Promo Cards

This page is intended to list all known Fluxx® promo cards available. While almost all of these could theoretically be used in any 2.0+ deck, some of them have functionality or printing differences that makes them truly only compatible with certain variants. The lists here indicate other distributions for each card but do not go into detail about those differences. Individual card pages list further details about each card.

#### Loose Promos

**Loose Promos** are cards given out or sold as single cards. Many of these have been given out at conventions such as Gen Con, Dragon\*Con, Origins, and so on, or given away when ordering from the Looney Labs Webstore. A good number of them could be ordered directly from the webstore. Others have been given out only in person under special circumstances. Some of the rarer ones were extremely limited and are no longer easily available. Promos have been printed from the very start with First Edition, and continue to be printed to this day, on varying qualities of card stock.

#### Punch-out Postcard Promos

Punch-out Postcards are approximately 4" by 6" and have the card in a perforated area that must be "punched" out or cut to separate the card from the backing. As a result, the card edges ended up being of extremely poor quality (depending on who was doing the cutting), and often did not match up with cards in decks. These were short-lived between 2007-2009**☮**. All of them have been reprinted as loose promos or included in decks except two. Start the Clock was a poor card playability-wise, and Zombies Eat Brains went by the wayside because of the changes to Death in 4.0+.

#### Peel-off Postcard Promos

Peel-off Postcards are 4" by 6" like the Pull-off ones, but have the card attached by cellophane that must be "peeled" or pulled off to separate it from the backing. As a result, the front or "face" of the cards tend to have a sheen to them, and often the cards bend away from that sheen and stick to other cards when playing. If sleeves are used, however, these Peel-off cards work just fine in a deck. They were printed from 2010-2015**☮**.

#### Magazine Promos

Magazine Promos are those that were included in magazines throughout the years. As of January 2021, all of them were in Game Trade Magazine issues. Many of these were exclusively distributed at conventions and subscribers may not have received them.

#### Group Promos

Groups are collections of cards given out together but not sealed in foil or cellophane, but possibly banded with a plastic ring or a small zip-top bag. Sometimes they are simply given out as a set together and not packaged or banded in any way at all.

#### Expansion Pack Cards

Expansions are collections of cards bundled and sold as a set, and come wrapped in foil, cellophane, or polybag packaging.

**See Expansions** for a list of all known Expansion Packs.

#### Special Promos

Special Promos are cards that are distributed with other items as special packages, such that the cards could not be obtained otherwise, at least initially.

#### Error/Misprint Replacement Promos

Several cards have been given out as replacements for serious printing errors over the years. Looney Labs provided these free of charge while the product they were in was still available and in print. Generally this was done on small runs of errors. Larger runs (such as the Black Knight Expansion issue) that affect whole product runs are not listed here for brevity, and instead will be listed on that product's page. Also see the related products for more details.
