Ever since the emergence of trading cards, many people have gone into this craze and have been participating in tournaments or contests that involve these types of things. Trading card or simply TCG games have been very popular for the past few years as so many gamers never get tired of playing. Here is a list of some of the most popular of these that have emerged over the past years.

Everyone knows about the Pokemon craze that started out somewhere around the late nineties when the first comic came out. After the television show was aired in the United States of America, the official trading card game was actually made in order to cater to both the card gamers and the fans. Pokemon became extremely popular and appealing because almost any person can play it regardless of age as long as one will be able to grasp the rules.

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 came right after Duel Monsters as a similar kind of card game but slightly different when it comes to game play. Duel Masters has more supplementary cards that give bonus points to the characters as compared to Duel Monsters. In a way, it is actually more challenging and requires a lot more strategy than both Pokemon and Yu Gi Oh card games.

Everyone is probably familiar with Magic the Gathering. Although not as popular as the first three that were mentioned, it still also has its own market. The great thing about these cards is that the moves of the characters are very creative and unique and will require some thinking on how to execute them.

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.

A very easy game to play would be the Harry Potter trading card game which is actually targeted to younger audiences. Now the game play here is quite easy as compared to the others since the target market of this game is more on the young age group like children ranging even up to teenagers. It also boasts a very beautiful card design for those who like admiring their deck.

If one is already into the world of card gaming, he will definitely be very familiar with all of these TCG games. The great thing about these franchises is that they stood the test of time and rose above the others. Even today, there are still many collectors, players, and fans coming from all of these franchises.
