Chron X is an online collectible card game and a turn-based strategy game in which you battle your opponent over the Internet with an arsenal of agents, weapons, programs, and resources chosen from your deck of virtual cards.
Chron X was the first online trading card game, first released by Genetic Anomalies in May 1997. The original game designer was George Moromisato, with later sets designed by Andrea Shubert, Dan Collins, and Ian Schreiber. Pete Bodenheimer and Slava Zatchuny also contributed to set development.
The game has had several publishers since its release: Genetic Anomalies, Sony Online Entertainment, THQ, and later Blue Sky Red Design from 2003 to 2007. On May 28, 2007, the tenth anniversary of Chron X, Darkened Sky Studios acquired Chron X for an undisclosed sum. Darkened Sky has begun work on a new, web-based client in an effort to revitalize and repopularize the game.
