Flights of Fantasy

The set had 118 cards and was sold only in booster packs.^[2][3] The game is generally not considered the second CCG released after Magic: the Gathering because of its gimmicky nature. The game mechanics appear to be "grafted on" and merely an afterthought, and it lacks a uniform card back.^[2] All card back art was created by Ed Beard Jr.^[4] According to Beard, as a "first collector card/game" it began production in May 1992.^[5]

The card art was designed specifically to match a storyline, featuring "novel-like" card backs.^[6] The game claimed to feature "quick and fierce" battles based on the story, and could be played a variety of ways.^[6] According to Scrye magazine from 1995, the game was to be released mid-December of 1995 in boxes consisting of 36 booster packs with 10 cards.^[6]

Scrye noted that the gameplay element was a "very minor" part to what was essentially a "card art set" and appeared to be "grafted on" and was about to fun to play as "doing your taxes".^[2][4]
