I can highly relate to this, great piece! In regards of Final Fantasy in MTG, I really recommend building a set cube, it’s a great way to enjoy a singular set without caring about the way too frequent new product waves: bsky.app/profile/chro...

Yeah, it’s loosely based on this. Without the bonus sheet cards though, since those cards are only available in English and I wanted to build a German cube for ease of accessibility among friends. cubecobra.com/cube/overvie...

Ohh this reminds me a lot of the art style in Decline’s Drops. (That’s a compliment, I like that art style a lot.)

I don’t dislike them. Anything goes if the game’s design clicks together well for me.

I was today years old when I learned that Kid Clown in Crazy Chase has a sequel on PlayStation 1. I must admit its graphics lose a bit of charm by not being fully sprite-based, though.

The first Shiren the Wanderer game is actually the second Mystery Dungeon game, made by Chunsoft because they wanted a game free from licensing issues and established characters and worlds. It didn't release in North America until 2008, 13 years after its original date, and hasn't been seen since.

I mean the CGI render boxart of the Super Famicom original isn’t exactly a looker either haha But the game itself is really beautiful 16bit pixelart, so it’s fine 😅 It’s really good despite being such an early entry, I really recommend it!

360 cards in total, randomized to 15 cards per pack. The slots for each pack are: 2 rare/mythic, 1 full art, 4 uncommon, 7 commons & 1 land. I made sure the color pie is balanced and all possible deck strategies of the set are viably represented. ✨

I‘ve absolutely loved the Final Fantasy MTG set during its prerelease event, so I‘ve decided to build a set cube to play Draft and Sealed in the future without buying booster packs. Thrilled to finally have it done!

If you enjoyed this one, I really recommend to try Rival Megagun. It lacks the cuteness of TSP, but feels less like a puzzle game, in a very good way.

Me too, but this is the third time I had to do this transfer already. It’s definitely not safe to ship them in bubble mailers without additional stabilization. Some cardboard folded around the cartridge within the envelope is usually enough though.
