Revision as of 02:13, 24 September 2026

Jerry Darcy is a game designer credited as a designer of Decipher's Star Wars Customizable Card Game (SWCCG).[1]

This page is a fan encyclopedia stub focused on SWCCG-sourced credits. It does not invent unpublished job titles beyond what cited sources state.

SWCCG role

Wikipedia lists Darcy among SWCCG's designers with Tom Braunlich, Rollie Tesh, and Warren Holland.[1] Some secondary game databases list Braunlich, Tesh, and Darcy as designers while omitting Holland; this wiki notes that conflict and still follows Wikipedia's four-name designer line on Creators of SWCCG.[1][2]

Decipher's contemporary Radio Free Decipher series described Darcy as Star Wars CCG Lead Game Designer in a December 1998 episode index entry.[3] KendallCast / Corran on the Horn community interviews (2020–2022) likewise introduce him as former Decipher Lead Designer for SWCCG and walk Premiere through Special Edition set history.[4][5][6][7][8]

Those interview labels support a lead-design role during Decipher's expansion era. They do not, by themselves, prove the exact start date of an official "Lead Designer" title relative to Premiere (December 1995).

Interviews

KendallCast / Corran on the Horn (five-episode series)
