8-Bit Mini Gold Playing Cards

Love these tiny cards! I keep these in my purse so my friends and I can play at restaurants or when we go out sometimes at parties. People always love seeing these cards because the 8-bit designs are cool and unique. The quality of the cards themselves is great as well. Highly recommend!

Really like the mini deck to compliment the full size deck, I just wish the box was exactly the same (said bicycle vs home run). I am guessing this is due to a different manufacturer of the mini deck, but I was hoping for an exact mini deck to use for a magic trick.

Love the graphics, and perfect size for a stocking stuffer.

I love this mini! It is close enough in design that people don't notice the slight differences from the minis to the full poker-sized deck. Makes for an awesome retro deck switch.

This deck of, “8-Bit Mini Gold Playing Cards” from Home Run Games is a good looking deck of miniature plating cards! I like having different types of playing cards to play cards with, and I do not have many decks of miniature cards so I was interested in ordering this deck of cards. The cards are each about 2.5” x 1.75”. The artwork on these playing cards is just that, it appears 8-bit. So if you had an NES, Atari Lynx/7800, Sega Master System, or whatever 8-bit system during your younger years, you’ll probably also find that these cards recreate that 8-bit look rather well.With this deck of cards, the box is made well, it’s as sturdy as a typical pack for playing cards. With this deck of playing cards the face cards all differ from each other, and so do all of the Ace cards. There are also 2 unique Joker cards. The entire deck of cards has a unique design. I find that the cards slide alright, but not as easy as a normal deck of playing cards. I am unsure if this is due to the cards being smaller, so when pressure is applied to them it covers a larger percentage of the card’s surface area as compared to a normal playing card, or if the finish on the cards is just not as nice as that on typical playing cards. I feel it’s a combination of both. I also have some other decks of playing cards from Home Run Games, including their 8-bit series, and comparing this mini deck of 8-bit playing cards to their normal size 8-bit playing cards, there is a definite difference in how the cards glide. The normal sized deck of cards is a lot easier to deal, shuffle, etc.The artwork on the back of the cards is detailed with a look similar to the overhead map in certain 8-bit action RPGs, along with other nods to 8-bit games such as a game controller and whatnot. The price for the deck of cards is pretty fair for what you get, the deck of cards does have a good looking 8-bit style. This deck of miniature 8-bit Playing cards is similar to the other, “Gold” 8-bit deck of playing cards from Home Run games, though a few of the face cards are a bit different from their, “Normal-sized” 8-bit decks of playing cards. So, it’s not exactly the same as either of their normal size 8-bit decks of playing cards.Overall, a very nice deck of miniature playing cards, though if you aren’t really seeking out miniature playing

Home Run Games 8-Bit Mini Gold Playing Cards: $8.99 at the time of reviewI’ve been a video game player since the very first time I ever saw Mario grace the screen in all his 8-bit glory. I really like gaming-themed stuff and when I saw these cards they seemed like a fun thing. I’ll admit though that I thought this was a full-sized deck of cards, as I somehow missed the word mini in the name.*What I liked*:These definitely have a retro vibe to them. The look says classic video gaming (without *actually* printing and copyrighted material).The quality of construction is about on par with a regular deck of playing cards with a plastic coating to prevent wear.*What I didn't like*:The one major downside is that they are generic. While I love the retro feel, I’d have loved to have seen actual video game characters and symbols.*The Bottom Line:*This is a neat little deck. It inspires non-specific feelings of nostalgia when I look at it. I don’t think it’s particularly practical to play with. But it would make a nice little novelty gift. I see this as about four stars out of five. I probably wouldn’t order it again though, as I don’t like tiny decks of cards.

These are nice quality playing cards, but they're tinier than you may expect and a bit pricey for what you're getting. You can get a nice deck of cards for three or four bucks, but these are smaller and cost almost $10. Ultimately, that price is the only reason I'm docking a star from the review. If you like the 8-bit aesthetic, these are very cute, and they're sturdy enough; made of the same durable paper material that most cards are made of. You can see in the attached image just how small they are. I added a AAA battery for scale. These are easy to recommend if you can find them on sale.

These are hilarious. Was not expecting them to be so small. They’re so tiny! But the cards still work as intended and I love the pixel art. It’s a very entertaining deck of playing cards
