Ravensburger delivered on another big Disney Lorcana release at the end of 2024. This new release, Azurite Sea, is similar in scope to the previous Shimmering Skies. Cards in this set bring Big Hero 6 and Rescue Rangers, among others, to the ever growing roster for the Disney Lorcana trading card game.
What Is Disney Lorcana?
Disney Lorcana is a trading card game for 2–6 players, ages 8 and up, and takes about 20–30 minutes to play. While there are rules for multiplayer games, Disney Lorcana will likely most often be played with just 2 players, similar to other trading card games. As with most TCGs (trading card games), each player will need a deck of at least 60 cards to play. A pre-made starter deck for a single player retails for $16.99, while booster packs containing 12 random cards are $5.99. Disney Lorcana is sold directly from Ravensburger, from the Ravensburger store on Amazon, and at many local game stores and big box retailers.
Disney Lorcana TCG: Azurite Sea Products
As with Shimmering Skies, Ravensburger sent me several of the Azurite Sea releases to take a look at. With this release, rather than having a card portfolio available individually, they’ve gone with a collector’s gift set.
Stitch Collector’s Gift Set
In addition to a very nice card portfolio, the collector’s gift set also contains 4 Azurite Sea booster packs, and a Stitch promo card.
I’m using the portfolio to hold and organize all of my Azurite Sea cards from the booster packs. The Stitch Collector’s Gift Set retails for $49.97, and is available on Amazon or from your local games store.
Azurite Sea Illumineer’s Trove
The Azurite Sea Illumineer’s Trove is fundamentally the same as the one released for Shimmering Skies, but with Azurite Sea artwork and content. It comes with 8 Azurite Sea booster packs, a lore counter, 6 card dividers, and 6 damage counter dice.
The Azurite Sea Illumineer’s Trove retails for $49.99, and is available on Amazon or at your local games store. It’s great for holding your decks, and gives you some nice gameplay upgrades with the damage dice and lore counter.
Disney Lorcana TCG: Azurite Sea Single Player Decks
Decks in Disney Lorcana may be composed of no more than two colors. As with all of the Disney Lorcana releases, these preconstructed decks are each made up of two different colors of cards. Each box contains 1 starter deck of 60 cards (including 2 foil cards), 11 tokens, 1 Rules sheet, and 1 booster pack of 12 randomized cards.
The single player decks retail for $16.99 each and are available from the Ravensburger store on Amazon or at your local games store. They are ready to play right out of the box.
Booster Packs
Ravensburger didn’t send me any individual booster packs. However, each of the Single Player Decks includes a single booster pack, the Illumineer’s Trove comes with 8, and the Stitch Collector’s Gift Set has 4. Each booster pack contains 12 randomized cards. Single booster packs retail for $5.99, and can be purchased on Amazon or at your local games store.
If you read my last Lorcana article, you’d know that I’ve had very poor luck acquiring any “Enchanted” rarity cards. I’m sad to say that my losing streak is unbroken. I opened 18 Azurite Sea booster packs of 12 cards each, for a total of 216 cards. Out of those, I got 4 Legendary, 11 Super Rare, and 19 Rare. The remaining cards were all commons and uncommons.
Disney Lorcana TCG: Azurite Sea
Despite my total inability to luck into an Enchanted card, I still love Disney Lorcana. The game is very easy to pick up, and if you’re a Disney fan, all of the beautiful original card artwork will make you very happy. Ravensburger continues to plumb the Disney film and television catalogue, bringing forth both popular characters and some pretty deep cuts. This is a trading card game where you can be perfectly happy playing the preconstructed decks, or you can try to create your own decks, mixing and matching cards just as in any other TCG.
For those that like to go the collectibles route, each booster pack contains an additional, randomly selected art puzzle card. If you collect all 9 unique cards, you’ll put them together to form an original piece of Azurite Sea artwork featuring Stitch from Lilo and Stitch, and Jim Hawkins from Treasure Planet.
Much as with Shimmering Skies, the Disney Lorcana release of Azurite Sea is another solid set of products that’s great both for beginning players and those already invested in the game. Now, if I could just luck into some of those Enchanted cards…
