Top Trumps
Top Trumps is a simple game to play. You deal out all the cards, then each player in turn gets to look at their top card and pick one stat that they hope will be higher on their card than on everyone else's top card. The person with the highest value takes all the cards.

Card Bios
In addition to the stats, these cards have character information. Unfortunately, the information on these cards isn't correct. Aquaman's name is listed as "Orin Marius"... which isn't a name he ever had. True, his brother's last name in the Modern Age is Marius, but it was never Aquaman's name. Also, Aquaman has had at least three sons, so the "has lost his only son" bit is wrong. Aquagirl is clearly, in the image, Tula. But the text is about Lorena. Black Manta's bio seems to be a misinterpretation of one retelling of his origin. Ocean Master's bio is the only one that could be called correct.
If you ignore the bios, the game isn't bad. I question some of the weighting on the stats, but I would hope they were keeping game balance in mind when they set them.
