Disney Lorcana is a popular trading card game (TCG) launched by Ravensburger in 2023, featuring Disney characters in a magical, strategic duel.

Players, acting as "Illumineers" use decks of 60 cards to summon "glimmers" (character versions) and sing songs and play items to be the first to collect 20 lore points.  

​

The game is praised for being accessible to newcomers while offering strategic depth for experienced players, featuring regular set releases that introduce new mechanics and characters.
