I mainly like TCGs for the art direction and theme, and yours is the best one I've seen him review! I love the consistency and quality, and the futuristic edge.
Vanquishers sounds like a bunch of dudes who really liked playing Destiny and Halo said, "what if we made this into a card game?" And actually followed through with it.
12:05 - haha lol I'm making a TCG and I'm seeing a lot of ideas from those games converging into my game, this is really cool to see. This idea of playing cards on top of your resources is something I intent to use, but also I'm allowing the resources to be targeted as pieces to be damaged. I don't want to reveal too much but I'm really enjoying the ideas, and seeing that those ideas are being experimented on and opinions on it is always very helpful as a designer.
@@jacobcrawford8456 what do you think of a TCG where the way to win depends on the opponent. Where your deck tells you how you lose. and its back and forth instead of full individual turns? Do you think there is a market for less turn based and more timing based and response
Absolutely loved the video. Gave a good overview of each of these and a couple grabbed my interest. I kind of regret not backing Runeslingers. I was going to get involved with testing for Wager of Troupes but never got around to it. It does look absolutely beautiful. Can't really get a grasp on the gameplay though from the overview. Would love to see more info on that.
Can I offer a suggestion? Could you change the roll mechanic? I'd rather add the two stats together, instead of subtracting each other and then rolling above the initiative. It feels unintuitive to subtract two stats and then try to roll high.
Great video! Smooth content! Well done! Id love to see wager expanded upon, and id personally love to see Varia and Genesis and Kryptik gone over. Cheers and thank you for all your effort in this!!
Excellent video and incredibly enjoyable. Thank you Crypt for introducing all of these card games! I honestly hadn't heard about any, and they all seem to have really interesting mechanics
Great video! Love the quick overview of each mechanics, I was looking forward to you reviewing Kryptik TCG. Maybe in the next video? Keep up the great content! You gained a subscriber.
@@CardGameCrypt It essentially functions how Commander in Magic would work. First player still draws. Each other player draws if you mulligan. Other than that, pretty standard.
Hey this is a rather cool video. Would be awesome if you could do this with ever tcg, ccg and lcg out there. Great introduction to the various games that exist.
A lot of cool and unique games in this list but I'm most impressed by Wager of Troupes. The purpose, mechanics, naming, art etc. everything just flows so nicely according to their theme. It's very niche and I'm sure that will somewhat hold it back but it deserves a way bigger audience (no pun intended). What a great looking game!
You should check out Chaos Galaxy TCG. It's a little more indie and homemade than the rest, but it's still a great game. Currently in the process of releasing the fifth set. The playerbase is pretty small and niche but it's still a very fun game with some unique mechanics
Will you ever do a video on Grand Archive tcg, Nostalgix tcg, Spells of magic, Historica tcg, Sorcery contested realm, Galamons tcg, Genesis boc, and W.A.R(world auto racing)? That would be dope!
I know GA, Nostalgix, Sorcery, Spells of Magic and Genesis are on TTS and I also have a copy of W.A.R. I've also contacted the Galamon dev on making them a TTS so it would be on there but I never really got a reply. The only one of these I don't have any of is Historica. Thanks for the suggestions, some of these will definitely show up on a part 2!
Fantastic video. Really really well done. I would assume you’ve played Kryptik and Otherverse. If not you need to check it out. Kryptik is FANTASTIC and Otherverse has a very fun, and simple gameplay thst uses a wager system with effects that is really quite fun.
as much as i like card games.... i don't know what small companies are thinking when they go to kickstarter for a TCG. I mean yeah SOME of them get some hype (like flesh and blood but ... that's not much popular over here in Germany) and in a market where even TCGs with a big name (like Final Fantasy) are just doing "good" ..... why not making some kind of LCG model with fixed cards? (especially Omni with it's single card decks) I don't think many tcg players will jump to a different tcg just because they see a Kickstarter. I mean you are already deeply invested in one tcg so you rarely do the same for a second. Primal looks interesting... but the artworks are not consistend. I don't have anything against waifus and anime... but then seeing a dragon or monster which could be from the DnD 5E book is weird. But PLEASE more of this :-D
