'Cards' play a secondary role in TCG Card Shop Simulator game, allowing players to collect or sell the cards they obtain from packs.

Overview

To obtain cards, players need to open a single card pack purchased through Stock Order. There are currently three card collections (Tetramon, Destiny, and Ghost). The first two collections have four buyable rarities:

Basic (blue packs, marked as "Common" in the album)
Rare (yellow/gold packs, marked as "Rare" in the album)
Epic (purple/pink packs)
Legendary (red packs)

Note that the Ghost collection is not available as a standalone pack. Instead, there is a rare chance of finding a Ghost card within any pack from the Tetramon or Destiny collections.

Edition Types

Beyond the standard rarity packs, cards are also divided by individual edition and whether they are foil or non-foil. The following editions exist:

Normal: No special text or coloration, these are the most common edition type.
1st Edition: Displays "1st Edition" under the image with a white border.
Silver Edition: Labeled as "Silver Edition" with a silver border.
Gold Edition: Marked as "Gold Edition" with a gold border.
EX: Displays "EX" under the image with a gold/yellow border.
Full Art: The entire card features character art, rather than just a small box in the top half.
Ghost: Appears mostly in black or white with minimal coloration, and is considered the highest value card type in the game, often valued around 10,000.

Both foil and non-foil versions are available for each of these editions. Foil cards have an additional reflective sheen, including Ghost cards, and obtaining a foil Ghost card unlocks an in-game achievement.

Not counting Ghost cards, each character card within a given rarity (e.g., "Common") has 12 different versions to collect.

Probability of Each Card Rarity

Full Art: 1 in 400 (0.25%)
EX: 1 in 100 (1%)
Gold: 1 in 25 (4%)
Silver: 1 in 12.5 (8%)
First Edition: 1 in 5 (20%)
Any Foil: 1 in 20 (5%)

(Each rarity type has a separate chance of being a foil. For example, a Full Art Foil card requires both a 1 in 400 chance to get a Full Art and a 1 in 20 chance for it to be a foil, equating to a 1 in 8,000 or 0.0125% chance.)

Ghost Cards

Example of black non-foil and white foil Ghost cards

There are 20 character cards with Ghost variants, creating 80 unique Ghost cards in total. Each Ghost card has the following types:

Two white Ghost cards (foil and non-foil)
Two black Ghost cards (foil and non-foil)

Ghost cards always appear as the 7th card in a pack. The probability of obtaining a Ghost Pack depends on the type of pack:

Tetramon Pack: 1 in 1,000 (0.1%) chance for a Ghost Pack
Destiny Pack: 1 in 500 (0.2%) chance for a Ghost Pack

The rarity of the pack (e.g., Basic, Rare, Epic, or Legendary) does not affect the chance of it being a Ghost Pack.

Foil Ghost cards are the rarest and most valuable in the game. Obtaining a Foil Ghost card unlocks the "Lucky Bastard" achievement.

Tetramon Pack Foil Ghost: 1 in 20,000 (0.005%) chance
Destiny Pack Foil Ghost: 1 in 10,000 (0.01%) chance

Collecting

Currently, there are 1,320 cards across the two main collections (Tetramon and Destiny) and 80 Ghost cards. In the Tetramon and Destiny sets, each edition (for both non-foil and foil) has separate numbers, meaning each character card, like Nocti, has 12 different versions.

In total, there are 110 unique character cards, each with 12 variant cards to collect.

Currently, Tetramon and Destiny collections are nearly identical in structure: aside from pack type and background differences, the character art, numbers, and stats are the same across both collections. Cards of the same rarity pack type will share similar characteristics across collections.

The following table shows the average distribution of different card rarities out of 10,000 cards, with approximate percentages:

Card Rarity	Number of Cards out of 10k	Percentage
Full Art	23.75	0.24%
Full Art Foil	1.25	0.01%
EX	94.76	0.95%
EX Foil	4.99	0.05%
Gold	375.26	3.75%
Gold Foil	19.75	0.20%
Silver	720.50	7.21%
Silver Foil	37.92	0.38%
First Edition	1,657.14	16.57%
First Edition Foil	87.22	0.87%
Base	6,628.59	66.29%
Base Foil	348.87	3.48%

-==Edition types==
-On top of the rarity packs, cards are further divided based on their individual edition and if foil or non-foil. The following editions exist:
-*Normal: No special text or coloration, these are the most common.
-*1st Edition: says "1st Edition" under the image and has a white border.
-*Silver Edition: say "Silver Edition" under the image and has a silver border.
-*Gold Edition: says "Gold Edition" under the image and has a gold border.
-*EX: says "EX" under the image and has a gold/yellow border.
-*Full Art: As the name implies, the whole card is of the character in question, rather than just a small box in the top half of the card.
-*Ghost: Will look like a mostly black or white card with little coloration and are considered the highest value cards in game (upwards of around 10k).
+=== Edition Types ===
-Both non-foil and foil can be any of the above, though foil will have an additional foil sheen on the card, including the ghost card (which has an additional [[achievement]] for obtaining one in game).
+Beyond the standard rarity packs, cards are also divided by individual edition and whether they are foil or non-foil. The following editions exist:
+* '''Normal''': No special text or coloration, these are the most common edition type.
-Not counting Ghost cards, this means each particular character card for a given rarity (such as "Common") has 12 different versions to collect.
+* '''1st Edition''': Displays "1st Edition" under the image with a white border.
+* '''Silver Edition''': Labeled as "Silver Edition" with a silver border.
+* '''Gold Edition''': Marked as "Gold Edition" with a gold border.

