I tried a "Smart" TCG

02. März 2026 um 16:30

💾

I tried an upcoming card game that is filled with NFC tech! It features deckbuilding with grid control ideas, as you try to conquer the most land and have the most overall strength before the game ends. STCG Ragnarok's board automatically keeps track of cards’ health and abilities upon play. The board has speakers and lights to assist in all this, with a rechargeable battery! There’s no need for chips or counters to play. On your turn, you either play a card or pass, that’s it! How does this compare to other TCGs and LCGs like Magic the Gathering or Yugioh?

Thanks for stopping by! We're Amy & Maggie aka ThinkerThemer. We're an Australian couple with two very different perspectives of what makes a great board game - Amy (Thinker) is all about the mechanics and enjoys tight, competitive games, and Maggie (Themer) is all about the storytelling and the theme of the game, and the 'world' that the designer is trying to create. Subscribe to our channel to hear us talk about these two elements of a game, and how well integrated we feel these are in delivering a cohesive and wonderful game experience.
