Cards, Universe & Everything – Card Game Review
Cards, Universe & Everything is a Card/Education/Strategy game from VirtTrade Ltd, first launched in 4th December 2019.
It’s rated 4+ and currently has 9,886+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Cards, Universe & Everything Stand Out
Battle anything from across the universe! Let King Arthur wield Excalibur against Thor and mighty Mjolnir; set a T-Rex loose on an African Elephant; or pair up Einstein with a Zombie to take on a Pug, a Hamburger, and the Charter of the United Nations. Yes, this game will take you places you never intended to go.
Of course like all good TCG and CCG games the concept is simple to understand, but it's the layers of preparation, strategy and devious tactics against your opponent that make all the difference.
Cards, the Universe and Everything, CUE Cards for short, is designed for the ever-curious with a taste for the absurd. Each glorious card is brimming with fascinating nuggets of knowledge, facts and trivia. For example did you know Manatees use flatulence to stay buoyant or that African Pygmy Hedgehogs like to cover themselves in spit when they smell something new? (If you did then give yourself a gold star, but with over 4000 cards already, the chances are you won’t know everything… yet.)
When we say everything in the universe we mean it, sure we might be a few trillion trillion things off completely fulfilling our promise, but we’re getting there. There’s an ever-growing collection of cards covering anything and everything; Space Travel, Dinosaurs, Nebulae, Greek, Roman and Norse mythology, Samurai, the Honey Badger, the Sun, Leonardo Da Vinci, Elephants, Celestial Objects, Kings and Queens, Bugs, Sharks, and so much more across Science, Technology, Arts & Culture, Natural History, Paleontology and History.
Gather together a collection of your favourite things, build an all conquering deck and then duel it out against other players from around the world in thrilling arenas. Combine cards to creative crazy combos like Quantum Leap and Ace of Spies, Gently beating your opponent into submission to gain famous victories and shoot up the leaderboard and leagues.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Love it! Card collecting is one of our favorite hobbies, and with CUE we can play and collect anytime on any device. Easy, fast paced gameplay, and great card art. 10/10.
Intelligent, user friendly, no overt money grubbing just polite offers, and a well thought out card game structure. Changes from update tend to be a little surprising but always more focused on a good playing experience. No real complaints at all. Top marks.
Please it sounded so much better.
This is seriously the best game in the App Store.
This game is really really boring. Dont waste your time.
Decided to hope on again and we love it.
We didnt expect much, but it has blown our mind the depth and variety this game has. Also as a geek for almost anything we love the trivia bits they have on each card. It also shows that the creators have a lot of love for the game they developed.
When we first got it, we wasnt expecting much, but now im addicted!! This game is such a fun strategic game and we recommend 100%.
This game is hands down the most consistently entertaining game we have ever played, period. Endless deck building options, extremely smooth gameplay and non stop updates. A card collectors dream! Warning: You will NOT be able to put your phone down.
This game is a lot of fun once you get into it. We love the learning experience of reading the Thousands of cards and creating powerful decks to defeat our opponents in battle.
This game is awesome. The developers really care and are open to suggestions. It is really easy for beginners to get started! It has competition, collecting, trading, and education. This is our favorite noble game ever.
This game has cards that are all about satan and the devil.
To be honest this is probably one of the best card games since clash royal (in our opinion).
This game is fun and we have been playing for months and the game is wonderful the cards keep getting updates keeping the game fresh and new.
Entertaining & educational card game but the game can favor those who spend money on it. If you try to watch ads for the free rewards, the ad will work but then when its time for your reward the game will magically have an error and waste your time for nothing.
