Shonen Jump's Naruto anime is all about Naruto Uzumaki � a spazz-tastic young ninja who dreams of becoming Hokage, the ultimate ninja master! The Naruto card game lets you control an entire ninja clan from the anime and duel a friend to prove that your ninja are the strongest. The Coils of the Snake expansion adds more cards to the game, including new Client cards and the Mental Power ability! Here's our card game review.

Naruto CCG: Coils of the Snake 411

This set is packed with 131 new cards including Client cards and Mental Power! Here's the 411 on these new abilities do.

Client Cards - These cards hang around and give you bonuses when certain things happen.
Mental Power - A new way to battle, it's like doing math homework to see who wins a fight!

Coils of the Snake - Wicked Ninja Skills!

The six new Client cards are a cool way to power-up your deck and they're easy to collect too! There are also a bunch more cool ninja characters, different versions of Naruto and his friends, a snake monster and Gaara!

Coils of the Snake - Lame Cards

Mental Power is kinda cool, but the ninja from the first set don't have any Mental Power at all, so you need to grab some Mental Power cards or you can get clobbered. There are also new Sand cards, but you can't use them without the Super Rare Gaara of the Desert or Rare Kankuro cards!

Coils of the Snake - Wrappin' It Up

Client cards are great and easy to get, Mental Power is so-so, Gaara is hard to collect but awesome and the rest of this set is solid. Definitely pick up a few if you're a fan of the Naruto card game. And, grab a lot of cards if you want to use Mental Power properly.
