It also means you can feel comfortable taking them places with you or throwing them in your pocket for the park. How many trading cards in your house have been ripped accidentally (or on purpose!)? These cards will hold up much better, which means less worrying from the parentsвЂ™ end. Another positive of the cards is their sturdiness, as they are made out of plastic rather than paper. There are many positives about the cards themselvesвЂ“I mean, they have 3D and animation effects, which floored me when I saw them the first time. There is also an Advanced Rules Set, so that Redakai can grow with your children. I enjoyed the ability to play a quick game when we only had a few minutes as well as playВ longer games when we had more time.

When you play a Monster Card on your Character Card, it may boost some stats or heal you! Depending on the amount of cards you decide to play with, this gameВ can be either very fast game or more drawn out. Here is the great partвЂ“this is all visual as the cards have transparent overlays, so it is possible to see when you lose all of your energy when the three damage bars are full. If your Attack Card type number is higher than what the Character Card is showing, you can place it on your opponentвЂ™s Character Card and hopefully damage them. You then play the Attack Cards on your opponentвЂ™s Character Card and the Monster Cards on your Character when it is your turn (that is, when you pick off your deck). The basic game is played by picking your Character Card and then making up a mix of Monster and Attack Cards to play with. I had opened the product and read the instructions on the Basic Game, and right off the bat I knew this was going to be the first trading card game that would both be fun for them and limit any sort of discrepancies in gameplay.

Redakai is already a hit in our house with our two boys (almost 6 and almost 8), as they really had a great time playing with the Redakai Start Pack and the Redakai Championship Tin sent by Spin Master. They also spoke about how there is going to be a show to go along with the product coming to the Cartoon Network. I was first introduced to Redakai at the 2011 Toy Fair, when we were shown an uncut sheet of the cards with what Spin Master called Blast3D technology along with some other product. That being said, these cards are absolutely stunning. Finally a trading card game that my boys actually want to play rather than just collect the cards to look at.
