Description
Eternium is a mythical card game where you can trade and battle. The aim is to 'dominate' - create the ultimate collection of cards that will let you win every time.
You create the dominating card collection by trading and battling. In a battle, both players may 'risk' a 4 or 5 star card and whoever wins keeps both.
There are three types of Cards: Monster, Combat and Special. You must always play a Monster Card - both Special and Combat cards can be used in addition to the Monster on each turn.
The game is popular with younger children because there is a vivid story and the monsters are found to be very imaginative and in some cases comparable to people they know in real life.

Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Card Destruction — you can destroy cards.
- Deck Building — You're trying to build your deck and get it to a point where when you're doing five cards, you're doing a lot more removing cards than you have to pick up cards.
- Drafting — you're going to have to try to draft certain cards to get that symbol so you can lift this off.
- Hand Discard manipulation — you can use a card to put it into the opponent's discard. It may cause and mess up their kind of rhythm of their things and and make things a lot tougher.
- Hand Management — You can you can go from your hand. Like for instance, if I wanted to play a card, well, I could play this one and get rid of this one right here.
- Set Collection — You're going to have to try to match that symbol to remove that symbol.
