Shin Megami Tensei Trading Card: Card Summoner is a card-based game released for the Game Boy Color in 2000. This GBC card game combines strategic deck-building with turn-based battles, set in the distinctive universe of the Shin Megami Tensei series. Players collect and summon various demon cards to fight opponents, aiming to reduce their life points to zero.
The main objective is to construct a powerful deck of demon cards and use tactical summoning to defeat rival card masters. The gameplay pace is methodical, emphasizing careful planning over fast reflexes. Players must manage resources such as magic points to summon creatures and deploy spells effectively during duels.
A unique mechanic in this karate fighting game-style card title is the integration of demon fusion and summoning, allowing players to combine cards for stronger entities. This system adds depth beyond typical card battles. The game’s unusual idea lies in merging traditional RPG elements with card strategy on a handheld platform, making it stand out among 1999 and 2000 Game Boy Color games.
