Myths and Legends (2003)

The top-selling collectible card game from Chile for several years (I know, it sounds dubious), now released in English. An interesting combination of "mana"-style (in this case, "mana" = "gold") creature summoning, and Star Wars CCG deck depletion to win. Each player has a certain amount of "gold" cards that they may play one of, each round. Gold is then moved from the "reserve pile", where it is initially laid, to the "spent pile". Spent gold is then used to summon all variety of mythological "allies" (beasts, gods, etc.), or "totems" (support items that remain on the table, enhancing your combat or gold producing abilities). Gold can also be kept in the reserve pile to be used to power "talismans" (think instants and interrupts), or to utilize special abilities that your "allies" have. Combat is resolved by comparing the "power" value on each card, if the attacker is higher, the difference is discarded from your opponent’s deck. The first person to completely deplete their opponent's deck is the winner.