+Both foil and non-foil versions are available for each of these editions. Foil cards have an additional reflective sheen, including Ghost cards, and obtaining a foil Ghost card unlocks an in-game achievement.
-'''Probability of Each Card Rarity'''
+Not counting Ghost cards, each character card within a given rarity (e.g., "Common") has 12 different versions to collect.
-* Full Art: 1/400 (0.25%)
-* EX: 1/100 (1%)
-* Gold: 1/25 (4%)
-* Silver: 1/12.5 (8%)
-* First Edition: 1/5 (20%)
-* Any Foil: 1/20 (5%)
+=== Probability of Each Card Rarity ===
-''(For each rarity, getting a foil is a 1/20 on top of it. For example, a Full Art Foil is a 1/400 to get a Full Art and then a 1/20 for that Full Art to be a Foil, giving a 1/8,000 or 0.0125% chance)''
-=== '''Ghost Cards''' ===
+* '''Full Art''': 1 in 400 (0.25%)
+* '''EX''': 1 in 100 (1%)
-[[File:Tcg ghost card examples.jpg|thumb|300px|Example of black non-foil and white foil ghost cards]]
+* '''Gold''': 1 in 25 (4%)
-For Ghost cards, there are 20 character cards that have 4 different Ghost variants, making for 80 unique ghost cards. Each Ghost card has the following:
+* '''Silver''': 1 in 12.5 (8%)
+* '''First Edition''': 1 in 5 (20%)
+* '''Any Foil''': 1 in 20 (5%)
+'''(Each rarity type has a separate chance of being a foil. For example, a Full Art Foil card requires both a 1 in 400 chance to get a Full Art and a 1 in 20 chance for it to be a foil, equating to a 1 in 8,000 or 0.0125% chance.)'''
-* Two white ghost cards (foil and non-foil)
-* Two black ghost cards (foil and non-foil)
-A ghost card will '''always''' be the 7th card of a pack. The chances of getting a ghost card varies depending on which type of pack expansion type you are opening:
+=== Ghost Cards ===
-*If you're opening a ''Tetramon'' pack, it's a 1/1,000 chance (0.1%) for it to be a ''Ghost Pack.''
+[[File:Tcg ghost card examples.jpg|thumb|300px|Example of black non-foil and white foil Ghost cards]]
-*If you're opening a ''Destiny'' pack, it's a 1/500 chance (0.2%) for it to be a ''Ghost Pack''.  ''The rarity of the pack (i,e Basic, Rare, Epic, or Legendary) has no effect on the chances of the pack being a Ghost Pack.''
+There are 20 character cards with Ghost variants, creating 80 unique Ghost cards in total. Each Ghost card has the following types:
+* Two white Ghost cards (foil and non-foil)
-Foil variants of Ghost cards are the rarest and most valuable cards available in the game. Obtaining a Foil Ghost Card will unlock the achievement titled "Lucky Bastard"
+* Two black Ghost cards (foil and non-foil)
+Ghost cards always appear as the 7th card in a pack. The probability of obtaining a Ghost Pack depends on the type of pack:
-*If you're opening a ''Tetramon'' pack, it's a ''1/20,000 (0.005%) chance'' for it to be a ''Ghost Foil Pack.''
-*If you're opening a ''Destiny'' pack, it's a ''1/10,000 (0.01%) chance'' for it to be a ''Ghost Foil Pack''.
+* '''Tetramon Pack''': 1 in 1,000 (0.1%) chance for a Ghost Pack
-== '''Collecting''' ==
+* '''Destiny Pack''': 1 in 500 (0.2%) chance for a Ghost Pack
-There are currently 1,320 cards for the two main collections (Tetramon and Destiny) and 80 Ghost cards. Note that for the Tetramon and Destiny sets, each edition, for both non-foil and foil, have separate numbers, so the same character card (for example, [[Nocti]]) will have 12 different numbers to cover all variants. This means there are 110 total unique character cards with 12 different cards for each.
+'''The rarity of the pack (e.g., Basic, Rare, Epic, or Legendary) does not affect the chance of it being a Ghost Pack.'''
-Currently both the Tetramon and Destiny collections are nearly identical: other than being in different packs with different card backgrounds, everything else (character art, numbers, and stats) remain the same. As such, the list here doesn't note specific expansions as a card in question can be found in its related rarity pack for each expansion.
+Foil Ghost cards are the rarest and most valuable in the game. Obtaining a Foil Ghost card unlocks the "Lucky Bastard" achievement.
-The following table shows roughly how many different card rarities you'll get '''on average out of 10,000''' cards and their respective percentage (both rounded to 2 decimal places):
