It's not your traditional "card" game. You use cards simply as a way of organizing your deck, and then you summon those units, structures, and spells you've mixed and matched to dispose of your enemy. There are four main types, Fire/Red, Frost/Blue, Shadow/Purple, Nature/Green. Then there's a few variations to those such as Fire and Shadow, etc.

For a RTS it's less spam-a-lot than it is strategy oriented... No wonder it failed right? Making people think to win, what a sin! Except it's still pretty straight-forward unless you're playing on the hardest difficulties. However, the strategies you can employ with the various types of units, towers, and spells can be interesting if you're creative enough.

~Campaign mode offers three difficulties, Standard, Advanced, Expert. There's also single, duo, quad, and twelve-player maps. 1, 2, 4 Maps you can all SOLO if you're good enough.
~PvP has 1 on 1, 2 on 2, and 3 on 3 unranked maps. Ranked is 1s and 2s.
~Random PvE maps give you areas with different layouts each time but they are very similar straight-forward paths you must push through and kill all your enemies in to win. You're also racing the clock. Difficulty range is 1 through 10. 1, 2, and 4 player.
~Custom maps are from players that made their own campaign-style map, so because of that they can be more difficult or a push-over. Fun-fun. (I'm unsure if you can still create any.)
