    They should've just called this game Crackcept, it's nearly too addictive to be believed. The battles are beyond epic, just when you think you're dominating, a bad roll of the dice forces you to rethink your strategy to regain what you lost. The fact that you can create up to ten different books of 50 cards each means that you can play each battle exactly as you'd like, but also means that no two battles will ever be even remotely alike (or predictable). This game's stupefying level of depth and replayability amount to a sleeper classic that is second to none. Needless to say, I am almost giddy that Culdcept Saga is coming very soon to the Xbox 360. Joy!… Expand

    This game is really good. I am playing 2 characters at the same time to try to get all the cards (480 of them!) It really is a perfect marriage between Monopoly and Magic the Gathering by taking the good parts and combining them. Instead of buying a space on the board, you cast a creature onto it and then either leave it only or pay to upgrade it so if the creature is not defeated by an opponent (or not challenged at all) they will pay higher magic points to land on it. You play with a 50 card deck that will start over if you run out. Creatures have innate abilities and can be boosted with weapons, armor, scrolls and even other creatures. For those concerned about time, you can save in the middle of a game and come back to it at any time. A+ game that I would recommend to anyone.… Expand

    My girlfriend and I got this because we like Magic: The Gathering and the graphics on the box seemed very appealing. Now, even though I have a library of about 70 PS2 games, this is the one we always end up playing. It fits our every mood, is extremely fun single player and multiplayer, the atmosphere and art are fantastic, and the card collecting aspect is extremely well implemented and addictive. This game just works exactly like you want it too, and it's just awesome. Absolutely one of my favorite games on the system. I wish I had something like it for one of my portables... At only 10 bucks or so used and 20 bucks new, there is no excuse not to pick it up if you are even remotely interested in the concept.… Expand

    An excellent game suffers only mildly by the double randomness of both dice rols and deck shuffles. can be very adictive but can sometimes frustrate when a bad series of rolls or an unlucky shuffle have you stuck landing on high rent spaces with only items in your hand . would love to see a sequel or tournaments being done in us.

    WARNING! Obsessive Compulsive Behavior ahead. This is a must have for tactics and strategy enthusiasts. It may look like kids stuff at first glance, but do not be deceived. The single player game is really challenging and enjoyable, but the multiplayer game will completely dominate your weekends and holiday vacation time. I really can?t believe how much fun this game is. I can?t wait to get home and play this ugly freakish little import.… Expand

    Don't let the Japanese RPG look fool you - this game is seriously addictive and one of the best things I've played on my PS2 this year. A hidden gem!

    Even its obscurity and relatively steep learning curve can't bring down this subtle, challenging and entertaining gem of a game. [Mar 2004, p.40]

    It’s a fun title that boils down to good old-fashioned board game fun that just happens to be on a DVD.
