Towers in Time

Towers of Time is an out-of-print collectible card game by Thunder Castle Games and was released in April 1995.[1] The base set had 150 cards with 56-card starter decks and 8-card booster packs.[1] The game was chastised for having starter decks that contained no rules, and instead players would have to call a non-toll-free number to obtain the rules.[2] The rules were eventually printed in Scrye magazine issue #3.[2] An "icon explanation" card, however, was included in the starter decks, but did not explain all the icons found on the cards.[2] Thunder Castle Games announced at least four expansions for the game but none of them ever materialized: Greek, Zodiac, Amazon, and Norse.[2]
