Arcana Strikes #BestOfSaturn

Arcana Strikes is a 1997 Japan-only hybrid RPG / card battling game. You are drawn into an ethereal world where people’s dreams give power to cards… but people have stopped dreaming, and Arcana is in danger of vanishing. There are RPG elements such as an overworld to explore and people to talk to, and card battles are very visual – think JRPG visuals but with cards as the battle gimmick. Excellent visual effects and a memorable, refined soundtrack makes this Takara game worthy of a look!
