Doppeldeutsche, Blitz

These cards far exceeded my expectation--though I shouldn't be surprised as Piatnik is well known for it's Austrian excellence. The cards are extremly well made and sturdy (you'l notice they're a bit larger than the standard American 52 deck.) If you play 66 (Sechsundsechzig) these are a must. They also work great for the Austrian counterpart, Schnapsen as well as a variety of other German card games. The box is pretty tight, which makes pack and unpacking the cards difficult. It may be wise to invest in some sort of case for them if you play a lot.
