The biggest challenge for any trading card game—especially as it matures and the sheer amount of content grows—is creating entry points so players can dive in without feeling intimidated by the ever-increasing complexity.
While Disney Lorcan already has several starter decks you can purchase as an introduction. Target shoppers can now get the best all-in-one starting point: Disney Lorcana Gateway. This set includes everything you need to learn the game, with step-by-step instructions, as well as a game board and other accessories to help you expand your knowledge of the game’s mechanics in a gradual yet fun way. There are two starter decks so you can jump right into one-on-one battles with friends, as well as four curated reward packs to expand and customize your deck.
