MOC ARCANA is a trading card game in which the meme tokens of the Cronos chain become playable cards. You summon Tokens, play Events drawn from real crypto history, call on the figures of the Cronos ecosystem, and bring your opponent's Community from 100 points to zero.
It runs in your browser, on desktop and mobile. The first duel is free and needs no wallet. The cards themselves are NFTs on Cronos: you pull them from packs, they live in your wallet, and you play them in the Arena.

What kind of game is it?
MOC ARCANA is a duel card game, one player against another (or against the AI), in the tradition of the classic trading card games: build a deck, draw, summon, attack.
- Your goal: bring your opponent from 100 Community Points (CP) to 0. CP stand for a token's popularity, its users and its strength on social media.
- Your fighters: Tokens, each with a level, an attack value (ATK), a defence value (DEF) and a faction.
- The twist: strong Tokens cost sacrifices. Levels 1 to 4 are free to summon, level 5 needs one sacrifice, level 6 two, level 7 three. Every duel is a question of timing: when do you trade your small Tokens for a giant?
- The surprises: Events, one-time cards inspired by real crypto events, and Personas, key figures of Cronos, some of which wait face-down and answer your opponent's moves.
The beginner's guide explains a full duel step by step, the rules have every detail, and the glossary explains every term.
The cards: Cronos memes, seven factions
Each Token card is a meme token of the Cronos ecosystem, drawn as a fighter. Tokens are split into seven factions, each with its own way to win:
- Fantasma brings its spirits back from the discard pile.
- Exuvia evolves, growing stronger each time it changes.
- Dominio steals, disrupts and forces discards.
- Ronax hits hard and fast.
- Cortexa plans combos several turns ahead.
- Umbra strikes from the shadows.
- Natura holds the board and grows stronger together.
Cards come in five rarities: Common, Rare, Epic, Legendary and Mythic. Rarer cards are scarcer, but every deck needs its common Tokens: they are what lets you summon your giants.
Read about each faction on the factions page, and see every revealed card in the Codex.

How the cards work on Cronos
The cards of MOC ARCANA are ERC-1155 NFTs on the Cronos chain.
- Packs of 10 cards. Each card is drawn on its own, with published odds: Common 57 %, Rare 30 %, Epic 10 %, Legendary 2.8 %, Mythic 0.2 %.
- A fair draw. Your cards depend on a block of the Cronos chain mined after your purchase. Nobody, not even the MOC ARCANA team, can choose or predict them. The contract is public on the Cronos explorer.
- A limited 1st Edition. Every card has a maximum supply written in the contract, and no function can change it. Cards are never reprinted; a sold-out card leaves the packs.
- First discoveries. Cards nobody has pulled yet stay sealed. The first player to pull a card reveals it to everyone, and their name stays on the card's page. The Hall of Fame keeps the latest discoveries.
- Yours to keep. Cards go straight to the wallet that bought the pack. You can send them to another Cronos address or trade them on a marketplace that supports Cronos ERC-1155 collections. A card you send away leaves your collection and your decks.
To get started, you need a wallet that works on Cronos (such as Crypto.com Onchain or MetaMask) and some CRO. Connecting your wallet also creates your account: no password, no email. The FAQ covers every step, and how to buy your first pack walks you through it.
Cards are game items made to be played, not an investment. Only spend what you can afford.
Why a card game for Cronos memes?
Meme tokens live on their communities: their jokes, their mascots, their moments. MOC ARCANA gives those communities a place to meet in a game. A token becomes a card with its own stats and effect; the big moments of crypto become Events; the people who built the ecosystem become Personas.
The result is a game you can enjoy without knowing a single token, and where Cronos regulars will recognise a lot of familiar faces.
