Other Trumps sets

Two Trumps games precede Winning Moves' Top Trump packs.

In 1978, Jotastar made the Doctor Who Trump Card Game a forty card pack with only three stats: Mental Ability, Special Powers, and Weapons.
The BBC website has made a number of Trump games for various series including Buffy the Vampire Slayer and EastEnders.
- Their first classic Doctor Who set, Alien Fact Files, was a thirty-two card pack that used four stats: Weapons, Intelligence, Speed, and Stamina. It launched in November 1998.
- Their second set, Who Trumps, was a twenty card pack that used four stats: Strength, Style, Intelligence, and Fear Factor. It launched on 8 November 2002.^[1]
