The card appears on-screen, including the image and any text you added
You can also combo cards with voice roleplay for maximum effect
Players watching can see the card image and react live. It’s fully integrated into the court session.
Tips for Custom Decks
Keep image files small, square, and high contrast for better readability
Themes are fun: meme decks, inside jokes, or parody courtroom drama
Share decks with friends by copying the files—they load locally
The game doesn’t limit you on content, so you’re free to make it as ridiculous (or serious) as you want.

Final Blurb
Using custom cards in Guilty Is Sock takes the trials from silly to legendary. Once you’ve got your deck made, just assign it before court, play your evidence when the hammer drops, and let the chaos unfold.
It’s one of the game’s best features’ use it well, or use it horribly. Either works.
