Meet the Matchimals
Every Matchimals deck holds 28 animals, and every animal is worth a different number of points when you match it — from the humble 1-point bat to the mighty 10-point cat and dog. Here's the whole cast, with a fun fact about each (the facts are real; the animals are very proud of them).
