What it does
2-4 players | 2+ packs | 10 minutes
OBJECTIVE: Match and collect the most treasure chests before someone uncovers the mimics hiding amongst the loot!
GET READY: Open one booster per player and remove any lands and cards without _Magic_ card backs, and then shuffle them together. Then put two lands back into the deck (to represent the mimics) and shuffle. Deal 16 cards face down in a 4x4 grid. Randomly determine who goes first.
LET'S PLAY:
On your turn, secretly look at two cards from the grid. If they share a color or mana value, you may reveal them, announce what matches and take those cards, then take another turn.

Where it came from
Mimic Match was released as part of the Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Minigames set, a promotional supplement designed to bridge the gap between traditional Magic: The Gathering gameplay and Dungeons & Dragons tabletop mechanics. The item emerged during a period when Wizards of the Coast sought to expand the reach of the franchise by embedding D&D flavor into the core card game, creating small-scale experiences that emphasized thematic flavor over competitive play.
The card's design leans heavily into the iconic D&D concept of the mimic, utilizing mechanics that reflect the creature’s tendency to surprise adventurers by masquerading as treasure. The illustration, consistent with the set's stylistic directive to evoke classic monster manual aesthetics, was crafted to feel nostalgic for long-time D&D players while remaining accessible to those primarily familiar with Magic, ultimately serving as an entry-level tool for casual play.
