Star Squadrons: Galactic Trading Card Game

Star Squadrons: Galactic Trading Card Game

About the Game

Star Squadrons: Galactic Trading Card Game is a fast, tactical sci-fi TCG that connects two worlds at once: digitally on PC and as a physical card game. Both versions share the same unique ruleset β€” no mana, hidden card placement, tactical zone control, and monthly rotating battlefields.

Choose your opening hand, outplay opponents through timing, bluffing and positioning, and fight across shifting strategic battlefields.

πŸš€ A Hybrid TCG Across Digital and Physical Play

Star Squadrons aims to become the first fully connected digital + physical TCG ecosystem:

  • Play digitally on Steam
    and earn physical rewards through digital performance.

  • Play physically at local events
    and later sync your local competitive success into the global online ranking.

Digital play builds skill, visibility, and rankings β€” physical play builds community, events, and progression.
Both sides reinforce each other and form one unified trading card game experience.

🧠 Pure Strategy β€” Without Resource Frustration

  • No mana

  • No resource system

  • No dead draws and minimal downtime

  • Hidden card placement = constant mindgames

  • Players choose their opening hand

  • Victory comes from tactical zone superiority, not lifepoints

🌌 Monthly Rotating Battlefields

Each month introduces a new battlefield with changing tactical zones that influence combat and strategy β€” keeping the meta fresh, competitive, and evolving.
