Touring the markets on moonkarts

When I first started playing Moon Karts, I was curious about how the card system worked, so I decided to explore the in-game market to see what was available and how I could upgrade my kart. To my surprise, the experience was really fun—and quite different from other games I’ve played before.

Unlike typical card games that focus on monsters or magical powers, Moon Karts uses cards to represent actual kart parts—like gears, tires, and engines. Each card directly affects your vehicle’s performance during races. I found this approach refreshing and easy to understand. There’s no overwhelming complexity—just pick the parts that best match your playstyle.

Card prices vary widely. I noticed that the most affordable cards start at around $0.11. These are usually common cards with modest effects—perfect for beginners. On the other end of the spectrum, some high-tier cards can cost up to $750. These are rare and powerful, offering major performance boosts that are especially helpful if you're aiming to compete for bigger rewards.

The most coveted cards in the game are the Legendary ones. These are extremely rare and hard to come by, but if you're lucky enough to get one, they can give you serious advantages—like quicker acceleration, better balance, or faster energy recovery. While these perks are significant, it’s worth noting that skill still plays a huge role in winning races. So even without a Legendary card, you can still hold your own if you race smart.

Overall, my market tour gave me a solid understanding of how the card system works and what I need to level up my kart. I'm still on the hunt for the perfect set of cards to make me faster and stronger in the next races—but I’m definitely enjoying the journey.