As a longtime ccg veteran, our experience with this game is mixed. On the one hand, the pack opening experience is fine, and we feel like Im getting a fun experience without having to sink large chunks of money at a time into the game to get nothing in return (Im looking at you Marvel Snap!). On the other hand, the deck building and crafting aspect of the game have made us stop playing for the most part. 1. With the sheer number of cards present in the game, as a newish player you should be able to partially craft a deck, save it as an invalid deck, and then complete it later at your convenience (no we dont want to use autocomplete). 2. Crafting should absolutely guarantee a card the player does not already own. Ive attempted to craft several rares and an epic. Every single card created was one we already had. This makes crafting feel totally pointless and puts a damper on pack opening knowing all the copies we open can only be used to (very likely) make yet another random duplicate card (Hearthstone crafting is much better by comparison). 3. After buying several smaller deals and opening quite a few packs, we are still a long way away from being able to make even a single fusion card. The combat portion of the game hasnt been a very good experience either. The casual match up system gives us opponents who are super-easy to defeat, and the league play is the extreme opposite, where we get annihilated by highly tuned decks with specific card synergies right off the bat. Nothing in between. We might continue on a bit to open a pack here and there and read the trivia on the back of the cards, but Im afraid we wont be financially supporting the game anymore due to our criticisms above of the deck building and match-making aspects of the game.
We really used to love this game and play it but then we saw some cards have nudity and it ruined the game for us because on the AppStore it doesnt say it had nudity but it does and its ruined this game for us so unless you like add a setting or something to disable nudity Im deleting this app.
Game is really good but it need more ways to earn cards without having to spend to much money. Probably not a casual players game.
Not sure if its an Apple thing, but we are unable to enter CUE codes within the app to redeem cards (the option is not even given). We tried contacting the developer through their site, but that avenue is nonexistent.
Its a creative strategy game and its got loads of great mechanics! We also like reading the back of the cards and learning things. We feel smarter.
Very fun, easy to understand, but has layers of complexity. New cards frequently and stuff to do every day to keep you coming back.
C(t)U(a)E is a wonderful turn based card game where players collect in game currency to open packs containing a WIDE variety of well.. Everything!! With the cards having effects to boost each other correlating with events in history, to just them having similar names, it shows the people behind this did their research and put together a masterpiece. The one thing we will say is the in game currency can sometimes seem hard to obtain but during most holidays they tend to give back to the community. Overall Id say this game has unlimited potential as the universe is and forever will be expanding, with that more things to be discovered will always create more content for future updates. Hopefully this game can be something that we can share with our future kids.
Cards, the Universe, and Everything is an online Trading/Playing card game that introduces a fun and even educational twist on the mobile genre. The depth at which research goes into making this game as well as its cards allows for people to play, collect, or trade however they want without needing to worry about not leveling up or gaining currency. Speaking of currency, while Ive been playing the game for over a few months, we have not had to spend one dollar on gaining the cards that Ive found throughout our journey. Id also like to point out the ease at which new players can pick up the way games work with CUEs excellent tutorials and fun graphics that allow the game to be more immersive and simplified for everyone to play. Even if someone wanted to play competitively, that option is provided and well organized. We give this game a rating of 5 stars because it is a well designed game that can be fun for all sorts of people that constantly updates with new cards and new challenges. Thank you for making such a wonderful game.
CUE in our eyes, is a perfect game. It has that addictive material that makes you always want to plate one more game. Its a fun concept too and the fact that almost every card has a ability is really fun. The creators also deserve a huge round of applause for making the art for the game, all the cards, and unique names for all the abilities. Overall CUE is one of the best games Ive ever played.
94V-VS8-Y2E Referral code This card game is fun and f2p.
Its a good game but it gets a little boring after a little while.
We like it but out of 1,000,000 coins we dont get any mythics and thats a bummer.
Scratches that itch you if you like strategic card games that is.It does have a little bit of a pay to win element antrading can be annoying but with a little patience and if you enjoy the game. Its worth grinding through.Theres no better satisfaction than building a powerful deck that works well together and climbing up the ranks bit by bit.
We saw an ad for cue and was like- what??? Over 2,000 cards? Battles? Trading? Packs? Then we knew right then this was the haven for us. We love that you can get new cards hourly, trade with a big community, make friends, and literally play as a ham sandwich!! 5/5 Great Game you guys did a fantastic job Ive got the game for 2 days and we are in love with this. It felt great to branch out from Pokmon cards and not spend too much money on this game. We usually dont like phone apps but this one is awesome. If youre thinking about downloading this game DO IT this will change your LIFE.
Very fun Ive dedicated many hours this game never gets boring.
The game was nothing like what was advertised on Instagram. We dont appreciate misleading ads and if it was possible to give it zero stars we would.
Is the best game known to mankind.
