Knowing which cards are the best can be hard with so many available. After all, you need to manage opening packs, selling them, keeping shelves stocked, and paying off bills while making a profit, so knowing what to look out for can be challenging. We’re here to help you with all that.

The best cards in TCG Card Shop Simulator

Best cards are pretty subjective in TCG Card Shop Simulator, but for this list, we are going to go over what we feel are the best ones, which also happen to be the most expensive. As your only goal in the right now is to make money while we wait for a future roadmap update that adds the ability to play with the cards properly, we have worked out the most expensive cards regardless of their rarity, which includes the following:

Card Name
Blazoar
Kyuenbi
Giganite
Mammotree
Kingstar
Fistronk
Royalama
Dracunix
Mgnoria
Hydroid
Dakon
Bogon
Hydron
Raizon
Lucadence
Jigajawr
Jacktern
GigatronX
Clawcifear

These cards are available in the Legendary Pack or the Destiny Legendary Pack, but it’s the latter where you will find the most money. Equally, when it comes to Ghost Rare cards, there are four different types, all with unique values. These include White Full Art, White Full Art Foil, Black Full Art, and the most expensive of them all— Black Full Art Foil.

To help you keep track of the cards you find, some folks over on Reddit made a handy checklist of every card available in-game, including what rarity they can appear as in each pack. Most of the cards from the Basic, Rare, and Epic packs aren’t worth considering, with everything in the Legendary packs, even if they can’t be Ghost Rare, still worth a few hundred or thousand dollars each.

Realistically, though, we decided that the best cards were in terms of the value of a card. However, for you, the best thing might be finding the highest rarity. In the future, fans might instead be after the best cards to use when you can actually play the game against NPCs and, hopefully, other players. So what really equates to the ‘best’ is down to you and your future plans with TCG Card Shop Simulator.
