  1. This games intricacies are well worth the reward. [Feb 2006, p.111]
  2. Underneath its modest looks and intimidating, complex battle system is a turn-based strategy game that is surprisingly fun and satisfying.
  3. Far too similar to games that are wonderful. So while it's not hideous or unplayable, it constantly reminds you of a far better game you could be playing instead.

    You can't really knock a game for trying to be creative. I think it's a nice change. Sure it could have been better, but with the graphical limitations of the DS, what more could they really have done? A 3D game just wouldn't look nice. I thought this was a creative way to get around that. Expand

    It's a very deep, well-thought out game. The only thing that lets it down is brain-dead AI. If they improved that, then I might have played through all the skirmish maps to unlock all the cards, and for fun. However, after beating the campaign, I was bored of the game because it was impossible to lose. Expand

    While the game has many new and unique ideas, the implementation falls short. The use of only a stylus for most of the controls bogs the game down, and looking around the map while seeing if any of your units are being targeted is horribly complicated. The graphics are minimal, and most of the time it's like watching a chess game where you can only see a quarter of the board. While the card system is a neat idea, and I like that you can get new cards at the end of each battle, The effects of those cards are hard to see, and often will leave you guessing as to what happened. The deck edit is also not very well done, and though you can have three different decks, I beat the game with minimal edit to one. The gameplay overall is novel at first, but after time seems to drag on. and on. This game needed smaller maps, better controls, and a tweaking of the deck edit program to be successful. If you like the story line, then play it for a laugh, but don't buy it. Expand
