Family Card Games is a passable collection of games that are playable by both young and old. Although it lacks any polish to set it apart from merely playing with a deck of cards, the computer opponent makes the game a good learning tool for children as well as those new to these games, although there is no tutorial included. The option to play online, at least with friend codes, can provide a brief diversion in-between playing more substantial games online.
If Aksys Games had taken the initiative to swap in a more culturally appropriate headlining act, or if more than just a trio of games had made the cut for this five dollar download, then it might have been worth a look. As it is, the Family franchise is going out on a bit of a down note -- just go grab a standard poker deck for 99 cents instead
