What is Monster Rancher Battle Card?
- Originally a Japanese physical card game that was never released in the west (Also in Japan it is referred to as Monster Farm, while English released games are Monster Rancher).
- You choose 3 monsters to play with, along with monster-specific cards, as well as "Any" monster cards, or "Breeder" cards. (YOU are the breeder)
- Win by KOing the opponent's 3 monsters first, or lose by deck attrition. (Your Draw pile is also your resource for spending your resource to attack or defend).
- The English Video Game versions had poor translations, but made it to GameBoy Color, and PlayStation1.
- The GBC version only had the first expansion, while the PS1 version had 3 expansions.
- The Physical cards go up to a 4th expansion before they were discontinued.
- The Physical and video game versions of MRBC play with the exact same rules so it's an easy transition
This might lead one to ask: What is Monster Rancher?
- Started as a fantasy Pet raising and breeding simulation, like Tamagochi on steroids. It's also very roguelike, before that was specifically a genre.
- The original gimmick in Monster Rancher was the ability to swap out the game and insert CDs in the PlayStation and a monster is generated from the CDs meta data
- The monsters were able to be cross-bred as well, so in addition to being able to pass down traits, attacks etc. from parents, they can have hybridized looks too.
