Magic: ManaStrike

It offers the same casual friendly fun of Clash Royale but in a format that shares a lot of similarities with proper card games. As a result, it does a good job of bridging the gap between the two communities. So if you’re a fan of Clash, Magic, or card battlers in general, we can easily recommend Magic: ManaStrike, as it scratches the itch for all three. And, even if you’re not, it’s well worth checking out because it serves as a great jumping off point.

As far as the mobile component of the game goes, the controls are engineered to work well on a touch screen. However, the game is absolutely draining on battery and cell data, and the server connection drops easily on data if you aren’t in 5G or LTE service areas. Unfortunately, that makes this a “plugged in and on wifi only” game. The large patch sizes also make wifi a must for ManaStrike. Which isn’t to say Magic: ManaStrike is a bad game. But it could be better.

Pour conclure, Netmarble semble avoir rassemblé les meilleurs éléments de ses concurrents, en combinant ce qui se fait de mieux du côté des free-to-play populaires tout en y greffant des particularités provenant de l’univers de Magic the Gathering : on retrouve un titre plaisant, qui ravira les fans de la licence et du genre, avec des animations et des graphismes soignés, sans forcer les joueurs à mettre la main au porte-monnaie.
