Oh and one more thing, there was a game called Fantasy Masters Arena - that was crowdfunded (thanks Google Translate), but seems like it didn't have a long lifespan.

There is also "the same game" or Fantasy Master-like called DestinyMaiden/DestinyMaiden 2 that is available on smartphones in Korea. Another spin on the OG formula.

Back to Fantasy Masters - of course the Korean community is keeping the game alive in some form. There is a so-called FAN-MADE Masters website that is a modern re-implementation of the original, it seems to have a lot of active players. Even the ongoing tournaments!

Similarly, the game CYBER ONE was an online TCG that used a combination of both physical and digital.

Naturally, my research led me to Japan and the arcade game Avalon no Kagi (The Key of Avalon) released by Sega. The game was played using physical cards placed on an arcade cabinet (similar to Data Carddass), and it supported multiple players. Later, it saw the Windows release (2010)

The latest entry into the Fantasy Masters series was Fantasy Masters 2, which was released for smartphones. I can't find any info about the game past 2012 (which I guess was the last year for the whole series and the company behind it)

The game was later licensed to the Japanese and changed the name to "Schmidt Diva"

There is very little information about the game on the modern internet, but the company behind the game (Zeonix) also presented a spin-off called Fantasy Masters Tactics in 2006 using the Culdacept TCG formula.

As my digging for TCG gems of the East continues. The rabbit hole led me to a Korean online digital TCG game, called Fantasy Masters, that ran from 2003-2008/9??? Which had an international release but was very popular in Korea with more than 1 million players and around 6k different cards!

Today, a friend told me he is moving to Thailand in a few months, and me being me, I searched for Thailand TCG on the Internet. The first thing that came as a search result is a game called Summoner Master. There is not much info about it, but it seems like it was popular in Thailand since year 2000
