Audition whimsical cartoon characters for the next great animated film. Hire some talented animal actors and race for Fame! Will your cast of toons light up the silver screen, or get along like cats and dogs?

FlipToons is a fast-playing, small box deck-building game. Easy to learn and quick to play, this card game packs a nostalgic punch with equal parts luck and strategy.

Gameplay Overview
FlipToons is a quick, charming deck-builder from Thunderworks Games — developed by Cartographers' Keith Matejka — where players compete as rival casting directors auditioning animal cartoon characters for the silver screen. Each round, you shuffle your entire deck and flip cards to form a 3x2 tableau of toon actors, resolving their special talents based on where they land in the grid. The Fame they generate is your currency: spend it between rounds to hire new toons from an ever-changing market, dismiss underperformers from your roster, and build toward the killer combo that earns you 30+ Fame in a single Flip and triggers the endgame. The "shuffle and flip" structure gives every round an exciting slot-machine energy, while the strategic deck-building layer rewards players who curate their cast carefully over time. With 30 unique toon characters drawn in a gorgeous vintage rubber-hose animation style and games wrapping up in 20 minutes, it's an ideal filler that's surprisingly deep for its price and footprint. Available on Board Game Arena.
