The Terminator Collectible Card Game is an out-of-print collectible card game published by Precedence and based on the 1984 film The Terminator. It was released in October 2000 as a single set of 349 cards, although some sources count 348 because of a missing Extrapolate card. The game closely resembles the Aliens Predator Customizable Card Game and is compatible with it. One player takes the role of the machine intelligence Skynet and tries to eliminate the other player, who commands the human Resistance. Players take turns playing Location cards and then placing Character cards at them, and the play was said to have a role-playing feel as characters search for equipment, look for chances to attack and hunt for characters important to the future. A player can win in one of three ways: by eliminating all of the opponent's main characters, by fulfilling 10 Mission Points from Mission cards, or by safeguarding or eliminating 10 Importance points worth of supporting characters. Players had to keep two separate decks, one for each side, which drew criticism in tournaments. The game was cancelled a year before Precedence closed as a company.
