What’s It About?
Players try to increase their card collection through a line of missions that are attempts to outlast enemies by using stamina. As users touch the screen, foes fall, but so does character stamina. After a boss fight, if stamina remains, players get in-game currency and sometimes additional cards. If they run out of stamina, players can wait a while or buy a potion to recharge. Players can also battle others live by selecting their best cards and pitting them against opposing hands. Winning those battles gets you in-game currency and rare items.
Is It Any Good?
If you're not familiar with card battle games, Rage of Bahamut is not a particularly good choice to ease into them. A poorly designed interface and a lackluster tutorial combine to create a confusing arena for new players.
If you can get past that, though, the game itself isn't a bad one, and the art on the virtual cards is very well done, which is a large part of what makes these games fun. We're not crazy about being forced to log onto Mobage's system, but that does create a vibrant community of players to battle against.
