CLASH OF HEROES (MORE LIKE AWESOME OF HEROES)

Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes is a very recent DS game by Ubisoft/Capybara Games. I described it to Karsuman last night as "Bejeweled, an RPG, and an RTS mixed together in the best way possible." Here's how it works (clap):

-Fight battles by shuffling your randomly-placed units into attack and defense (vertical and horizontal) formations by easily flicking the stylus up and down.
-Win battles and explore side-areas to get gold, ore and gems to purchase new Elite and Champion units (which die permanently)
-Solve optional Puzzle Battles with limited moves and do sidequests ordered by bounty agents to get even more resources, and fight mini-side-battles to get to chests that house Artifacts which boost your Hero's power or the power of a specific unit type (example: enhancing the Druid's charge time-adding attack to delay the enemy's attacks even more)
-Fight story battles that constantly feature unique, interesting and well-implemented gimmicks (example: the enemy army is holding a frail ally hostage, so while he's good at getting out of your attack formations' way, you still have to be conscious of him)
-Hate the intelligent AI so much, and love it at the same time
-Enjoy the story and its amusing E-rated dialogue (the story is actually good, but the E rating is hilarious at times)
-Look at the tons of art used in the cutscenes

It's pretty much a must-play unless you only play FPS games, in which case you should get this anyway because you should.

Great-looking game looks great.
