I made a TCG themed gameshow for my friends! There are questions about common card games like #pokemontcg and #yugioh to questions about really obscure TCG you've have DEFINITELY not heard of.

It's wild that as an outsider to the Dragon Ball Super card games ( I stopped playing masters back with like set 6) the only time I ever hear about the game ate from cheating scandals

I really didn't want to make this video, since I'm not a big fan of confrontation. But we made a PSA about a game that uses AI artwork, and has been repeatedly lying about it, saying they only use real artists

Man it's so sad that the 2020s version of a dad forcing thier kid into football to fulfill themselves is now actively using your kid to scam people for what was once just a fun game for kids.

Kevin Cracks Cards gave us a glowing review for our ethics and care as a game company. I'm really proud to see that our reputation is that we support our players, designers, and other indie devs.

New pickup! Mischievous Pichu 214/S-P

I love collecting obscure Pokemon cards! I don't typically buy recently released promos but I really lived the art on this one. It's a crossover with an influencer and a fashion brand IDK check Bulbapedia.

Tariffs really do effect every part of our industry negatively. Just last night I went through my routine of importing a bunch of vintage JP Pokemon cards. Had a few hundred $ in cart then remembered what a pain it'll be and cancelled. Bummer.
