    Artwork is awesome (we shouldn't consent less) and there are animations here and there to make battles livelier. However, it's hard to read cards at first glance, so you have to double tap to zoom in on them often.

    What this game seems good for however are those people who might be interested in playing the actual physical card game. They could try this virtual version without investing some serious cash in real cards beforehand while allowing them to see if they like the game and learning the basics.

    Duels of the Planeswalkers 2015 gives players what they've wanted for a long time by implementing deckbuilding, but it doesn't excuse the bare-bones package and needless extra monetization. The game within the template is still as fantastic as ever, and once you get into the groove, you'll enjoy stomping your enemies with your tuned deck. It's just a shame that 2015 never aspires to be anything more than a shell and delivery service.

    Magic: The Gathering - Duels of the Planeswalkers 2015 is attractive in that it's the first of the Duels games to allow extensive freedom to create custom decks, but it stifles that potential under cumbersome menus, grindy gameplay, and near-compulsory microtransactions. It's the most drab and featureless of the Duels games, and a low mark for a series that started out with such promise.

    Though it's still fun to battle opponents without having to fray my cards, dish out game night snacks, or use up gas to go where the in-person action is, I'll likely return to my Magic 2014 stock, and hope next year's entry provides more sustenance.

    It is very easy to tell what creatures on the board have what abilities and it is great for learning the basics to the game before moving onto higher levels of play or just playing if you’re an experienced player that doesn’t have the time to collect, manage, and build your own decks in real life. All being told it is a relatively well-made game with a few flaws that were too much for me to keep playing it through.
