Disney LorcanRavensburger’s up-and-coming trading card game competing against each other Magic: The GatheringThe Pokémon trading card gameAnd Star Wars Unlimited Among other things, his sixth set of cards is out. The journey continues into the Azurite Sea with a solidly built, themed starter deck pair available for pre-order now. Honestly, with so many different fictional universes in the mix, it feels like this game is finally taking off.
Azurite SeaLed by the Rescue Rangers’ Gadget Hackwrench, Brilliant Bosun, the Emerald and Sapphire deck is all about keeping the item cards in play. Once you have three on the table, character cards with the keyword “Inventor” come into play for one less ink. And boy howdy does this deck have a whole lot of them, including most of the cast of Big Hero 6; Goofy, skilled shipbuilder; and another version of Gadget subtitled Perceptive Mouse.
Meanwhile, the set’s Amber and Ruby deck features a far more diverse crew led by Tigger, In The Crow’s Nest. Capable hands include Fix It Felix, Jr., Jim Hawkins and John Silver of Treasure Planetthe complete complement of Peter Pan‘s Darling children as well as Moana and Jasmine.
Thanks to Moana, leader of Kakamora, this deck finally brings the game’s location cards to the forefront. Using their mass travel ability called Gathering Forces, you can land a rogue regiment on distant beaches to earn a Lore for each sailor landed.
The entire collection is well related to ship-shaped art. After a fairly simple release, it’s good to see that the mechanics all work well with the theme.
Azurite Sea arrives at local retailers and select Disney Parks on November 15th, with a wider release to follow.
