TCG Interview #89: Champions of the Overthere

I spoke with the creator of Champions of the  Overthere! Here are his answers to my questions: Q: Please describe your trading card game! A: Champions of the Overthere (CoTO) is a fun and easy TCG that we think anyone can pick up and play. We didn’t overcomplicate it with a million symbols and effects. It’s a 2 player (though we do envision multiple play modes) game, where you will use equipment and abilities that synergize with champion (character) cards to try to defeat the other in battle. Utilize traps and other powerful effects from the champion cards as well to boost your attack, defense and utility.  Q: What inspired you to create your own TCG? A: Tabletop games like D&D. Originally, CoTO was an in-game card game for my D&D campaign, similar to Gwent in “The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt”, where the players could collect past characters and NPCs to battle against others for gold and other rewards. However, it just kept growing, and soon we realized what amazing characters we had

TCG Interview #88: Disc Cards

I spoke with Rob Eames, the creator of Disc Cards- h ere are his answers to my questions!  Q: Please describe your trading card game! A: I have always thought of it as a child of Magic: the Gathering and Yahtzee lineage, with Disc Golf  serving as the Midwife. That’s the glib answer, the serious one is this:  Disc Cards is a Trading Card Game, to be sold in Specialty Game Shops and especially Disc Golf Pro  Shops.  Players have a Deck of 60 cards, with no more than 3 of the same Disc Side allowed, and no more  than 3 of the same Location Side allowed. Each player has three 6-sided dice, and they use their dice  rolls and Disc Cards to match the obstacles along their chosen Route (players can choose to go for a  Par, a Birdie, or an Ace: a hole in one). You can play Disc Cards with a Group or Solo, you can decide to play high risk/reward or low-risk conservative, you can choose to help your opponents or you can choose to hinder your opponents:  there are a lot of options with Gameplay.
