Understanding Your Cards

Every card holds a little story. Let’s learn how to read yours!

Every Karuta card has unique information that helps you identify, inspect, and manage it. Learning how to read these details makes navigating your collection much easier.

✦

01 Viewing Your Cards

Every card you collect is stored in your collection.

▸ Opening your collection:

FULL COMMANDk!collection
SHORT COMMANDkc

▸ Viewing an individual card:

FULL COMMANDk!view <card code>
SHORT COMMANDkv <card code>

↓ Scroll down to see the Maomao kv example.

Example: kv abc123

Replace abc123 with the code of the card you want to inspect.

Important

You can also view another player's card if you know its code. Viewing a card does not give you ownership of it.

✦

02 Understanding Card Codes

Every Karuta card has a unique code that identifies that specific copy.

Example: abc123

Card codes are used for various actions, including:

  • Viewing individual cards.
  • Trading or giving cards.
  • Applying customization.
  • Managing your collection.
Important

A card code is different from its print number. The code identifies the individual card, while the print number identifies its position within a character's edition.

✦

03 Reading Card Information

When you view a card, Karuta displays several details that help you understand what you're looking at.

✦ CARD DETAILS · REAL EXAMPLE

04 Viewing Additional Card Information

Karuta also provides a command for inspecting more detailed information about individual cards.

▸ Opening card information:

FULL COMMANDk!cardinformation <card code>
SHORT COMMANDkci <card code>

Example: kci abc123

Depending on the card, this can reveal additional information about its history, customization, and other recorded attributes.
