Culdcept is a popular series of video games in Japan. It’s like a cross between Monopoly and Magic The Gathering.

Last year NEC brought Culdcept to the US on the PS2 as a very limited release – just 30,000 copies – making it basically impossible to find a rental store that carries it nowadays. Luckily I was able to track down a copy last week and Brother, this is one sweet game.

You know how every now and then there’s a really cool game that sort of slips under the radar and you wind up never hearing about it? I think Culdcept is one of those unsung heroes!

Just look at these reviews:

Deeko.com: 9/10

Gamespy: 2003 Top Ten Games of the Year

Gamespy: 4.5/5

IGN: 8.7/10

Gamespot: 7.9/10 (idiots)

Do your best to track this game down before it disappears forever!
