There are also three different resources: beasts, bricks and gems. Each resource is needed for a specific type of cards and increases every round, depending on a modifier.
 
The goal is either to achieve a specific limit of resources, tower or wall or to completely destroy the opponent’s wall and tower.

There are several online guides for Arcomage if you are lost, but since the DS version is slightly different, here’s how to play:
* You start, you and your enemy, with a Castle of a certain Height and a Wall, protecting it.
* Your goal is to destroy enemy's Castle before he destroy yours, or reach a value of 100 for your Castle.


You lay out each one, you and your enemy, of a castle and a floor protecting it, all two of a certain size.
For this you've got 3 types of resources, each grows according to resources generators you own:
* Temple - Mana.
* Quarries - Stone.
* Gold Mines - Gold.  


Your goal is either to destroy the enemy castle, or to assemble your castle to the maximum size of 100.
For example, if you own 2 Temples, 3 Quarries and 1 Gold Mine, you'll get 2 Mana, 3 Stones and 1 Gold each turn.


For that you have resources (Mana, Pierres, Or), which increase with each turn according to the number of generators (Temples, Carrires, Gold mines) that you have.
To reach your goal, you've got a hand of 6 cards, which have different effects. Each card need a certain amount of resources to be played:
* If you have enough resources, play your chosen card (or select the cart with the stylus and tap on it to play it). Otherwise, the card can't be played.
* If you can't play a card or don't want a card, you can discard it.
* Once you've played a card (or discarded it), it's computer turn.
* After each turn, you get a new card to play.


With the beginning of the turn you have a hand of 6 cards with the various effects, which require each one a certain number of resources to be played.
And so on, until you win, or lose?


If you have enough resources to play it, place your cursor above and press A. If on the contrary you wish discard a card, press X.
==Controls==
Stylus or A - Play selected card


In each case, your turn is played and comes that from the computer.
X - Discard card
After its turn, you recover a new chart and your resources are increased according to your generators.
And so on until the victory… or the defeat?
