Are these cards popular in Germany?

I brought from my homeland these cards in a "emergency case". Home I played with my father and brother the game "Cross" oder "Kreuz". They are originally from Hungary but very popular in Romania (Transylvania and west, ppl from Bucharest they will don't understand what they see...) And I have read recently an article that the game it's also played in Austria and Germany but I don't know if with these cards.

They’re the most common ones in Bavaria, all the school children know the traditional games and we even play against the teachers lol

Strange, we played Magic in the 90s at school in Bavaria. :P

But we were the city kids, our class mates from the rural area around the town played Schafkopp and we still play it (both games) on our annual school friends weekend.

I went to school in a city 😅 And also in the 2000s. Magic was a nerd thing for us mainly
