Game Mastery

Game Mastery isn't so much a card game as it is a role playing game resource. Playing cards are the perfect size to use as aids for other games. RPGs are all about story-telling and treasures. Now with Game Mastery item cards, those words can be transformed into pictures, adding to the fun of any adventure.

Game Mastery is a series of item cards that have many themes like adventure gear that features many mundane but necessities for any role player. These cards have nice artwork of items like rations, lamp oil, and waterskin.

Each card has a picture of the item and the description of the item on the back of the card. There is even a small square for players to keep track of what they know about an item.

Game Mastery cards help game masters of any role playing game to have a nice resource to help players keep track of their items. A player finds a ring in the game and learns it's magical. Usually he would write down this information on his character sheet or possibly another sheet of paper. It doesn't take long for this to become a big confusing mess especially as he finds more items and begins to sell his items in nearby towns. There's a lot of erasing of items that can happen on a character sheet, making it that much more challenging to figure out exactly which items he has and what he knows about his possessed items.

Using item cards is great for players and game masters. Players have an easy way to track their possessions and make notes about each one. All of their information about the item can be recorded in one place, making is easier to remember which ring was magical or has an appraised value. Game masters benefit from using item cards because it adds to their game. Players can actually see their finds and game masters won't have to repeat what the treasure is since it is in the cards.

While Game Mastery is not a standalone card game, the item cards can be a great resource for role players to have. The item cards can help you keep track of your possessions. Know at a glance when you are about to run out of rations or easily keep track of how many charges on a wand are left. For those who are new to role playing, keeping up with your possessions can become a game in itself. Having a simple way to organize your items can help you to concentrate on the game and not your adventuring gear.
