A hybrid of CCG, Marbles and Transforming Robots, this dexterity game represents a battlefield, with competing forces battling for control. Each player takes turns shooting the marble-like Bakugan at the metal cards which have been placed to make up the play area. If the Bakugan lands at the right spot on the card, it will spring open and stand on the card, taking control of the card. When two Bakugan stand on the same card, they fight, using their strength, plus bonuses on the card they are attempting to control. Play continues until all areas are controlled, or one player's Bakugan have been eliminated. The winner is determined by the values of the areas taken, and other bonuses accumulated in play.
