Tabletop card games are enjoying unprecedented popularity, while few have found success in the digital space. But that could change with the Kickstarter launch of an upcoming CCG called Chrono on May 28th. With lofty goals like a Limited format and “a competitive system like the golden days of MTG GPs/PTs,” according to organized game developer Jason Fleurant, the Chrono team of developers is ready to challenge the dominant digital card games in the CCG space.

ChronoCCG is still in its early stages, but development on the free-to-play CCG has been impressive so far. It can currently only be played on Tabletop Simulator, but will be available on PC and mobile when it officially launches.

Like LoR, the team has created an advanced mana system for casting spells and permanents, while incorporating a Wildcard system into card booster packs so players can get the cards they want. Evolving cards, or double-sided cards in the TCG space, are also integral to Chrono. And like MTG, there are elements of the Commander format for deckbuilding, a spell deck called the Chain, a Limited format for Draft and Sealed play, and Instant tap abilities on cards.
