Film card games split into two: apps about one franchise, which Topps has covered for years, and the one game about films in general, which we make. Add a good physical card game and a couple of apps that get mistaken for games, and that is the whole category.
Every movie card game
| App | Cards are | Type | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Filmed Up Conwov | Films from every era and genre | Collect & trade | A digital movie trading card game: packs, trivia, numbered drops, a marketplace |

| Cinephile Cory Everett / Clarkson Potter | Actors and films | Physical / party game | A physical card game of connecting actors through their films |
| Letterboxd Letterboxd | Your film diary | Tracks physical cards | Logging and rating what you watch; not a game |
| Boxed Up Conwov | Real sneakers | Collect & trade | Same collecting game as Filmed Up, for sneakers |
| Tuned Up Conwov | Songs and artists | Collect & trade | Same collecting game, for music |
The movie trading card game
Filmed Up
Conwov · Collect & tradeThe only card collecting game about films in general, with the richest card detail and the strongest trivia.
Every card in Filmed Up is a real film — 6,100+ of them, from blockbusters to cult classics — and each carries the cast, director, year and plot on the card itself. Cards sit in a seven-tier rarity ladder with holographic glow variants above it, and the collection is built through packs, daily challenges and film trivia mini-games that pay in coins and gems. A live marketplace handles listings, auctions and direct offers, and weekly drops release a brand-new Green card in a fixed, serial-numbered supply.
Free on iOS and Android, every card earnable without paying, in-game coins only. Sister game to Boxed Up (sneakers) and Tuned Up (music). See the complete guide or browse every movie card.
Franchise card apps
Topps' digital collecting apps, one universe each. Same design across all three: daily releases, sets, inserts and direct player-to-player trading, with no gameplay beyond collecting.
Star Wars: Card Trader
Topps · Collect & tradeThe deepest franchise app, with years of sets behind it.
If Star Wars is the point, this is the app. Marvel Collect! and Disney Collect! follow the same template for their universes. None of them cover films outside their licence, which is the gap Filmed Up fills.
The physical movie card game
Cinephile
Cory Everett / Clarkson Potter · Physical / party gameConnect actors through the films they share. A tabletop trivia game, not a collection.
A beautifully illustrated deck of actors and several games built on it, from six-degrees-style chains to trivia. Good for film people around a table; nothing to collect or trade.
Film apps that are not games
Letterboxd
Letterboxd · Tracks physical cardsThe film diary. Log, rate, list and follow — no cards, no packs.
Letterboxd is where you record what you watched. It is not a collecting game, and the daily web quizzes (Framed, the Box Office Game) are trivia without a collection. If you want the trivia and something to keep, Filmed Up does both.
Questions people ask
- Is there a trading card game about movies?
- Yes. Filmed Up is a free digital trading card game where every card is a real film, with the cast, director, year and plot on the card. You open packs, collect across seven rarity tiers, play film trivia mini-games, trade on a live player marketplace and chase weekly limited drops of serial-numbered cards. It covers films from every studio and era rather than one franchise, and is on iPhone and Android.
- What about Star Wars, Marvel or Disney card apps?
- Topps runs a digital collecting app for each of those franchises: Star Wars: Card Trader, Marvel Collect! and Disney Collect!. They are collecting-first with set completion and player trading, and they are the right choice if you want one universe in depth. Filmed Up is the choice if you want films in general — Godfather to Barbie — in one collection.
- Is there a physical movie card game?
- Cinephile is the best-known one: a deck of actor cards and several games built on connecting actors through the films they share. It is a party and trivia game rather than a collecting game.
- Is Filmed Up a trivia game or a collecting game?
- Both, in that order of importance for most players. The collection is permanent and the marketplace is the economy; the trivia mini-games — guess the year, name the film from a still, higher-or-lower on ratings — are how you earn the coins and gems you spend on packs.
- Is Filmed Up free, and does it use NFTs?
- Free on iOS and Android with optional in-app purchases; every card can be earned by playing. No NFTs and no crypto: cards stay in the app, and the marketplace runs on in-game coins that cannot be cashed out.
- Can I watch the films in Filmed Up?
- No. It is a collecting and trivia game. Cards carry the film's details and artwork; if you want to track what you have watched, that is Letterboxd, which is not a game.
