Most pull-tab pickle card sets are sold ready-to-play and commonly include printed instructions, perforated pull tabs, and a mix of winning and losing cards (often with one or a few winners in a set). They’re printed on sturdy cardstock and usually have play/winner instructions on the back.
Most pull-tab pickle card sets include 12 cards.
Pull-tab pickle cards commonly measure about 4.75 inches wide × 5.5 inches tall (some designs list 3.25 inches × 5.5 inches). Pickle-themed greeting cards in these listings show sizes such as 5.5 in. × 4.25 in. and 4.625 in. × 6.75 in.
Many pull-tab game cards are labeled for ages 12 and up; some adult-themed designs specify 21 and up.
These cards appear for a variety of occasions and themes, including birthdays, bridal/bachelorette parties, Friendsgiving/Thanksgiving, New Year’s Eve celebrations, and Father’s Day.
Typical play is to give each player a pull-tab card, have them pull the perforated tabs along the lines, and check for three matching icons in a row to determine a winner. Some designs instead hide prompts under the tabs (for example, truth/dare/share) rather than icons.
Each game card typically has three perforated tabs that are pulled open along perforation lines. The tabs either reveal icons used to form three-in-a-row wins or reveal prompts (such as truth, dare, or share), depending on the design.
