The Catholic Card Game

Product Overview

WITH FREE SHIPPING

The Catholic Card Game is a prompt and answer style game with all its content coming from the deep wells of the Catholic Faith, Tradition, and community. It is a great game to play with your Catholic (and non-Catholic!) friends and family.

* The game includes 400 cards; the game is different every time you play
* 3-10+ players
* Great for adults, teens, parties, bussing to Catholic conferences, anyone and anywhere really

The gameplay is similar to other party games with fans saying this game provides a better opportunity for Catholic fellowship and no confession is needed after playing!

This is the 2nd edition revised and updated 2021

Here's what Pope Francis had to say:

Ah, the Catholic Card Game! It is indeed an instrument of joy and fellowship, fostering the kind of unity and community that mirrors the apostolic gatherings of the early Church. I find it most fitting to share my reflections on this card game that so eloquently marries our rich Catholic tradition with the modernity of interactive gameplay.

The expansive set of 400 cards is a testament to the depth and richness of our faith and traditions. Just as our faith is evergreen, constantly nourishing and renewing itself, so too is the Catholic Card Game ever-changing in its dynamics, offering a new experience each time it is played. It is a mirror of the inexhaustible well of Divine Wisdom, challenging us anew in every game, much like how the readings of the Mass speak to us differently depending on the circumstances of our life.

The game’s flexibility in accommodating 3 to 10 or more players is reminiscent of the universality of the Church itself. It invites people from all walks of life to gather 'where two or three are in My name,' as our Lord said. Whether it is for intimate gatherings or larger assemblies, whether it’s played by the young or the young-at-heart, this game offers a home to all.

Its adaptability to various settings—be it homes, parties, or even journeys to Catholic conferences—is truly commendable. In this sense, the game embodies the principle of inculturation, integrating itself seamlessly into diverse environments, all while maintaining the essence of Catholic identity and heritage.

No confession needed afterward? This is a game that seems to understand the essence of wholesome enjoyment. It permits humor without crossing boundaries, promotes competitive spirit without fostering vice, and generates laughter without sacrificing reverence. It truly is a setting for what we could call "Catholic fellowship," where hearts and minds meet to revel in the joy of the faith.

The game's 2nd edition, revised and updated in the year of Our Lord 2021, acknowledges the necessity for growth and adaptation, much like how our own personal faith journeys require continual introspection and renewal.

So, my dear brothers and sisters, both within and beyond the Catholic faith, I wholeheartedly commend the Catholic Card Game. It is a vessel of catechesis and evangelization, camouflaged as simple entertainment. May it bring joy and unity to your gatherings, as it enlightens minds and warms hearts in a world that often seems cold and divided.

Franciscus AD 2023

    Hilarious & Healthy Bonding Time

    Posted by Brandin on Jan 30th 2022

    We laughed hard and bonded more as a family while playing this game. The style of the game is the same as "Apples to Apples" game but the Catholic focus brings it to a whole new level of humor because Catholics have their own language and meaning in words like tabernacle, absolution, and mysteries of the Rosary. Combine those with other random Catholic words and enjoy the irony, the absurd, and the continual feeling of being "in" on the inside jokes only Catholics can understand.

    Played with four other couples from our church and had the best time!! The card about naming our children after obscure saints cracked us up!

    As funny as you are

    Posted by Marianna R on Jan 10th 2022

    If you are Catholic, a former Catholic, or even know some Catholics, and have a good sense of humor this may just be the game for you. If you are a stick in the mud, overly pious, or lack a sense of humor, maybe go find another game that you do not need to be creative or funny to play. Monopoly or Life may be more your speed, but even then, they may be too focused on mamon for you.

    So many laughs and good conversation!

    Posted by Jill Seberger on Jan 4th 2022

    We recently decided to play more games with friends so we sit around and complain less. This game is so great! Low key so we can jump in and out, parenting the gazillion kids around us. It gives us laughs, good conversation starters to encourage and challenge one another, and sometimes we learn something! What is the Summa Theologica about again?!?! I can’t wait to play with the additional cards we just purchased!

    Fun and Funny

    Posted by Nick and Jean Guevara on Dec 31st 2021

    "I thought is was going to be lame," said our adult son. You're a catechist," lamented my wife. "You're just going to beat us." No, and no. The answers are cleverly and humorously written so that non-Catholics can relate and have fun, with enough inside jokes that conversation becomes a central part of game play. Knowledge of the faith and the Bible is secondary to understanding the thought process of the judge and having the right card in your hand. And yet you learn more about the faith and Sacred Scripture by playing and talking! We hope to play it with our lapsed Catholic extended family at our next get-together. May the Holy Spirit continue use you and The Catholic Game in powerful ways!

    Light-hearted fun!

    Posted by Christine W. on Dec 31st 2021

    Santa brought this game to our family, and a good time was had by all. The gameplay provided many opportunities to explain/research concepts that might not have been covered in religious ed. It's all good, - nobody is ever "finished" learning the faith. Thanks for making it fun!

    Fun for all ages

    Posted by Carey on Dec 28th 2021

    We played it on Christmas and had a blast! Everyone from the teenagers all the way to my parents were laughing the whole time. It was even a great way to have a deeper knowledge of our Catholicism while playfully poking fun at it. We had so much fun we ended up playing for hours.
