So, this is a complete must have game for the ds... No collection is complete without it, it incorporates games such as; solitaire, rummy, texas hold 'em all, darts, billiards, chess, checkers. There really is 42 games, 38 of them which are playable online.
Gameplay 10/10 This is amazing. This game is so fun it will keep you playing for months on end, it has all your classics you will ever play ever. This game is relativly easy when you first get it but as you unlock normal or hard on stamp mode. Or change it on the settings. Well the controls on this game are amazing it uses the touch screen extremely well, this is one of the touch generations games...
Graphics 6/10 Well what can i say... it does all it needs too do... nothing very special here. But i must say that you can see all the cards perfectly... the only thing i was disapointed about was the pool... but other than that its fabulous
Sound 9/10 About what you would expect from the Ds, it can be played in surround sound. You can hear the cards being dealt or the darts hitting the board... the only downfall is a little bit dated music. No problem here.
Multiplayer 10/10 Well what can i say, it has Single card download, multicard play and Nintendo Wi-Fi... Single card download, is where you send the mini-game to somebody else and then they can pay it... Multicard is where you play head to head... Wi-Fi you play online to friends or random anonymous people, this game also has its own version of pictochat which has different colours and stamps. This allows you to write or draw too your opponent in the middle of battling him... but only to people whom you have there friend code. If its an anonymous person then you use preset messages... This makes the game really shine.
Play-time 10/10 You will find your self playing this game forever. Its like having all of the games with you all the time, people have played all these games for years i can imagine i will be playing this game in the next decade.
Replayability 10/10 Again, same as above but you will be playing against all your biggest rivals around the world or just yor friends.
Buy Or Rent Well defiantly buy but if you are a hardcore gamer and only care about graphics and power, and do not appreciate the good old classics then do not buy, or at least rent or borrow first.
