I’ve been doing some research on the Lycee card game and it’s really intrigued me. I like visual novels and have always been a sucker for a fun card game. I guess this is one of those things I always heard about but didn’t notice until now. Now that it has my attention, the game looks very, very cool.

Type-Moon, Key, Leaf and Nitroplus are among the most prominent of the featured properties. The big draw lies in the franchise mixing aspect that lets you combine your favorite characters from several visual novels into a 60 card deck. So in theory you could have Kanon/Tsukihime, Higurashi/ToHeart, Clannad/Utawarerumono/Jingai Makyo or whatever suits your taste.

The game itself looks to play like a combination of Magic: The Gathering, Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh. If someone that’s more familiar with the game mechanics is reading this, feel free to correct me because this is just my initial impression. I’ll probably buy a deck and some boosters in the near future… When I have some spare cash. Not like I can read the card text much less find someone to play against. Anyway, what are the best online Lycee retailers for someone living in the US?
