The last game made by original SNK. The gameplay is a natural evolution of the first game; reaction cards seem like a small addition but essentially having "trap cards" on hand is a welcome addition. Also, the card art has been completely redone, enjoyable alongside the original art.

There's a story this time, and it's broadly a goofy chase-the-bad-guy stuff, though that means that opponents unlock in a linear order. Unfortunately, you can't explore the places you go to, even though there's a map screen. For convenience you can also just challenge everyone from a menu if you're trying to get cards, but the world is nice to have. SNK put a lot of love into this and the previous game.
