From a YouTube comment (eeeuw!), the reason for the 55 cards instead of 57 is confirmed:
> The reason why this game doesn't include 57 cards is indeed that the printing company that is used by asmodee (the game company that acquired the rights to Dobble) can only print 55 cards on a print sheet. That's what asmodee told to a german math YouTuber (DorFuchs) which they sponsered to promote the game.
I've played a related game called "Ghost Blitz" in which you're trying to find either the correctly coloured object, or if that isn't on the card, you grab the object that isn't represented on the card by its object or colour.

- mcphage 3y agoGiven there's 2 different people in this thread recommending Ghost Blitz: okay, okay, message received. I ordered it.
- ndsipa_pomu 3y agoIt's a peculiar game as you have to try to get your brain to "look" for the colours/objects that aren't there. You can consciously eliminate the objects one by one, but inevitably someone else will be quicker than you. When you get the knack for how to quickly find the missing item, you suddenly end up winning lots of round in a row.
