Hi bjc, the other games we know of -- more accurately, "have heard tell of" -- are pretty obscure and hard to find.
While we've seen images of most of 'em, we haven't been hands-on with any of 'em, so what we're relating here is
what's been reported in the past by members of our own Baseball Games forum. We can't vouch for how
much of a role
standard cards have in any of these, or how effectively they're employed in any of them, but:
Card Baseball -- 1991, MacQue
Pennant Quest -- 1992, maker uncertain but might be "Speerit"
Baseball Card Baseball -- circa 1995, maker uncertain but starts with "S"
The Original Baseball Card Game -- 1990s, SLJ
All-Star Baseball Card Game -- circa 1996, possibly by KSport; then circa 1996-2008, possibly by ABC Game Co
(it's possible these are actually two completely different games produced with the same title by the two separate publishers,
neither of which is to be confused with
Baseball Card All-Star Game by CapToys)
Front Row Baseball -- 2001, Miltema
Two other candidates, which we can't even say for sure utilize standard baseball cards at all:
The Original Baseball Playing Card Game -- circa 1990s, maker unknown
"Baseball Card Baseball" Game -- circa 2000s, maker unknown
Baseball Card All-Star Game, Pennant Quest, The Original Baseball Card Game, and
Front Row Baseball
all got pretty good reviews from the couple of guys who'd ever tried playing them. All but
Baseball Card All-Star Game
and maybe
Card Baseball are really tough to find.
You're more than welcome to post at our little forum, quiet though it is, and ask for more info, and we'd also recommend
