    Digimon and card battle fans will find a comprehensive game in DCB, but non-fans could be turned off by the digital world.

    A surprisingly simple game lies beneath these convulted rules and great graphics, which is a shame because this is the first Digimon game to do justice to the cartoon.

  5. GamePro
    50
    True strategy is jettisoned by unpredictable card draws that cause the matches to vacillate between frustrating and extremely boring.

The critic reviews are laughable, no wonder they don't even exist today.… Full Review »

As for strategy, there is a perfect mix of luck and strategy that needs to be present in a card game. If I had one complaint, it would be the story, or basic lack thereof.… Full Review »
