Collectibles & Cards

The card is the most-used surface in ANIMINT — it appears in expeditions, the Forge, your Collection, the Marketplace and on profiles. Everything about it is designed to tell you a card's rarity and status at a glance.

Anatomy of a card

A card frames its art in a rarity-coloured border, with the name and a rarity chip beneath, and a mono line for the mint id and set. The frame colour and glow are driven entirely by rarity — you never have to read the label to know what tier you're holding.

Owned, new, duplicate, favorite

The same card communicates a lot through small pills. A 'New' tag flags a fresh find, an x-count pill shows duplicates, a star marks favorites, and a 'Showcased' tag means it's pinned to your profile.

Missing cards drive the chase

Cards you don't own yet appear as dark, dashed silhouettes labelled 'Undiscovered' — no name, no art. The mystery is intentional: it turns your Collection into a visible to-do list and gives every expedition a target.

Rarity chips & the Creator badge

The small pill on each card is a RarityChip — rarity-coloured text on a tinted background. Creator cards additionally carry a gold CreatorBadge so community art never blends in with official art.

Holographic tiers

Legendary, Mythic, Limited and Creator cards earn an animated holographic sheen — a band of light that sweeps across the art. It's the game's way of making the rarest cards feel special the moment you see them. (The sheen pauses for players who prefer reduced motion.)
