Bakugan Battle Brawlers - Loose Singles

By Ben Major

One of the hottest toys since last year continues to be the Bakugan Battle Brawlers games. These games involve a magical and mystical world where players control beasts who do battle to save the planet. The games and toys are based on the popular television series which currently airs in the United States on Cartoon Network. As is the case with most toys, as kids see a cartoon they like to follow, other kids at school begin to get the toys and soon it's on many children's wishlists!

With the Bakugan game, kids can collect different sphere marbles that are used for gameplay. The way the game is played is by collecting particular stat cards, and rolling these marbles onto a playing surface. There's special metal gate cards on the game board, and if a sphere marble happens to land on or roll over one, it causes the marble to come to life, almost. The sphere has a spring action to it and a cool toy monster pops up, ready to do battle. As two of these creatures land on the same card, then the two players will face off. The player with the highest point total, based on card stats, will win that battle and takes over the metal Gate card. It involves strategy, precision in rolling marbles, and of course math in adding up scores.

The reason kids are addicted to this sort of game is most likely because it adds a new dimension to roleplaying games, such as Magic the Gathering or Dungeon & Dragons, which were also very popular games. The new element is a bit more realistic as players can watch their creatures spring into action, ready to do battle. It seems like only a matter of time before these toys are given electronic features, making the battles more intense than before. For now, kids seem fine playing this game as it is, and the toys continue to sell out like crazy everywhere.
