At long last… They’re here.
If you’ve followed this blog from the very start, you’d know about Cryptid Quest Cards. But just incase you don’t, Cryptid Quest are trading cards of the world’s most elusive creatures; cryptids. These colorful cards have been my passion project for over five years. I dreamed of one day being about to share them with the world, not just in digital form, but as real, physical cards.
As you can see, they are very different from the ones you’ve seen pop up on your feed. They are structured better, designed better, and have updated art. In addition to that, they also contain more information about the cryptid. My goal isn’t to rival Magic the Gathering or any other battle cards, but to create a fun way to learn about cryptozoology.
As mentioned above, all original 24 cards have been updated. My plan is to update all 96 Cryptid Quest cards in this style as I go down the list.
I hope I caught your attention. Now what about possessing one of these stacks for your own enjoyment? Don’t worry, there’s no Kickstarter this time. The cards have been printed and are ready to be shipped. All you need to do is pay for them. I tried to make them as cheap as possible for your convenience, however, printed these myself, as well as the boxes, were pretty expensive. Thankfully, I rounded it out to a reasonable price.
For all 24 cards and the Cryptid Quest box it comes in, you can get one of these stacks for only $20.00. Where do you go to get it? Why, at the Cryptid Quest Shop on Etsy, that’s where.

I am excited to see how many of you will take part in this. This has been my personal experiment. Now, just so I don’t worry any of you, this doesn’t effect the Cryptid of the Day, nor does it effect the creation of new cards (digitally, that is). But, if this does prove to be a success, I will get started on the second phase. Hopefully I’ll be able to get that done by June. But that’s only if I sell out of the cards I have printed.
Though I started uploading the cards to the internet five years ago, the idea came to me when I was in eighth grade. It took me nearly 10 years to finally learn how to spell Dover. Thank you for being part of this experiment. Keep on searching, cryptid hunters.
