About

Pack Rip Tycoon

Features
Read full description

Stream yourself ripping packs. Tap to dig through bulk. Rip a pack and watch it tear open. Pull something good and the chat notices. Sell it, grade it, or keep it โ€” and slowly turn a folding table in a basement into a studio worth watching. EVERY COPY IS ITS OWN CARD Two Near Mint copies are not the same card. One has clean edges and a scuffed surface, the other the reverse. Centering, edges, corners and surface are tracked per copy, and you can see all of it before you decide what to do. RIP, GRADE, SELL, REPEAT Eighteen products across three lines โ€” Normal, Vintage and Foreign. Bulk cards to sealed collections. Send a card off to be graded and get back a slab, or a lesson. Restore a beaten copy and find out whether it was worth the fee. THE PULL IS THE POINT Every so often, while you're digging, something turns up. It's a pack and you tear it open โ€” most of the time it's nothing much. Sometimes it isn't. BUILD THE SHOP Hire an editor. Upgrade the room. Fill a shelf with cards that actually earn while you're away. Work your way from a basement to a penthouse, and take your collection with you. COLLECT THE BOXIES Cardboard creatures across three sets, in every rarity from common to chase. Battle with what you pull. There's one trophy you can't buy, watch an ad for, or luck into โ€” you have to finish the whole thing.
