About This Game

Get a Job. Open Packs.

You've always dreamed about ditching everything and spending all your day opening and trading cards.

Welcome to Cardstock City.

You're a card person in a town obsessed with IRL TCG, where every paycheck somehow becomes another booster pack. Rip packs, build your collection, trade with the locals, and battle in tournaments. Work whatever odd jobs it takes to keep the habit funded and maybe one day... open a card shop of your own.

You start with an empty binder, a part-time job, and just enough money for one booster.

Best collector in town. Smartest dealer. World Champion.

Every one of them started with one pack.

Build Your Collection

Every booster is a gamble.

Maybe it's another duplicate.

Maybe it's the missing card for your set.

Maybe it's the alt full-art you've been chasing for multiple in-game months that is worth more than everything else you opened EVER.

Complete sets, hunt full-arts, chase legendary pulls, and make the collector's hardest decision: keep the treasure, or sell it to fund the next rip.

Earn. Spend. Repeat.

Someone has to keep this city running.

Take on jobs all over town deliver mail, flip burgers, stock shelves at the very shop that's bankrupting you... each with its own minigame and a different paycheck.

Work hard.

Get paid.

Immediately spend everything on sealed product.

No judgment. We'd do the same.

Become the Shop Everyone Visits

Tired of handing the local shop your whole paycheck?

Buy your own building and get on the other side of the counter. Stock the shelves, order inventory, set prices, and serve customers who definitely just spent their rent money.

Run it well, and your tiny neighborhood store could become the most famous card shop in Cardstock City.

Build a Championship Deck

Collecting is only half the hobby.

Turn your best pulls into a real deck, you build it and battle your way up — from folding tables at the community center, through regional events, and finally to the World Championship.

Can you prove you're more than just a lucky collector?

Explore Cardstock City

This isn't a menu with a card shop attached. It's a whole town.

Walk downtown between shifts and get to know the locals. Some want to trade. Some want to battle. One of them will lowball you every single time and never apologize.

Search the city for collectibles, follow the changing card market, and head home to a place decorated with the pulls you're proudest of.

There's no rush here.

There will always be another pack waiting to be opened.
