Well, all of the card games are a bit of work for larger classes, but yes. My largest class is 7 students, so 3-4 sets one grouping (passive verbs or phrasal verbs for example) are enough.
I don't make individual Get 'em cards for every set though. I only have made them for fantasy 1 and 2, passive verbs 1 and 2, and phrasal verbs 1 and 2. I made the files for sports but never actually printed them out and made the cards.
If I deal with larger classes, such as my college classes, 40-45 students. I generally play with just the plain cards and yes, I go in there with 300 Get 'em cards or 250 yes/no game cards.
I teach quite a few small groups and so I get a lot of milage out of a complete set. Also, at the nursing college I have 5 classes a year that size (every year.) So, again, it's worth the effort now to go ahead and just make all the cards.
If you only have a few cards, you can give out one to every student. When on student loses, they come to the front and ask for a new card. That will keep the game going.
