One night, your camp is attacked.
You and your best friend Jowy escape, and the fate takes you into different directions, when you get involved in a war between several nations.
Unlike the main Suikoden games, Gensō Suikoden Card Stories is a card-based RPG.
Most of the game is spent playing a special card game with your opponents.
The complex card game is not unlike a strategy battle: you have three types of cards, some of which take you to a specific "mission" (you open the game with such cards), while others represent various characters with different strengths and weaknesses.
You can acquire cards in shops, get them from your opponents, and also look for them in randomly generated dungeons.
About Game Boy Advance
Nintendo's Game Boy Advance (2001) offered near-SNES-level graphics in a handheld and became a home for excellent ports as well as original titles across nearly every genre. GBA cartridges are generally durable and plentiful, making it an approachable platform for new collectors, though a few late-release RPGs and limited exclusives have become genuine chase items.
Gamevaro tracks Suikoden: Card Stories for Game Boy Advance with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Suikoden: Card Stories to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GBA release dates back to 2001.
