The sound effects do the game justice and add more to the playing experience, especially when healing, casting a blasting spell or producing some acid rain. I did have to turn the music down after a while as the flute player was really starting to grind on my nerves but it didn’t totally ruin my experience of the game.

If you do find yourself getting bored wandering around the lands fighting random mages there is the option to plays duels online against other players who may or may not have the skills that it takes to defeat you. Unlike playing NPC’s, whose life points vary and may start with one or two cards already summoned, playing opponents online you start completely equal making the challenge more difficult or easy depending on what cards you have.

For my first fantasy card game I rather enjoyed this production from Three Donkeys. I found it engaged me and although the basic playability is easy to understand, it did offer a lot to think about with the cards that you have on offer, and certainly something that I may look into with future games that I purchase. I  can absolutely recommend it to players of all ages from any game background.