6 months late but flesh and blood wasnt a kickstarter tcg. They did everything the old way. But yeah too many kickstarter games.. and a lot of them arent even good.
Every single time the new game is announced I fear that it might steal my ideas, But I've come to realize The chance of someone doing exactly what I'm doing is infinite decibel.
Omni looks waaaaaaaay to complicated, games need to be simplistic to play but hard to master. You lost me once you started to go over the mechanics where you need to tribute summon your 3 blue eyes to make an ultimate blue eyes and then you need to tribute syncro xyz that one again to form the super duper mega blue eyes. It flet like I was watching an episode of yugioh lol
Oh wow, that really is a ton like the Naruto card game. ...and the old Dragon Ball card game. And the Ben 10 card game. Bandai really liked that gameplay style.
Wager of troupes looks awesome, but i think the demon ones look to similar to rakdos, maybe a cirque do freaks esque theme or poets and soliloquy things could be better, but regards i really like it
Hi, someone who got the Primal Demo decks here. I was pretty excited for Naruto tcg to get remade, but when I actually got a chance to look through everything my heart sank: about 35% of the cards use ai generated images as the card art. The creators DO have a team of artists, both beginners and veterans, but I felt like I was tricked after learning they use ai art and do not disclose it. Left me with an icky feeling.
They didn't even know it was an issue I don't think - all the AI images are from the Promo pack - the kickstarter had no AI images as far as I know and they are removing them from the final product.
I agree but I feel like it comes down to deck building. If there are too many high cost cards in your deck, then you make it harder on yourself to do anything. Plus I am not sure but I think they were using starters for thoes games.
@@delpeck2067 well, starters should never have the opportunity to create nongames, as that creates a bad experience and something that will deter new players from getting into a game. But, I can see these issues being a common thing since it has some mechanics that dilute your deck with natural inconsistency. Hard to say without trying it. The game looks gorgeous, and has some interesting ideas. I might try it on TTS.
@@TSDreamCreative yeah the art is super cute and I love the game, the creator said he's gonna look into rearranging the decks so this kind of interaction dosent happen.
I’ve been working on a new game called Land Of The Fallen and a Kickstarter will be happening some time this summer I would love for you to try it. Let me know if you’d be up for it. Michael
Life decking isn't that bad. Sure you might occasionally get your cool card milled. But you can also get bad cards milled. A ton of card games have decks that actually want to mill themselves, mainly because they have some sort of recursion effects or effects that require you to fill your graveyard in order to be used. So long as a life decking game is designed with graveyard recursion being common, then I honestly think life decking can not only be functional, but a cool comeback mechanic. Getting your cool card milled may initially seem like a feels bad moment, but it can be easily turnef into a feels good moment if you have a card in your hand that can add the cool card back to your hand. There's no inherent problem with life decking, the real problem is that a lot of designers just slap life decking into their game instead of a normal life point system without actually thinking about the gameplay implications it would cause
As a developer, I wanted to say thank you for taking the time to review and give your feedback on Vanquishers TCG.
vanquishers is great! Maybe I played magic and Warhammer so dice don't scare me lolz. roll to hit ftw!
I mainly like TCGs for the art direction and theme, and yours is the best one I've seen him review! I love the consistency and quality, and the futuristic edge.
Out of all of these, runeslingers and especially water of troupes seem the most fun to me. And the artwork of the last game looks amazing.
The wettest troupes to ever perform. 😆
Vanquishers sounds like a bunch of dudes who really liked playing Destiny and Halo said, "what if we made this into a card game?" And actually followed through with it.
Troupes was super unique, that sounds like a really fun concept! Would love to see a follow up video of more indie tcgs, this was fun
Wow from a designers standpoint, Wager of Troupes looks fucking amazing.
Hey, thanks for the shoutout. I love how you concisely made 7 game tutorials under 27 minutes. 😊
2 years late for the Runeslingers print and play version x.x
Nice video, didn't know about any of these, thank you for sharing
6:52 DON’T THINK I DON’T HEAR THAT SONG FROM THE 80s TRANSFORMERS MOVIE

