"Disney Lorcana: A Sneak Peek into the Gameplay and Rules"

Rules for Disney Lorcana, a new trading card game from Ravensburger, have leaked, revealing that players race to gather 20 lore by using cards to create a pool of ink, which is used to summon creatures and cast spells. Characters can be sent on quests to generate lore, but can also be challenged by other players, taking damage in the exchange until their willpower value is exceeded and they are banished. The leak is slim, with many finer points of gameplay still unclear, but more information is expected in the lead-up to the game's launch at Gen Con this summer.
