Ratings and reviews

The only game out there like this that I know of. The art is cute, topics are seasonally relevant, and it's free to play. I've played since 2008. But it's always had one fatal flaw: the cards don't get released fast enough. There's a huge gap between easy and hard. Eventually there's nothing to do but wait for one card at a time to be released. I leave for a while but forget to come back and so I miss collections. So not great at holding onto players consistently. Good if you're XL though.

I have been playing this game for 13 years & really love it. It is a card collecting game that can be challenging & really fun! The developers recently updated the game. They are very responsive, provide great customer service & do what they can to help facilitate better game play. You can enjoy the game by yourself or you can meet others & play collectively. Completing sets is a rewarding experience. I definitely recommend this game.

(Shortened review from a year ago) Yes, I was able to complete a couple of the latest active sets. But if a collection is gated behind a single card (A PackRatter's Quest needed 30 copies of a card from Popular Patterns), well that card's going to be scarce, isn't it? It was impossible for me to find more than 2 copies of the card required, and so the collection was impossible to complete.
