I am familiar with TCG basics, dabbled in Magic, played many boardgames. I am curious about Lorcana but so far all I know about it is that it's a Disney themed TCG.

What makes the game intriguing to you? What are some unique aspects of it? Anything you don't like about it? How much do I have to be into the theme to enjoy it? How much would I have to spend to enjoy the game 2p with my partner?

I haven't bought the game yet, but I am mainly just interested because of Disney theme. Have you looked at the cards?

As for how much to spend to enjoy the game 2P, just buy 2 starter sets. That's pretty much all you need. Of course you can keep buying different decks and something called booster cards (which I am not completely sure what they are 😀 ), if you want.

From the link in the sidebar, here is what's in a booster pack:

So, without reading /watching any links in the sidebar, or knowing anything about any TCG, I have a few questions:

  • What is a "foil card"?
  • How many rarities are there?
  • How many cards are there in a starter deck?

A foil card is just a card with holographic art. It's just shiny, basically.

There are 5 rarities: Common, uncommon, rare, super rare, and legendary There are enchanted cards too, but they're just alternates of other cards.

Starter decks come with 60 cards, plus one booster pack.

Ah cool. I have seen Pokémon "shiny" cards. I guess it's one of those.

Does this card play like normal non-foil card, or is there any in-game difference too.

[–] gourd 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They play just like any normal card, it's just a preference kind of thing

Got it. Thanks for the info!
