Remember playing the card game, “War”? Each player flips a card and the winner of each “battle” takes the cards. Whoever ends up with all the cards wins the game. Easy, fun, and great for all ages! Top Trumps kept all the good attributes of War and enriched it with details and tie-ins to popular movies, events, and people. It is still easy, fun and great for all ages, but now it’s even more interesting.
Top Trumps cards come in so many different editions, everyone can find a favorite. Here are just a few:
- Lord of the Rings
- Spiderman
- Moshi Monsters
- Hello Kitty
- Deadliest Predators
- Dr. Who
- The Simpsons
- The Royal Wedding
How to play? Simple! You deal out all the cards. Each card has different categories with a point value. One player chooses a category and says it out loud with the number of points his card shows for that category. Everyone else checks their cards and the person with the highest points in that category wins the “battle” and collects the cards from everyone else. In the example of Elton John vs Prince Charles, if the play chose the category “Big Day Rating”, Prince Charles would win. But, if they chose “Age”, Elton John would win! Then on to the next cards, and it’s someone else’s turn to choose a category and play continues. Whoever wins all the cards wins the “war”.
Each card has a different person or thing associated with the theme and fun facts about it. Oh, and from a Mom-who-hates-to-pick-up toys-and-search-for-lost-pieces, I love that each deck comes in a heavy duty plastic case. Perfect for storage!
