I'm passionate about building different decks and always trying new ideas, but official digital card games are always limiting the player, which is understandable, they need money to sustain the ecosystem - HS, MTGA and so on. Do you guys know any option that is alive? Thank you all in advance!

Stumbled on the game Cardaire on Steam and really liking how nostalgic I feel playing it. If you loved the older GBA games like yugioh or pokemon tcg I really recommend it. Nice to see this sub-genre still getting some love

Hello everyone! I noticed that most people dont actually know about this cardgame. Ive started playing it in 2021 and have since then been playing it atleast twice weekly.

Its very f2p friendly (not quite as LoR but due to the nature of the game it works a bit differently, more on that later)
It gets regular updates and has quite a bit of money. Ive never been in que for more than 30 secs at any rank.
Gorgeous art and animations.

Gameplay: You choose 4 shikigami out of a huge lineup and include 8 card of each (each shikigami has 8 unique cards, and you can use up to 2 copies of each)
Your shikigami are your units and your deck consists of form,spell, field and combat cards of those. Game slowly ramps up etc...

Honestly give it a try if youre looking for something to grip you. The solo story mode will set you up with quite a big range of different duels to see if you like it.

It has a steam client, and I would recommend that you play it on the steamclient first and then afterwards connect your googleplay account to your steamclient.
I cant really play on the steamclient since it doesnt work the otherway around and I didnt wanna restart my collection of cards and skins when the steamclient launched.

If you have any questions about the game just let me know.

That maybe gets updated and everything.

Names I've seen a lot are Pokémon, Magic, Yu Gi Oh, Legends of Runterra, Gwent, Shadowverse, Hearthstone, and it seems like those are the only ones with lots of players (less for LoR and Gwent due to lack of updates).

I don't wanna just try everyone of those...

I like the idea of collecting cards and playing games with them, but have no desire to play online and have special time based events and stuff like that. I just want a standalone experience where you can collect cards and fight against AI/bots. Any good games? The one I've found that is closest to what I want is the pokemon TCG on gameboy color, but the graphics are obviously very low-res, which makes it a bit harder to enjoy since you have to menu-dive a lot. I've also seen magic the gathering shandalar recommended, but it's pretty old. I might check it out, though. Are there any other options?

Im looking for singleplayer or local multiplayer card games that can be modded, like making custom cards and such.

I want something with gameplay like traditional tcg's or ccg's but without competitive online modes and mod support.

Is there a game like that?

I've recently become hyperfixated on card games but idk if its just me but it feels like online pvp card games are kind of dying out? Marvel Snap is doing well and is really fun and Pokemon TCG Pocket is fun, but are there any other games? I really like LOR but its basically dead when it comes to PVP. Would love any recommendations for new and old digital PVP card games that are still active!

Edit: Gonna try some of the games from the comments thank yall a lot! Just downloaded MTGA and it actually seems pretty fun and like a good replacement for LOR

Can anyone give any recommendations for more unconventional card games? I'm more referring to singleplayer adventure (not roguelike) type games that have card collecting and deck building as a mechanic, but their own unique combat systems.

The best examples I can give are Megaman Battle Network, Library of Ruina and Kingdom Hearts chain of memories.

Nowadays it feels like all card games either follow a mtg-like style or slay the spire-like style.

So I started playing hearthstone last year and was having some serious fun vs mtg arena, but one thing that stuck with me was this: in mtg arena I can make any deck I want if I have the wildcards but dust( to create legos) seems to come slower or could be much more $$.

Would I need to drop like $300 a set to get all the legendary cards per expansion?

So I played a whole ass card game back in the mid 2013-16 and it was an anime inspired game about a school and each deck was a different club. Can’t remember the name but I was wondering if anyone else played it or remembers it.

If i can dust cards, I'll craft them, then regret it, then dust it, till i am at 0 dust 😭 So games like hearthstone and yugioh master duel are bad for me Oh yeah and i already play lor 😁

Yo, I've hopped around every card game and keep coming back to Hearthstone, my first love. I'm playing less and less and i've tried moving on, but Snap and MTG:A felt predatory, and though I'm enjoying the Bazaar, auto battlers have never scratched the same itch as competitive PvP does. Do you guys have any games you can recommend? Extra props if it's also not a rougelike. I love cross blitz and slay the spire, but I'd really like something that feels like a TCG

Hello everyone. Can someone recommend a CCG game that following next requirenments:

1. Popular and active. Huge active player base and active developers that actually work on game
2. Addictive and competitive PvP mode
3. Easy or acceptable to play without spending real money
4. Often updates that keep you in the game. So you don't play same deck for months or at least there's some point to do so.
5. Overall great, healthy and growing CCG game with perspectives in future updates.

In short, looking for a really good alternative to Gwent and Hearthstone.

I played Gwent and currently have all existing cards in the game + all of them animated. Since gwent is no longer maintainable by developers and player base dropped, as well a point of PvP. Not a good choice. Hearthstone goes down the same way, devs don't care about the game anymore, same decks, no nerfs for months. So now I started LoR, game feels alright, but feels very empty like no one play this game anymore and simplicity of UX/UI make you think devs don't care about the game either. Not sure about these words, since I tried to google player base of LoR and other things, but found nothing.

There used to be a bunch of collectible "card" sets (it wasn't really a game, you'd just collect/trade the pretty pixels) that you would have to set up your own webpage to display your collection, and usually you'd make a new email to conduct trades? There were rules about how to earn new cards, and there were sets from all sorts of random things, Final Fantasy, Harvest Moon... But I can't seem to figure out if these silly browser tcg's still exist? I feel like this was around 2008 and everyone's collection page was just on geocities or something.

We're excited to announce that Card Summoner is participating in Steam's Next Fest! In the demo, you'll learn how to duel, battle against a variety of opponents, open packs, and build your own deck.
