Description

The game would be good if they were just random symbols on the cubes, but let’s be honest your children are going to love it a lot more if you theme it with their favourite characters. The upright board hinders cheating and it is all of a good quality tough enough to withstand the younger players.

Whoever won the cards then chooses any attribute to read from their next card, and again whoever has the best value of this attribute on their top card wins the cards and has the next turn. This continues for as many turns as necessary, and players drop out of the game as they run out of cards. Whoever eventually manages to collect all the cards wins the game. Ties In terms of storage, it folds away into a self-contained box which is easily transportable. If I was to gripe, the cards are a little flimsy and I discovered the storage slot for them at the top of the board a little late and so they got a little bumped sliding around in the case. I’ve played this a lot with my boys and they show signs of wear but not to an unplayable standard. It really is a very minor gripe! Final Thoughts on Top Trumps MatchWhat I now own is the illegitimate lovechild of Connect 4 and Tic Tac Toe with no inherited genes from Top Trumps! If you are hoping for a game like the card game this is not it. Other than the logo featured on the box this game has no connection to that nostalgic card game whatsoever, but it is still worthy of attention. Top Trumps Match PLAY ANYWHERE AT ANY TIME: the easy-to-carry plastic case makes for a perfect travel or holiday game Top Trumps Match is aimed at children and as such it ties in with many of the kid’s favourites, such as Marvel Avengers, Disney Princesses, Harry Potter, Star Wars and more. Be aware though, regardless of which version you choose they are all exactly the same game just with different branding to the cubes, cards and outer box.

It is unlikely, but theoretically possible that after a tie the player whose turn it is to choose might have no more cards. This could happen for example in a three-player game, if you win with your last card and then cause three successive ties. Clearly you then have to drop out, having no more cards, but which of the two remaining players takes the next turn? I have not seen any set of rules that covers this problem, and since I cannot see any fair way to resolve it, I suggest that if this ever arises, the remaining players should draw lots to decide who chooses next. Variations BECOME THE TOP TRUMP: prepare to outsmart your opponents, discover new and exciting Game of Thrones facts and duel your way to becoming the Top TrumpI always feel a pang of nostalgia when one of my kids want to play the card game Top Trumps. The premise is simple; players compare simple statistics to win cards. The trouble is that once you learn what score is high for each category you can soon dictate a game in a way Kim Jong-un would be proud of. Play your favourite card games with your favourite characters including Melisandre, Theon Greyjoy and Bran Stark
