What are Collectible Card Games (CCGs)?

Collectible Card Games are strategic games which use cards. There are many different types, each with their own rules and with every card that comes into play the possible outcome of the game shifts depending on how it is used. Each card tells you what effect it has. Examples of these games are: Pokemon, L5R, Yu Gi Oh and Magic: The Gathering all of which have been played at Gaelcon and at the Games Nights in Cassidy's.
