Deal or No Deal Card Game
If you’re one of the 15 million people who watch Deal or No Deal on NBC, then you might like the card game version.
For $9.99, it is really a good deal - no pun intended. Children as young as 5 can join in the fun of calling out numbers and seeing what they ‘win’. The whole family can take turns scratching off numbers from the game pad and deciding whether to accept the bank offer or not. Of course, because this is a card game, the bank offers are not directly related to what amounts you have left on the baord. It is literally a hit or miss - the offer can go way up or down- it just depends on the card you draw from the pile.
It takes a few minutes to lay out all the cards each time a new player starts a round, but its worth the price. The one thing I would have suggested is including a plastic tray/holder where all the cards could be placed instead of having to spread them out on a table or floor.
I wouldn’t recommend this as an adult party night game, but it’s good fun for kids and parents. The game comes in the shape of the famous silver brief case.
The only thing missing are the models and Howie Mendell - but I’m sure we’ll have just as much fun without them.

Now this is a real deal! I had not heard this game show has out a card game. I am a big proponent of board games, card games, etc. — anything that can bring a family together for some quality time is a big deal to me. Kudos to the people who brought this game to the homes of Americans all across this nation.

I wonder how similar this is to the “Deal or No Deal” board game released in Australia. I believe we were one of the first countries to introduce the TV show, and it amazes me how it’s just taken off all around the world! Funny how popular opening suitcases can be!
