Dart Flipcards To Produce Sailor Moon Collectible Card Game

Dart Flipcards, Inc., in association with Guardians Of Order, Inc., announced today that it will release the Sailor Moon Collectible Card Game in May 2000.

The Sailor Moon Collectible Card Game (SM-CCG) is based on the Japanese animated television series that follows the exploits of five young school girls, who magically transform into the powerful Sailor Scouts. As the Sailor Scouts grow and progress through the series, they protect Tokyo and the Earth from nasty aliens and evil beings from the Negaverse. Since its North American television debut in 1995, Sailor Moon has reached popularity among both male and female viewers of all ages.

"We are astounded by the astronomical response to this project", said Dart Flipcards President, Dino Frisella. "Distributors, retailers, and playtesters have shown a level of interest in the game that far surpassed our expectations. We are very excited about our first foray into the adventure gaming industry, and believe that our involvement as a new game publishing company will have a positive impact on the entire game distribution chain, from distributors to retailers to consumers. We will be supporting the hobby market by releasing the limited Premiere Edition though the game distribution channels before the Unlimited Edition is released through the mass market. Our partnership with Guardians Of Order, a company with a reputation for their detailed knowledge and understanding of the Sailor Moon series, ensures that we have the best game design possible."

The SM-CCG is an easy-to-learn multi-player card game that girls and boys of all ages can trade and collect. The May release is comprised of 160 unique game cards, including 10 randomly-inserted foil chase cards. Every Sailor Scout, Negaverse villain and monster from the smash hit TV series is featured in this set, making it the perfect game for Sailor Moon fans, card collectors, and game players alike. The card game design is based on Guardians Of Order’s critically acclaimed Tri-Stat System game mechanic, which was made popular by their Sailor Moon Role-Playing Game and Resource Book. The Premiere Edition, which will only be available through the hobby/game markets and specialty channels, will be packaged in 6 different 60 card Character Decks, a 60-card 2-player Starter Deck, and 11-card Booster Packs. Shortly thereafter, an Unlimited Edition will also be available widely through the mass market.

Mark C. MacKinnon, President of Guardians Of Order, commented, "This is the project that we have wanted to undertake for years, and thus we are very pleased to have the opportunity to work with a trading card company as outstanding as Dart. We have had tremendous success with our Sailor Moon role-playing game line, and knew that the Tri-Stat System was an excellent base upon which to build the CCG game mechanics. Fans of our products will immediately recognize that nearly every numerical value printed on the cards is derived directly from the Sailor Moon RPG, specifically the core rule book and the Complete Book of Yoma, Volume 1. We believe that Sailor Moon fans will appreciate the intuitive approach to game design that we used, and the attention to detail that the cards provide. Similarly, avid card gamers will recognize the wide variety of deck design and card play strategies that are inherent to the game. This is one of our best creations to date, in terms of both playability and graphic design. The CCG is designed by Sailor Moon fans, for Sailor Moon fans."
