A fun, easy to pick up adventure game. Cannot believe this is so obscure!
This game is a great flash from the past for anyone who is or was into the card game. Seeing these old cards takes me back to the days when I was a kid and collected and traded them.
The core gameplay holds up very well. You walk around a map that is populated with other 'planeswalkers' who will chase you down for a fight. At the same time, you must defend the countless cities from the 5 big wizards' minions (one wizard for each card type). This makes for a hectic game whos pace does not let up.
While this is happening, you will run into many 'random event' triggers which can be anything from finding cards, a dragons lair where you can fight for rare cards, or thieves who will trades your amulets (a form of currency) or gold (another currency form) for your choice of any card.
You will also be searching for clues to unlock the many secret dungeons, which contain more minions guarding even more treasure!
The pace is so fast that a whole day can go by in a flash while immersed into the game! It is more addictive than the Civ or Total War series, because there is no late game slowdown here.
If you enjoy this card game I can't recommend this lovely gem of abandon-ware enough!
