Tomb Raider Collectible Card Game
In 1999, Eidos teamed up Precedence Publishing to create a set of cards that were not only collectible but also playable. The first set released was called 'Premier', and later a further two sets were created: 'Slippery When Wet', which was focused on the ocean aspects of Tomb Raider, and 'Big Guns'.
The Premier Cards, numbered 201-209 include clues for a competition, which you can read more about here. To view all cards, follow these links to the individual sets: Premier | Slippery When Wet | Big Guns In 2001, the TR CCG series came to an end. Below is the official statement published on the Precedence website, declaring why it was ending: |
SOLD OUT |
This was not the end of Tomb Raider CCGs as there is a Japanese set. You can read what we have discovered HERE and official fansite Raider Daze has managed to put together a complete list of Mars-16 cards, which you can read HERE.
'The Treasure Vault', created by Sam Black, mahasamatman.com, and Penguin Flight Dynamics, was the first website to upload and list detailed information and imagery of the Precedence CCG. The website included a feature where you could sort the cards by number, alphabetical or by rarity and it even lists the rules and any updates in the rules. In fact, even the official Precedence TR CCG game endorsed the website as a go-to gallery.
If you wish to download the CCGs for yourself, Core-Design has the complete set, found here.
