      Thanks for asking. Pogs are thin cardboard wafers - often decorated with 90s cartoon characters. Slammers are thicker heavier wafers, which get thrown at a stack of Pogs to try to flip them. The game plays a lot like “marbles”, overall.

      I don’t know if it’s on purpose, but the metal “Bitcoin” coins that were being sold for awhile happen to be the right size to make decent “slammers” for the game of Pogs.
