I hear a lot of disappointment about the size of the cards in the American version. What size are these cards? Are they business card size?

They are very small. Shorter than a business card but wider.Your only looking for colors so its not a big deal. Great game!

I believe they are a business size card. I didn't have a problem with the size of the card. No sure why it should be a problem!

They are about the size of a business card - maybe even a tad smaller. It is sometimes hard to hold them in your hand when you have a lot of them.

Slightly smaller than a business card. Because they are small and there are so many cards, they are hard to shuffle. That is the only negative for the American version

That sounds about right. They are a little small but they don't seem to bother me that much. I suppose that full size cards might be better for shuffling and holding, but it's a large board and it takes quite a bit of room for the entire set-up, so anything that is smaller probably helps for that. It doesn't seem to be that big of deal in my opinion.

No the cards are small, however we adults ( with large hands) have had little trouble playing the game! Since there are a lot of cards, big ones might mean the need for a bigger playing surface. We play on a card table.

Yes they are about the size of a business card. Approximately 2 3/4" by 1 1/4". No one in my family complains about the sizes though. My family ranges from 5 to 65 years old!What I do, instead of shuffling, I make about 5 piles of the cards, that way when someone buys a route, the same colors are not all together. I know if my husband answered this, he would tell you the mathematical way to do it, I just wing it!

They are about business card sized, made of nice stock. I just commented to my husband the other night that I was glad they were not bigger cards. Sometimes you are holding a lot of them, and larger cards would just take up more room in your hand!

The cards that come with the original game are very small, only 2 5/8" x 1 3/4". We tolerated them until we bought the 1910 expansion set, which is the same as standard playing cards. I was more disappointed in four of the rules, rather than the cards. The game is OK if you like RISK.

These cards are 3 1/2 by 2 1/4 inches (Bridge-size). The numbers/letters are 1 inch high. Hope this helps.

regular size of playing cards is all I have used..Not sure if anything larger would work.

Someone already answered this question (15 days ago as of this posting). They said, "the card itself is about 9.3 x 1.8 inches in size". I have not confirmed.

I wish I could help, but I am not sure. It is the same as the larger GB cards available at most stores (target).

Yes the cards are 5 x 7 inches. I use them all the time to make cards with my artwork on them. No reproductions. All original.

They vary. Most of them are standard card size - about 5" x 7", but some are longer and skinnier, like a business envelope size.

If you use word there are several on their website or just do a google search for business card template and they will pop up. It is a standed size 2 cards across by 5 down.

The cards are the same size as a normal deck. This deck had 2 jokers. My mother is very happy with these cards.

The box dimensions are listed as 14 x 3 x 8.1 inches. Pretty large cards can fit. The inner dimensions are just bit smaller than what's listed. I think probably the largest cards could be around 8x6, in my guesstimation. I hope that helps.

10 - 15 depending on the thickness of your business cards. So, not many, but well worth the purchase. It is absolutely beautiful!

They are like jumbo sized standard playing cards. They are paper with the shiny waxy coating. Just like Bicycle playing cards. Hope this helps.

It's been over a year since I got married and have used them, but they are the size of any average size place cards. I loved them so much and would use them all over again!

Jack, I found the business card to be less pounds in weight. It is probably more like 2 pounds. I enjoy it. It secures card well and closes with a magnetic closer under the leather.

Standard size... And also the sin card can be slide in by taking the back cover ... So is a really simple sin card use

It's the size of a normal card, but you can only play this card in tournaments using the "Expanded" or "Unlimited" format. Hope this helps.

Hi Saira. There are 12 pages of 20 cards. You can definitely put 240 cards in there but is gets full quickly. I need to purchase new ones already. Also good to know is that the only business card format fitting is the USA one (more narrow than the European one). I cut around the edges to make it fit. I am happy with mine though. Practical and looks good.
