Magic Card Game

The term magic card game usually refers to the game Magic: The Gathering or MTG. This is a card game created by the wizards of the coast that has been very popular for many years. The game combines aspects of fantasy with the trading card format of a Pokémon style card game. This is ironic, as MTG actually predated Pokémon by several years.

In MTG a player buys collectible card sets to try and build a useful array of cards, or a deck. The player then uses the deck in a game with one or more other players. The types of cards associated with MTG borrow heavily from fantasy lore, such as dungeons and dragons. The game plays out as a strategy game, with cards countering other cards, and the goal of the game being a complete victory over the opponent’s set of cards.

While other magic card games may exist, the overwhelming majority of online information on the subject is related to this card game. If you are trying to learn how to do tricks with cards, or learn card games then searching for terms like “card tricks”, or “playing card games” will yield far more useful results than searching for magic card games.
