Hidden City Games raises $15M for trading cards
Hidden City is a Seattle startup by former Wizards of the Coast managers, the company that makes the massively successful Magic: The Gathering and Pokemon franchises.
Like Wizards, HCG is focused on collectible card games. The company already has a successful product, the Bella Sara line of cards for girls.
The funding is the company’s second, from Trinity Ventures and Rustic Canyon Ventures. [via peHub]
