If you’re above about the age of 23, I’m betting there’s a good chance you have, at some point in your life, been obsessed with Pokemon trading cards and/or Magic: The Gathering. Recently, with no prior warning, the games industry seems to have renewed its love with the idea of trading cards – especially on tablets. From the Injustice mobile game to Tekken Card Tournament as well as the likes of Hearthstone, the several digital editions of Magic: The Gathering and even Steam Trading Cards, developers seem to be prepared to acknowledge that there’s a gap in the market for card games, at least to some extent.
Sadly, though, most of what’s on offer are card battle games gated with microtransactions rather than trading card games that capture the robust nuances of their physical predecessors.
