The Most Popular TCG Games Of All Time

By Freida McCall


Playing trading card or TCG games has been a very popular hobby by a lot of people for many years already because of all of the fun that it can provide. Of course because of its immense popularity, there are many contests and tournaments that have been held worldwide so that many players from around the globe can gather and test their skills. So just to give an idea on which of these games have made it, here are some of the most popular of all time.

A lot of people will probably know about the ever popular Pokemon trading card game that has been a huge fad ever since the series came out. Even until today, the Pokemon franchise is still maintaining its dominance by creating more comics, more television shows, and of course more trading cards. The reason why this game can appeal to so many people is that it is a game that people of all ages can play.

Next to that would actually be the Yu Gi Oh game or simply Duel Monsters. These cards first came out when the Yu Gi Oh comics and series came out into the world market. As the shows depict the characters playing a card game, many fans also wanted to emulate what the characters in the show were doing.

Duel Masters is another card game that is actually very similar to Duel Monsters aside from the name. However, this one will require a little bit more thinking and strategy making because of the nature of the game. The moves made by the characters in the card are not as direct as that of Duel Monsters which means that a more complex thinking process is required.

Magic the Gathering is yet another very popular game that made it in the spotlight. Many people like this card game because the design of all of these cards are nice and colorful. With regard to the game play, it takes a little bit more brain and creativity when thinking of good moves to make.

The Lord of the Rings card game is known to be the hardest one to play and as well as the most complicated because of its basic nature. The moves of all the characters are quite hard to grasp and understand because heavy strategy making is required. That is why this card game is more for the older people like those that are in the age range of eighteen for forty.

Now a card game that is more suited for a younger crowd would be none other than the Harry Potter trading card game. This one is more targeted to those who like to collect cards instead of use them for competitions. This is actually because the design of the card is very pretty and it would therefore really appeal to people who do not play that much.

So for those who are familiar with TCG games, these are probably already familiar names. These franchises were by far the most popular in the past years and stood the test of time. Until today many people still play these games because they are very entertaining and is something that one can do during spare time.
