Top Trumps: Phineas and Ferb is a card game based on Phineas and Ferb, released in 2010 exclusively at the Disney Store. Inspired by the classic War decks, it has players compete on outdoing the numerical data of one another in successive rounds. Two slightly distinct versions have been produced; the main one from the English regions and the Super Trunfo equivalent in Brazil.
Gameplay[]
Cards are evenly distributed for the two to four players in the match, normally following a blind shuffle of the deck. Once the hands are sorted, a starting contestant may choose a listed stat from their topmost unit to read aloud to the rest, who must reveal the value of the respective upper pieces for comparison. Whoever possesses the highest number on the category can take the others' slices and insert them at the bottom of the owned pile. This exact process proceeds until a single victorious participant remains with the amassed card monopoly.
If a draw happens for a quality, the cards are placed in the middle and a fresh classification based on the succeeding piece is selected by the same person as in the previous battle. Triumphing on this specific occasion results in the acquisition of the discarded mount in addition to the miscellaneous challengers' loots. Similar to further television themes, the Phineas and Ferb collection carries five personality and mentality measurements for the characters, those being the Big Ideas, Technology, Spoilsport, Secrecy, and Adventurous aspects.

Ahead is an index of the statistics found in each of the cards belonging to the Phineas and Ferb assemblages, arranged alphabetically.

Background Information[]
- Labels for the series' personages in the original activity employ either stock artworks layered atop the backyard background or screengrab renders taken from episodes of the first two seasons. Likewise, the remodeled variation uses many identical images as illustrations, differing on the constant colored stain backdrops.
- Stylizing the units is a light gray metallic nameplate, a blueprint sketch data board, a black screwed information panel, an orange and red rectangular speech bubble, and a miniature augmented racecar controller, complemented by a curvy cartoony font for the overall text.
- Some names of the characters are catalogued incorrectly in the cards, mostly as a byproduct of the development epoch for the toy. Namely, 2 Guyz N the Parque are recorded under "2 Guys in the Park", Baljeet's last name is misprinted as "Patel", Betty Jo is alternatively rendered "Betty-Jo", Linda lacks her double surname, and Love Händel is registered without the umlaut mark.
- In contrast to the primary model, the Portuguese variant simply leaves almost every character in a forename basis devoid of profiles and quotes, the exceptions being the Doofenshmirtz family members, Baljeet's innacurate patronymic, and Carl with his newly set family tag. This unwittingly resulted in Betty Jo, Reginald, and Monogram becoming "Betty", "Grandpa", and "Major".
- Strangely, Love Händel is plainly misspelled as "Love Hendel" in the Super Trunfo inventory, reflecting how it is commonly pronounced in the Brazilian Portuguese dub of the show rather than the band's spelling. Additionally, Balloony is referred to as the object type "Balão" (balloon) instead of its designation "Balone", owing it to a translation mistake in the chapter "Meapless in Seattle".
- Around the game's inception, American Disney Stores gave out three exclusive "supercards" on purchase as promotions for it, representing Agent E, Dr. Doofenshmirtz, and Thaddeus and Thor; the first of which does not come with the regular deck.