Be careful with resource destruction, it could snowball the game if it's a base mechanic!
I’m also a card game dev, let me know if you want to get into contact or somthing, always down to playtest games btw

This was a great video! In a lot of ways, better than the actual tutorial videos (if they had any) than the games themselves. Really good stuff!

I've seen a tiny bit of that game and it is interesting
liked the video. randomly got it suggested and was surprised how small your channel after watching this quality video.
Omni looks pretty fun
Really Good quality of video, I'd love to see another on Deck Building Games too!
Really well done again. I loved it. Very informative about the games and I still love the style of editing.
Great video for sure
I love this video concept! Seems like a very easy thing to turn into a series if you would want to. Plus I love your sense of humor!
Runeslinger looks really cool
Also I'd love to see more polywog and runeslingers
I can show you some Runeslingers. It's a good time
Love the video my guy!!
This is awesome and very helpful. I would love to see a series of them.
Awesome video! Sounds like it was a fun week
Give Legion: Realms at War a shot. Multiplayer is a lot of fun.

Great deal.

thanks mang! I'm actually working on a part 2 of this right now! I should have just split them up.
Loved the video, would defo like to see you play more Wager, it looks amazing and looks like it played very well
Yeah, great stuff. Thank you for this. We need more!
I saw a Grand Archive Card at the beginning. Why you did´t played/showed this game? Its really nice by the way ^^
Every single time the new game is announced I fear that it might steal my ideas, But I've come to realize The chance of someone doing exactly what I'm doing is infinite decibel.

gr8 vid!
Oh wow, that really is a ton like the Naruto card game.

nice video. i plan on releasing a card game in a couple months but it's going to be free. I justwant credit for the ideas.
Shoutout to primal for super weird banding ! I loves me some banding. i made a deck with shieldbearers and clones. Cuz i could!.... lolz....
No it's actually becuase I already had channelball savage lock and no-zilla 36 counterspells. 😊 @ that point why not !
Nostalgix TCG is a phenomenal tcg, you should try playing it!
My favorite TCG out of all the new ones is definitely Grand Archive. Game is sick
Polywog looks rad.
Would you make a video on canceled card games like naruto megaman or even a video on old card games before they got remade like digimon or one piece?
I have one about ONE of the old digimon games on my channel, way back! I'll get to the dead games eventually, I am the Card Game Crypt after all.
Hell yeah, strategery!

Recommend checking out Legions Realms At War. It’s really good!
@6:36 More complicated than 7th Sea!? Oh, probably the remake.. because the original wasn't that bad.
Polywog all the way ;)

Tabletop Simulator lol
Why are the Phases of Omni written in Papyrus...?
I cannot answer that - bonetrousle starts playing
Can you review Terrafyte?

Sure! I don't think youtube will let me post it in the comments, so I'll email it to you.

Do we?

how do you play these games on computer?

Thanks
I totally agree with you on what matters in a tcg lol. Gameplay and S H I N Y
Encore!
Primale really looks fun but my god they better nerf that Baltazar thats a huge power creep
Thankfully they did!
primal is exactely naruto?
Pretty much
Wow you were not kidding Primal is literally Naruto TCG from wish
Even the card ui is like the same
As a person who thought i was being original making a card game lol
Yeah there's A LOT of people making their own TCG/ECG out there.
You can learn TCG in 1 day? WHAT?
I CAN LEARN IT, I CAN LEARN IT NINE TIMES!
sad that polywog was a scam, looked like a cute game
Make another one...
Workin on it. Had to stop for a while to train for Digimon Store Champs

can you slow down next time you make this kinda of video i liked the other 7 list more this one felt chaotic.
This was the first one I did, the other one is the second one, so wish granted I think!
