About

Token Stack

Read full description

Stop carrying a box of token cards to every game. Token Stack is a token tracker for trading card game players. Every token ever printed — 898 distinct tokens across 3,131 printings and 244 sets — is in your pocket, ready to put into play from your phone. THE BOARD Search for a token and put it into play. Stack multiples into a single pile, tap and untap them, and track counters as the game moves. Put a +1/+1 counter on just one of three Soldiers and the pile splits, exactly as it would on the table. Power and toughness update live. Counters like +1/+0 and -0/-1 are handled properly, not just the symmetric ones, and a token pushed to zero toughness is flagged so you can clear it. TABLE MODE Lay your phone flat and it becomes the token. One card fills the screen at the largest size it can, with the quantity, counters and abilities readable from across the table. The screen stays awake, brightness goes to full, and the chrome hides with a tap so nothing sits on top of the art. Turn the card to face your opponent while the controls stay the right way up for you. YOUR LIBRARY Pin the tokens you make often and reach them in a tap. Or build a deck: pick the release you own — any of 193, including preconstructed decks — and it fills with every token that release shipped with. Where a token was printed with more than one art, choose the one you actually own. WORKS WITHOUT SIGNAL The whole token database is built into the app, so search works with no connection at all. Card art downloads once and is kept, and anything you pin or add to a deck is stored on the device — so your tokens work at a shop with bad wifi. NO ACCOUNT, NO TRACKING, NO ADS Nothing is collected, nothing is uploaded, and there is nothing to sign into. Your boards and decks stay on your phone. Token Stack is an independent, fan-made tool. It is not affiliated with, approved by, or endorsed by any card game publisher. Card names and artwork remain the property of their respective owners; full attribution and the fan content notice are in the app's Settings.
