You are able to level up monster cards by sacrificing your excess collection of them (mobile game-style), and you earn in-game currency that you can use to purchase more packs of cards, with the most valuable cards being quite rare. For the most part you just want to create decks of cards out of the most powerful monsters that you have multiples of in your collection (so you can stack them during a battle), and that you like the look of the most. There are some additional abilities to take into account (strengths, weaknesses, and some monsters have special abilities that are worth using rather than having them attack on their turn), but Eternal Destiny has nowhere near the kind of complex and layered synergies that other card games do. Monsters have two statistics to manage: damage dealing ability, and health, and from there it's a pretty simple mathematical equation to figure out how much damage a monster will take from an attack. After that it's basically a matter of attacking your opponent with your souped-up monsters until one side overpowers the other. Then you can power them up once more by stacking a third monster of any type. Basically, you throw monsters down to your side of a play grid, and then "evolve" them by stacking two of the same kind of monster on top of one another. Eternal Destiny looks more complex than it is.

So that's a win, too.Įternal Destiny would have done well to take some notes from how Shadowverse or Hearthstone handle information, because both of those games are much more mechanically complex, but feel much more streamlined to play. Once you push through all of that, however, there's a simple, but fun, card game underneath. The other thing that lets the game down right away is the interface, which is ugly on the eyes and overly busy with the information that it shares, and that makes Eternal Destiny more difficult to learn than it should have been. It's horrible, and sours the experience from the outset.

Given that THE Card Battle: Eternal Destiny was released five years ago on PC (where it's just called "Eternal Destiny"), I am a little disappointed that the developer didn't clean up the localisation for release on the Nintendo Switch.
