You can find a bunch of old issues of InQuest magazine, which covered TCG's heavily in the 90s, floating around online, including a variety of X-Files articles
Gotta dig a bit bc they're not all on Archive-dot-org

I will try to find some, thanks for the tip.

There’s a lot of mediocre stuff to sift through.

fredserval.bsky.social•109 days ago

Honestly, I'm not sure I'll ever play it more than once.

No harm in curiosity

Well, Alex is coming to visit with a luggage full of On The Edge decks, and I'm a bit worried about where my curiosity might lead me.

One of the all-time great settings.

As a tcg it’s very first-generation.

The truth is out there… and I have a big box full of it.

fredserval.bsky.social•109 days ago

Is it worth it?

mendicantgamer.bsky.social•109 days ago

Sadly, no?

I haven’t played it in over a quarter century but I do recall that it was, like many other TCGs of that time, an incomplete game.

At its core, there is a game here that might have been great if it did not have the random collectible booster element.

Sad, but not surprising.

I was just talking about this yesterday. I loved the xfiles CCG.
