Wonders of the First Collectible Card Game: 2-Player Starter

I have been playing this game frequently with my two sons and a small group as it first came out in March of this year. The game play is very smooth. It feels like chess with a flavor of Magic the Gathering. The game is played on a board that contains 7 realms. There are stones in each Realm. You win by controlling more stones than your opponent at the end of Round 7. You play cards from your hand that can help you take the stones in each realm and manipulate the board to your favor. There is so much strategy in the game and a ton of creativity as you expand the game with additional cards and your own 50 card deck builds. I also love the Art! In addition, the game is supported by a great management team that is committed to a sustainable product which includes principles that favor both collectability and game play. I highly recommend you get into this game now while supplies last!

Very fun collectable TCG game. Game play allows for cool strategy combos, while being simple enough to play with my kids. I like how they have rarer versions that are numbered which adds to the collectability, but has base versions for game play. Artwork on these shinny ones is insane!

I've played the game a few times so far and it's fun! It is easy enough to pick up for the average person and doesn't take long to learn at all. Plus there's the collectibility of the cards as well. And the art is really cool to look at too. I couldn't care less it's AI or AI assisted or whatever it is. Opening the packs and playing the game still gives me the enjoyment of opening a pack of baseball cards or playing any other TCG

My wife and I finally got to play this game a couple of weeks ago. It's a lot of fun. The game is played in seven stages (rounds), each opening up a new realm (where a stone is available), and the game has lots of back-and-forth interaction. Each time we've played, we weren't sure who was going to win until the final round, even if it looked like one player was definitely in the lead. I think it's one of the best two-player games I've ever played. My wife fell in love with some of the art, and it probably helped that she beat me the first time we played. :-) We are looking forward to modifying her decks with some of the cards in the booster packs, and are looking forward to other opportunities to personalize those decks down the road.

I have a lot of fun with the decks in this 2 player starter. The red solfera deck plays like a beat down and the blue thalwind deck plays seeking cards from your deck and when you hit a big card it is exciting. This also comes with two booster packs which is a huge bonus!

I have followed this game from the beginning. Brillant game and art! Ai is used with all MTG's in todays world. It is a tool in the artists tool box. Brian Tinsman the creator of many MTG games had created a truly wonderful game with absolutely NO reprints! This game is going to put MTG on notice!! Brian, Jeff and the team have done it!

This is a really fun game, my wife and I have enjoyed playing the 2 player starter decks. The two decks match different play styles (one is more of a power deck, the other is more a strategy one). NOTE: Pay attention to the wording of negative reviews, these are people who clearly have a bias against the game and came here just to leave a negative review. Any product bringing innovations will have people unhappy about change.

I picked up Wonders of the First TCG out of curiosity and it absolutely blew me away. The artwork is breathtaking, easily some of the best I’ve seen in any trading card game. Each card feels like a piece of a much bigger world, and the lore adds so much depth to the experience. Gameplay is smooth and surprisingly strategic. It's easy to learn but has a lot of depth for those who enjoy more competitive play. I also really appreciate the quality of the cards themselves—durable, glossy, and premium feel. This game is a perfect blend of storytelling, art, and tactics. Whether you're a longtime TCG collector or just getting into the genre, Wonders of the First is a fantastic addition to any collection. Highly recommended!

The cards are really nice quality, especially some of the "foil" cards in the two bonus packs. The game itself is simple enough to learn, but also allows room for plenty of strategy. Excited to learn and build more!

New CCG's get released all the time, but they're basically all the same. This game is unlike anything you've ever played. Plays fast and super-strategic. I can't get enough of it. You fight for control of 7 different stones playing creatures, spells, items, and lands. Each realm (where the stone is) opens up over 7 rounds. At the end of the 7th round the game ends and the player who controls the most stones is the winner. The game theme is fantasy/sci-fi crossover and character lore is slowly being released. No bulk lands/energy cards needed in your deck. Every card you place in your 50-card deck will play a key role in game play.

A great and cheap entry point into the game. Beautiful art and foiling layering. They look awesome! A great community in it as well. But there is a small group that hates on it simply because they used AI assistance to create the art. However, real digital artists created the finished products. The gameplay is fun and challenging and there’s so much collectibility in it. Don’t let the negative Nancy’s halt you trying it out. Next set comes out later in October.

This is a brand-new game that just came out. The gameplay is interesting, and there are different ways to win. I definitely like the artwork and design of the cards. The reviews bashing this game because of the use of AI are short-sighted, to say the least.

As a long time MTG player, l was very impressed with the fun and unique gameplay! Easy to pick-up and play for anyone new to the genre. Gameplay can be very strategic and in-depth. The card art is stunning and I look forward to collecting and playing this game more. A must have!

The gameplay is bland and so clunky. This is an obvious cash grab trying to cash in on TCG card investors. All of the art is AI generated as well. Anyone who has played the pre-release will tell you its a mess.

This game is a complete mess. The gameplay is clunky and outdated, customization has very little meaning, and the entire game looks and feels like it was created by chat GPT. All of the art in this is AI generated, the creators do not hide this fact, nor do they hide their use of AI in writing. The creators also used to make crypto scams. This is a terrible product and should be avoided at all costs. All of the reviews thus far have been made my their own team members and is against target's review guidelines TOS.

Thought this was a rock bottom garbage game when I tried. I played the two starter decks which felt extremely unpleasant. To be fair, we didn't have this retail edition that comes with booster packs, but I can't imagine wanting to collect this game. The art is poorly edited AI slop, so I think it will also long-term have no value to collectors.

The 2 Player Starter decks are a great introduction to Wonders of the First. These are also nice because you get 2 booster packs. The foils look so good in this set.

We have other card games like this one but this is definitely the most fun to play. Kids love battling over the stones and customizing the decks!! Highly recommend!!!

Just an absolutely fun game to not only play but also collect

This game is what MTG should be, no reprints, no power creep, and designed by Tinsman. The starter box gives you 2 decks and the basic items you need to play plus 2 packs of boosters.
