    Culdcept Saga blends luck and strategy in a refreshing way. It's unique to the xbox 360 lineup and provides compelling gameplay for both single and multiplayer. Creating decks with new found cards to play against friends or other Xbox live opponents is surprisingly fun and simple. The lack of an option to speed up AI play is frustrating and playing large games can be time consuming Culdcept Saga blends luck and strategy in a refreshing way. It's unique to the xbox 360 lineup and provides compelling gameplay for both single and multiplayer. Creating decks with new found cards to play against friends or other Xbox live opponents is surprisingly fun and simple. The lack of an option to speed up AI play is frustrating and playing large games can be time consuming and tedious. Beating the AI can be a challenge, especially if lady luck is not on your side. I would question the randomness of the dice when playing the AI. Example scenario... suspend a single player game, return to the game and play 5 turns noting the dice rolls. Quit to title menu and go back to the save point. Play five turns again and your first few 3-5 dice rolls will be identical.… Expand

    Culdcept SAGA is not for everybody. This is a slow-paced game with ugly graphics, a steep learning curve, and a terrible story line. Yet despite all of those imperfections, this is one adventure game that I will wholeheartedly endorse ... just as long as you're the kind of gamer that can handle it.

    Culdcept Saga does have one major addition over its predecessor: online play. While local multiplayer is still an option, Namco Bandai has included four-player online play in Culdcept Saga and it works like a dream.
