This game is certainly gonna be $20 pretty soon. If you want this game very badly, it’s nothing much to be hyped over because the demo already sucks. This should just be like a happy meal toy from Mcdonalds or something, because I wouldn’t give anymore than $5 for this. Probably be collecting dust if I ever bought it.

Only buy this game if you love the card game, and want to play online. There are two single player modes — Quest and Arcade. Both are terrible. Each battle is either extremely easy or extremely difficult — there’s no happy medium. You’ll waste hours fighting the same battle over and over again, trying to beat it with the badly designed deck they force you to play, only to finally win and then clear the next 10 battles in fifteen minutes. It’s far too frustrating to play, and I can only imagine the limited number of cards won’t give it much replay value even online.

I don’t know much about Magic the Gathering, but I like strategy games so I gave this one a try.
For a video game based on a card game, Magic is pretty action packed. In fact, the game plays a lot like one on one extreme dodgeball. The action is fast and frantic. There are two opponents on seperate sides divided by a line. If you cross the line, you lose life every 3 seconds or something like that. You pick up power ups that can be used to conjure up monsters or to cast spells. The more powerups you have the more stuff you can throw at the other guy. So basically you pick up white balls off the ground and then you use their power to send monsters to hit the other guy. Unlike dodgeball, though, you could even run over to the other side to steal your opponents power ups, or better yet, join your little monsters in the beatings. I guess it’s more like streetfighter/dodgeball. The game is action packed, and it’s somewhat entertaining, especially when playing with friends. I wouldn’t consider this a strategy or RPG, but it’s easily worth its bargain bin price. With this game, you definately get what you pay for. If you’re looking for a real strategy/rpg, I recommend Gladius.

This game provides entertainment, but is hardly worthwhile. Although the visualizations are enjoyable and the content is entertaining, the quest mode is absolutely inane and the gameplay directly contradicts the concepts of magic the gathering in several places.
Certainly there is give for making a game more action packed, Magic is by no means a fast paced game and giving it some life is welcome, but this game forgoes intelligent thought and strategy in favor of button mashing rivaled by fighting games. There is no time to properly form a plan of attack. When reading the rule book you begin to see numerous parallels between the game, such as respawn being equivalent to the end of a turn, however this is not the case, creatures lose toughness permanently until they die. This horrendously favors aggressive styles of play, and on top of that, being able to constantly cast one spell, over and over, completely eliminates the concept of “gas” where once you’re out of cards you have to slow down. This is one of the primary concepts that prevents sligh(red) decks from being totally unstoppable, and indeed you learn in this game that raging goblin and goblin hero en masse means the game becomes stupid fast. By the end of the quests you will be harder pressed to exactly execute the only winning combination of buttons possible that you might be better off with a DDR pad, give yourself no illusion of intelligent thought.
Without going into too many more magic specific vocabulary, let it be known that this game is going to turn alot of magic players off, way off. it might even pull out your plug and cut the cord. I bought this game for 10 dollars, so my losses were minimal, but think hard before you purchase this title.
