Gone are the days where you had to bring physical decks of cards and spread them out on a table or some flat surface to play with a physical opponent. Gone are the days where you had to worry about the theft of your most prized cards. With Rage of Bahamut, trading card games (TCG) have reached a new pinnacle where there are actually a huge number of real life players to interact with.
Boasting a gamer-ship of over 3 million, Rage of Bahamut isn’t one of those run of the mill card games that promises everything but ends up pitting you with squadrons of lame computer initiated opponents that are just so predictable. Here, you can play against real players as you advance the rankings of the game while improving your deck and becoming a better player.
As per most, if not all TCGs, Rage of Bahamut involves collecting and dueling with cards based on dragons and other mythological fantasy creatures. Despite being a virtual game, the developers have left no stoned unturned especially when it came to designing the individual cards. With an already seemingly limitless amount of cards to collect and new ones being added on a frequent basis, Rage of Bahamut showcases every single one of its majestic creatures with beautifully rendered artwork that truly brings out the majesty within each beast.
Game play involves the familiar turn based process, as well as collecting points and leveling up amongst other things. One interesting bit of the game though is how players can choose an allegiance to side with, which definitely spices the game up a lot.
A free app to download, I definitely recommend this to TCG fans. However, be prepared to fork out a few dollars for in-app purchases if you want to advance far in the game.

TIPS FROM OTHER USERS
? “My best advice is join an order early and get to know your members. You get an order bonus in player battles and bonuses to your realm cards when your order builds it. Plus, you can participate in events and earn powerful event-only cards.”
? “I found myself highly addicted to this fun TCG (Trading Card Game) app. As you level up, you spend points in your stats to either progress in the quest line more quickly, or to battle others more effectively. You can balance these stats if you choose, or specialize for various purposes.”
