Gameplay wise, it is a dumbed down version of the physical card game. It is mostly there to scratch that collector’s itch that their other digital release didn’t fullfill, and to provide fast and straight forward matches.
You don’t have to buy anything on paper, but you’ll be heavily incentivised to do so, thanks to the usual mobile game and live service shenanigans.
I can’t seem to find any reference to anything other than the TCG Live game, which is pretty entertaining but as someone who pretty much stopped playing after Gen 3 these might as well be Digimon…
