killamch89 Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I haven't been the biggest fan of the Card game genre and although I have played a few (mainly Yugioh games and the mini-game on FF8) on different platforms, I have never really gotten into it. I have recently challenged myself to try different genres of games I am not necessarily fond of and see if I find something that changes my perspective towards them. Can you recommend me some card games that are 1)fun to play and 2) won't get ridiculously repetitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 (edited) Triple Triad is always fun. I play it all the time when I’m on FF8. But a game you might get into that I enjoyed the hell out of when I was younger was Magic The Gathering. It’s a really immersive game and there’s some players out there that are hard core. If you pick up a starter deck, most will play you to help you learn. Depending on your opponents deck, things can get sadistic. An infect deck will wipe your ass out of the game quick. The national championship is fun to watch. Those players can build a deck that would make non players shake. It gets crazy. Don’t get me wrong, most usually everyone’s really friendly. Granted there’s always an asshole or two. But that’s the chance you take in everything. Edited September 20, 2019 by The Blackangel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingpotato Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I only enjoy playing with Yugioh, and lately I've been trying to get into Gwent in Witcher 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I think I remember recently someone made those clash of clans and the league of legends type card games. I think most of the Korean games on android are like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played Gwent a few times but not my style at all. Yugioh games in my opinion, are still the best in this category. I'm just looking to see if anything else can top it. 4 hours ago, skyfire said: I think I remember recently someone made those clash of clans and the league of legends type card games.

Alyxx Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Never something I have gotten into. I've played a bit of Magic and Pokémon in my day but never enough that I really got sucked into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blackangel Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Anything you pick up, if you're wanting to learn by playing, just make sure to learn from someone who doesn't base their self worth on winning. First off they will be a shit teacher. Second If you do beat them, even in a learning state, they will lose it. You need to find someone who knows the game, and is willing to work with you at your speed to get you to a point that you know what you're doing when you do start playing. I would hold off on tournaments for a while in any card games, but that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I much prefer to learn on my own so that i can develop my own unique style of play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayson Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I love video poker! However, I haven't played in years. Anyway, I got hooked on that - cause I lived on this Pacific Island full of poker houses.

However, though, comically - who has the cash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
