Magic the Gathering has proven to be an extremely popular card game over the decades. Players from all over the world have collected any number of cards and played against people of all ages in tournaments the world over. It was inevitable, therefore, that Magic the Gathering would try its hand, thank you, at making a videogame. Hearthstone, the addictive card game from Blizzard, has proven that there’s a market for this fast paced card game in the videogame space.

 

Magic the Gathering has entered into the PC gaming space before with a couple of paid entries in the series that did ok, but quickly lost players as yearly installments released with new cards and flashy new tables. This entry, though, is free. This allows everyone to get in with no hassle and the paid options in the game are only there for dedicated fans – who will make up the price difference by going free.
