Disney is hopping into the world of trading card games with this release, and hardcore fans are already delighted by the tantalizing card art teasers. On its surface there&#8217;s\u00a0already a lot to love &#8211; who doesn&#8217;t want to create a deck of your favorite Disney characters? But you may be curious about how the game will actually play\/progress and be won. And we&#8217;re here with info on that.<\/p>\n<p>Players &#8211; called &#8220;Illumineers&#8221; will\u00a0send their Characters on a Quest to capture Lore, using that Lore to win matches. This is a departure from the standard TCG approach of depleting your opponent&#8217;s points.\u00a0Casting characters and spells within\u00a0<em>Disney Lorcana<\/em>\u00a0requires players to pay that card\u2019s Ink cost. Abilities can also have an Ink cost, while some can get cast for free. But it all starts with cards that are in the <strong>Inkwell<\/strong>; players can add one Inkable card from their hand to the Inkwell once per turn. If you&#8217;re familiar with MtG, you can think of the Inkwell as your mana pool.<\/p>\n<p>Cards that are on the battlefield and Inkwell will be in one of two positions: <strong>Ready<\/strong> or <strong>Exerted<\/strong> (the equivalent of untapped\/tapped for players familiar with these types of games).\u00a0Activating abilities and other game rules will require a player to Exert a card in order to gain an effect, use an ability, collect Lore counters, and pay a card\u2019s Ink casting cost.\u00a0An alternative cost gameplay is a <strong>Song<\/strong>. Some actions will have a Song on them that provides players with another way to pay for that action.<\/p>\n<p>The easiest and most cost effective way to dip your toes into this brand new TCG is to pick up a\u00a0<em>Disney Lorcana: The First Chapter<\/em>\u00a0starter deck; there are three to choose from in this first wave and each is priced at around $35.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/2a2ea4d350756f5b994da5406\/images\/40478ab0-ee76-4016-2c23-ee39db6ee579.jpeg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Starter Deck Contents;<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>60 cards, including two foil cards of the characters on the package front.
