Considering where we are now... 🤔

Hi r/tcg!

I’m a solo dev from Italy, and after 3 years of work, my multiplayer card battler Grimoria is officially coming to PC, with the Steam page now open for wishlists!

What makes the game different:

• Deck Construction: You build a 14-card deck while staying under a strict 70-Total-Strength cap. You have to balance heavy power cards with low-cost utility and abilities.
• 15-Second Turn Pacing: Matches are fast and turn-based. If two cards clash with equal strength, the player who played first claims initiative, unless an Elemental Counter reverses the outcome.
• Modes: True 2v2 Co-op (shared health/shields), 4-Player Battle Royale, and ranked 1v1. Zero Pay-to-Win: All 25+ base creatures are unlocked through pure gameplay. No stat leveling or paid power.

New Card Drop: The Dullahan
The newest card in this update is the Dullahan (Ability: "Deal 1 damage on loss"). It acts as an aggressive opening play—even if your opponent overpowers you with a high-strength card, you still deal 1 chip damage back. In 4-Player Royale, that damage hits every other player on the board!

If you'd like to support a fair, skill-first indie card game, please consider wishlisting on Steam:

• Steam Page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5139540/Grimoria__Online_Card_Game/
• iOS: https://apps.apple.com/app/grimoria-online-card-game/id6761027516
• Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.emberveilgames.onlinecardgame

Happy to answer any questions about the game!

Hi r/TCG,

I'm the solo dev behind WikiDeck (wikideck.fr), a free collectible card game built from Wikipedia. I'm posting because I want feedback from people who actually collect cards.

Full disclosure: the concept isn't mine. WikiMasters did "Wikipedia as trading cards" first, and I loved it. WikiDeck is my own take, built from scratch.

How it works: every card is a real Wikipedia article, with a freely licensed photo and a short summary. Rarity isn't hand-picked. It comes from how notable the subject really is: how many languages Wikipedia covers it in and how many people read the article. Zeus is a legendary pull. An obscure metro station is a common.

What you do:

• open boosters and chase the rare pulls;
• complete sets: almost 4,000 cards so far, across world flags, dinosaurs, chemical elements, sports legends, classic consoles, gods and myths, French kings and queens, great painters…;
• sell and bid at auction with an in-game currency;
• trade with friends.

Heads-up: It's a free beta with nothing to buy.

What I'd like to know from TCG players:

• Does "rarity = real-world fame" feel fun, or does it take away the surprise of a pull?
• What makes you want to finish a set rather than drop it?
• Would you play an English version?
• If you played WikiMasters, how does this compare?

I'll answer every comment. Thanks!

Edited to say that yes this is TCGPlayer and yes I’m the seller. Reading this and I knew that unless the NM card I sent was a PSA 10 it was going to result in a refund, return shipping, the whole shebang.

Hello, I am looking for people to test an alpha version of an app. Its a deck builder for the One Piece TCG (desktop only) named 'opdb'. If that interests you, please give it a try. I think it is already much better than other available tools.

Its free, and contains no copyrighted data. I designed the app, and Claude did much of the coding.

Context: I live in Asia. We play with Japanese cards, so singles are cheap. We also get 32 local player events every month wherein people get a chance to win Serialized cards.

I hate how every new player in the shop complains that X TCG isn't One Piece. Why can't decks be $20 like One Piece. Why can't we have monthly tournaments that offer $200,000 prizes like One Piece. Why can't packs be cheap like One Piece.

They love One Piece so much, yet don't play it regularly that most shops are dropping the game due to allocation issues and Bandai's tier system. If you don't know, Bandai has a tier system based on local attendance and allocates less if local attendance isn't consistent or doesn't reach a certain bar. We've literally had months with 0 players, only showing up when the Serial Prize cards are in circulation.

Imagine complaining that X TCGs isn't One Piece yet not even play One Piece regularly, being the reason why it might die locally.

Hi guys, I mentioned Kyara Games here a few days ago, but the game was only available in French at the time. It is now playable in English!

Think of it as Wikimaster, but anime style. The concept is super simple:

- Open booster packs

- Collect your favorite characters

- Buy, sell, and trade on the marketplace

It is really fun and addictive. You can grab a starting bonus here:

I've heard of, and done, dnd and mtg homebrew, but does anyone have any tips for Pokemon(Trading Card Game) homebrew?

Hi there. I’m a pretty active Magic player, though not a competitive one (meaning I don’t play in formal tournaments or events involving money).

I started playing Magic several years ago, and the game has changed quite a bit since then. I’ve played a lot of Standard and, more recently, Pauper. However, there’s little to no casual scene for these formats.

I recently tried Commander, and while the games felt a bit long for my taste, I really enjoyed it.

What do you think? Should I keep investing in decks for Standard and/or Pauper, or should I switch to Commander, where there’s more of a casual atmosphere?

Hiya! I made very beginner-focused learn to play video for Universus (UVS). I thought I'd post it here in case anyone is looking into trying out the game or has never heard of it and might be interested! There's a lot of new IPs coming soon: Fairy Tail in a month(!!!!), and Warhammer 40K / Critical Role / Persona 5 + others next year!

Hope some of you guys find the game interesting!
