Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
35 of 161 sampled reviews raised it
Mechanics are pretty interesting with an emphasis on interaction between cards of the same color, and effects that trigger if you discarded or banished a card during the turn.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
24 of 161 sampled reviews raised it
It stays true to the tabletop rules, but everything runs smooth — clean UI, quick matches, and a solid AI that actually fights back once you bump up the difficulty.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
17 of 161 sampled reviews raised it
I had a great time, though, both with the gameplay mechanics and the story.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
15 of 161 sampled reviews raised it
The art is cartoony and pretty funny, even though I would've preferred a darker art style, MTG style, with the occasional humorous touch.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
8 of 161 sampled reviews raised it
I am very much considering buying the full game, for pass and play multiplayer (if only Magic did this too!).