What in interesting game, has something for everyone. Personally love the Halloween, feudal Japan, Greek mythology decks. Having a blast.
Very fun game and easy to play especially when you have a good deck.
Once you learn what the cards do pick a genre and a theme and you can reliably win. This game is pretty cool. It only takes a week or so to be able to make a decent deck. Being able to trade is amazing. All other card games should take a CUE from this one. The players want to be able to trade! It makes the game better.
This game is a little bit more fun than we thought it would be. Although there is a store for micro transactions, all the cards are still at random it even pairs with opponents, and is never too difficult and very fun.
We love it so much. Its fun to just sit down and try to play. We would recommend this game highly.
Ive noticed that we come across a player that seems to have extra points from nowhere, or Im getting deductions from nowhere. Wondering how cheating works for this game.
This game is super fun and is a great play on table top card games you love like MtG, Hearthstone, etc. The only issue is that there are certain cards that are easier to obtain and they are OP. You will find yourself losing almost always to the same style of deck. Its most definitely worth the try and is not always a pay to win. A lot of free stuff to make you competitive! Edit: as of Oct 2023; dont bother playing the league bonuses and trying to match the arena. Just get as many Nebula space cards as you can until they fix/ nerf them. So unbalanced and defeat the purpose of getting any other cards. Ive lost maybe 10 games in total out of the 100 Ive played, 8x to the nebula combo that we cant seem to unlock in packs ourselves.
We love this game, the card collecting and deck building is great, and the games itself is simple enough to play it on the go, but complex enough to be engaging. Our one complaint is the use of artificial intelligence generated images. We understand that for a game constantly adding new carts, challenges, etc. You need a lot of cheep, quick images, but we are of the belief that ai is unethical. This may be our opinion, but we will not financially support this game for that. Ill still play, and Id still recommend it, but we wont buy anything.
We've thoroughly enjoyed this game but the most recent update has caused the game to not load at all. It loads a tiny bit and then stops, no matter how much time we wait the loading bar doesn't progress. We just wanna play the game but we can't.
This is honestly a great game for the most part. We tried to unlock trading on our new account, we had an old one. When we made our new one, it accidentally put the email with a .con instead of .com, and we wanted to trade. So we verified, and it sent it to not our email. So we tried changing the email it was linked to. It said Sorry Error has occurred or Email in use on another account. So we go to our old account, delete the old account and go back to our new one. We changed the email and it worked. We went to trading and it took a while to load, so we checked our mail. It had the link to verify, we used it and it said the link was old and we should ask for a new one. When we went back to trading and asked for a new one, we never got one. So we logged out the game and tried to log back in, and it said our email was not in use on any account. So now Im locked out of both our accounts. At this point, Ive given up.
This is one of our favorite games. This game is very easy to understand, includes lots of fun features, and has a great staff team. The game is remarkably fun, because its a simple idea. You get cards, play PvP against other players, trade, all that good stuff. Its a marvelous game.
This is definitely one of the better deck building games. We really like the card mechanics and the set building in this game. There are tons of cards and it really feels like you got lucky when you get higher rarity cards. However the game seems to get stale because theres nothing else but 1v1 or ranked 1v1. Neither feel very rewarding. You don't really get anything for winning that makes you want to keep playing. They should implement a point system for your player and clans to help build an engaging community.
We really enjoy playing this game. Its a great time waster and its easy to master. The cards are fun, spontaneously random and funny to mix and match. Its interesting to see how different cards play off of each other. And we really like that they include the most obscure things.
We love this game we dont know what we would do without it but we cant trade when we sent in our email then we had to confirm it and we spammed that button because it wouldnt load and when it finally loaded then we still couldnt trade and the game really needs to fix that now we get cards easily it is really easy we have some limited cards we have legendaries we love this game so much that we were playing it before we got to bed and the next morning right when we woke up we played it again and we are already good in just a couple of days so download this app and have lots of fun it is not copying anything and it is also educational with those history cards you might have not known the person Penelope without this game.
This is a good game you should play it.
Very creative idea, we really like the history cards. Only problem is the micro transactions :(.
Idk why, but we LOVE this game. It's fun and factual mixed into one. The only thing we'd want this game to have more of is people playing it! Download this game.
