Top Trumps has been played since the 1970s when the first packs took the playgrounds of the UK by storm. And its success is partly due to how easy and compelling it is to play: shuffle and deal all the cards face down. Each player takes their cards and holds them so that they can see the top card only. The player to the dealer's left starts by reading out a selected statistic (e.g. Weight). The other players then read out the same statistic from their own top cards. The player with the best or highest value wins and places all the top cards including their own to the bottom of their own pile. It is then that player's turn to choose a statistic from the next card. If two or more cards share the top value or data is unavailable for that statistic, then all the top cards are placed in the middle and the same player chooses from the next card. The winner of that hand takes all the cards from the middle as well. The person with all the cards at the end is the winner, easy.

Top Trumps Wonders of the World

This was a stocking filler for my son (10) - it was a hit (as is most of the trumps card sets) but a bonus was if you lay all the cards out face down the backs make up a jigsaw type map of the world. Good value game:)

Wonders of the world. Top Trumps
These Top Trumps cards; Wonders of the World were bought for my 9 year old Grandson at Christmas, as a stocking filler.

What excellent value. Not only did Jimmy enjoy playing with them, but everyone else wanted to play with him. :-)

Fascinating facts, a really fun and educational toy that all ages can enjoy.

Great for playing with the grandkids
This is a wonderful alternative to computer games ! all the family can join in and it is easy to design your own games such as guess which wonder of the world has ...hostility 90 or some such questions..
