Gameplay

The DS version carries over the complete rule set of Press Pass's Premier Edition card set and its Blood and Water expansion, totaling nearly 500 cards. Players shuffle and arrange cards with the stylus across a fully touch driven interface, battling AI opponents in Single match or Character mode, or facing friends through Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Clearing matches unlocks playable characters such as Edward Elric, Roy Mustang, Father Cornello, and Lust, each voiced by members of the original English dub cast.

Premise

Rather than tell an original story, the game exists to digitize the tabletop card game's mechanics, letting players build decks around Fullmetal Alchemist characters and abilities and battle head to head using the same rules found in the physical Press Pass set.
