RapTastics, the ultimate card game that gives you unlimited access to the music lifestyle. This card game is super easy to play by yourself or with your friends. To play, you just select three cards and try to make the points on your cards higher than your opponent's cards. When you win a round, you get to take away one of your opponent's cards and add it to your collection. The more cards you add, the stronger your record label becomes. You can check your card levels at any time by going to the "Cards" section. If you need more cards, you can simply go to the "Store*" section* and purchase card packs. Good luck and Enjoy!!!
