English term or phrase: Gaming cards vs playing cards

A versatile Euro game which provides children with hands on experiences for identifying,counting,adding + subtracting, correlating and exchanging money + recognition of equivalent values. Contents : 1 x giant spinner, 2 x spinner cards, 4 x game cards, 36 playing cards. The object of the game is to spin the spinner, work out the value of the items and cover the game card with the appropriate pictures matching that value.

I cannot think of anything to distinguish playing cards from game cards. Any idea? This is to be used in Spain. Many many thanks in advance.

Al parecer, las tarjetas de juego sirven para identificar a cada jugador, y los naipes, para decidir la suerte de cada uno en cada jugada.

Gracias por la imaginación. Después de discutir este tema con el cliente, decidimos por el término "fichas" tan sólo porque son pequeñas tarjetas a las que se refiere.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Gracias por la imaginación. Sólo quería agregar ya que me olvidé hacerlo al principio que las "playing cards" son también tarjetas con figuras y por ello mi dilema en como diferenciarlas ya que desafortunadamente no tengo material de referencia/fotos.
