The present disclosure relates generally to electronic playing cards, each of the playing cards comprising opposing first and second planar playing card surfaces such that, when being viewed by the corresponding player, the first planar playing card surface faces the other players and the second planar playing card surface faces the corresponding player. The first and/or second planar playing card surface can comprise a digital display.
