Culdcept SAGA combines the strategy of a board game with the depth of a trading card one to create a unique fusion
of traditional turn-based play. There was a demo available on Xbox LIVE Marketplace for Gold members which even allowed players to have a go at the game's multiplayer mode. It featured a single player mode, of course.
Gameplay is rather simple in Culdcept Saga, but that doesn't mean you'll get bored playing. You see, by "simple" we mean that the rules are basic enough to make you want to play immediately, but as soon as you move around the game board and attempt to claim ownership of land squares, all this while battling enemy monsters, you will realize that it is quite complicated. You'll see that it takes more than one try to succeed. And if you do... you get the almighty game score points!
We know that true gamers play all these games just for fun, as they should and not in order to achieve specific point landmarks to prove their friends they are very cool, but we also know that sometimes you just can't live without achieving everything possible with a title you really enjoy. If that's the case and you want to know exactly what to look for when it comes to the game, we have prepared a full list of achievements. Good luck!
