Magic: The Gathering Online

[DirtyUncle]

Any fan of Trading Card Games (or playing cards, in general) should really give this game a try. Magic: The Gathering (Duels of the Planewalkers) is currently available on the PS+ for free. If you are looking for a quick strategic (if nerdy) battle with cards featuring magic, powerful creatures and cool artwork then this title should get a quick look. I believe it's around 100 mbs to download.

The game has a complex ruleset so I'll explain just a little bit so that the new gamers don't get put-off.

How to Play

1. The game is played in turns, each turns has several phases.
2. Each player starts with a 7 cards in hand and a deck to draw more cards from. You draw 1 card/turn.
3. You start the game by playing LAND CARDS (these give you mana)
4. Then if you have enough mana, you can summon CREATURES into play
5. These creatures have an Attack/Health rating. Written as 4/5 to mean: Can do 4 damage, Can take 5 damage
6. Each round you can attack with your creatures and the enemy can defend with his.
7. Each player has 20 hit points, the objective of the game is do enough damage (via attacks and spells) to kill the opponent

If this sounds interesting to anyone, please post so that we can setup a game sometime. An average match takes about 5-10 minutes to finish.

P.S. Important to note that Duels of the Planewalkers if FREE not Duels of the Planewalkers 2012!
