Players can receive rewards for success in the game or purchasing booster packs. As with real world card packs, the contents of booster packs will be randomized, but many of them will contain MMO specific "loot cards." When found, the lucky recipient will be able to trade the card in for a piece of EverQuest or EverQuest II loot.

The graphics are smooth and very attractive. The cards are animated and when battle takes place the characters on the cards seem to come to life. The playmat is also animated.  The colors are rich and vivid. There are sparkly glitter effects for magic too. The music is excellent. While you are playing or just as a screen saver the Legends of Norrath is a useful addition for Everquest fans. The interface is on one side an it allows to to not only peruse your card game, but you can also switch back and forth to MMO play.

The game is more interesting than just playing with the paper cards in some overly lit room full of teen fan boys. Having the cards online opens the genre to millions of players of all ages in a relatively safe environment. Although, all online games have become careful to point out that the chat online is not rated by the ESRB and up to this point it has been said that it's impossible to filter out all hostility from the notoriously obnoxious elements in the gaming community.

For those who enjoyed CCG like Magic the Gathering or Yugioh then this would be a good game to get into as well. If you've been curious about MMO's this is a way to have the best of both worlds.  It is all done seamless and crash-less. It's an unexpectedly well done game if this is your cup of tea.  Beginners will be very much at ease with a game like this although they might want to get involved with the Everquest MMO first to get aquainted with that world and its lore. The game is a solid 8 out of 10.
