Really a lot of Fun! Sep 27, 2003
By a DMented lil Thori
"..mostly Harmless"
This is the first thing you need to buy if you're interested in the Neopet Trading cards/game and contains everything you need to get started towards a new addiction. You'll have to buy booster packs to feed your current deck (as per tradition) and Neopets has promised to publish new stacks as the years go by.While the game stragety is less complex than some of the current items of the same category, Neopets makes up for it with the added interaction on it's website. Each card has a little text blurb about the card's usage, history of the item/character/thingie and other little references to the storyline of the website and players can either play with the cards or give each other a detailed history of his/her own pet or experiences in Neopia. Each booster pack also contains a "special code" where a virtual item (neopoints, an expensive item or a booby prize) can be collected for their account. It's a very complex world and I think parents would also have fun picking up the cards and asking about a favorite pet or neopian item. It's easier to be hunched together over the playing mat than crowded at the computer screen ;)

NEWS FLASH: Neopets is Stuck in Cards! Nov 04, 2003 I have had many hours of fun playing with myself with these cards, despite I being an adult, I have no other people to play with. This is fun, and is hard to bend (or break) the cards unless you try to. I belive parents and children alike should buy this toy. There are different rarities of card, such as the Common cards, the Rare cards, the Uncommon cards, and the Holographic Rare cards. It has characters from the online site 'Neopets', such as Lord Darigan, and made up ones who are not in the site, such as Siyanna of Taldor. Overall, I'd give this toy a 4.5. And the artwork is pretty.

Not just another dumb game Apr 30, 2004 Many people have been complaining that the majority of the new, popular card games are all for kids. They have the idea that YuGiOh is a stupid game for losers. They also might think that NEOPETS is not good, only because of the title. Well, for the record, this is one of the best games that Wizards has published since MLB Showdown and Magic the Gathering. Neopets is a game where you get to take your neopets everywhere, at any time and still play with them when you are not online. Its a fun, immersive game that has great, colorful graphics that are cheery for both kids and adults. The game even has a certain educational value just like the other card games out in the market. When kids play card games they get to practice their math skills and their reading skills. It will help basic reading and math skills improve tremendously. This almost guarantees that they will be very smart when they reach their High SchoolYears. For older people, it helps them stop and think, and learn how to use logic to strategize. I assure you people that you will love this game if you just give it a chance. You will not regret buying this game. Don't judge until you buy and play. If it is given a chance, it will become the next big hit in card gaming. Buy it, Enjoy it, and have fun. I hope this review made you meditate. Never criticize until you try. BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you already love playing card games then dont even bother reading the review. Go out there and buy it. Gamers like you should be doing what you are meant to do. PLAY (...)

Really Fun TCG for Everybody! Dec 31, 2003 When I first heard about the coming of the Neopets TCG, I instantly thought 'where can I buy it?'... I opened the packs later that day and didn't really understand what to do. But after searching on our computer for a bit, I knew how to play and craved having a Starter Set. So a couple days after the holiday, I bought my first Neopets Starter Pack. My dad and I attempted at playing and were successful in the fun department! The game is very easy to follow and has lots of choices for you to make. It's fun to create your very own deck and think about which cards will help you. It's also a blast to open booster packs and collect your favorite pets. There's never a dull moment when you play the Neopets TCG! *TIPS* Load up on Items and Equipment that you can use and bank in play. Make sure your Neopets are beneficial for you. Don't put in ones that won't help you just to fit the 10 Neopets minimum. Stragetize. No stragety, no win ~Lexie Burnett
