Therefore, there are 52 playing cards being two of 26 cards each having one letter of the alphabet on its face side, and four cards being wild cards or written game play instruction cards; completing a total of 56 cards per card deck. The distribution of the alphabetic letters in the deck is equal as there are two copies of each letter card per deck.
