List of collectible card games

This is a list of known collectible card games. Unless otherwise noted, all dates listed are the North American release date.

This contains games backed by physical cards; computer game equivalents are generally called digital collectible card games and are catalogued at List of digital collectible card games.

Collectible common-deck card games
These card games are very similar to regular CCGs; however, they do not meet the strict definition, because all players use a shared deck, also known as a common deck, similar to Uno. There is little to no interest in collecting the cards.

 * Dino Hunt (Steve Jackson Games) (1996)
 * Dragon Storm Game (Black Dragon Press) (1995)
 * Nuclear War (Flying Buffalo) (1965)

Non-collectible customizable card games
Sometimes referred to as Living Card Games, these games are very similar to CCGs but lack randomness to the purchase and distribution of the cards. Most are sold as complete sets and are therefore not collectible. Some of these games were meant to be traditional CCGs with booster packs, but the booster packs were never released.
