Tons of cards and plenty of free/easy to get materials to craft cards you want. Join a clan asap and you can get materials easily. The gameplay is fantastic and you can make the same Spellslingers/planeswalkers play a variety of decks. Matchmaking is quick and fun. The actual strategies are way more fun than other games I got into like hearthstone and you don’t end up with a hand of all lane cards or no land cards like in regular Magic, which was always insane to me that they never solved that problem but people still play it. ### 4/5 — Allow outside audio sources *2023-10-16* I’ve been playing for over a month now and I’ve been throughly loving the game. However I do not want to use the in game sound and instead listen to outside audio sources for music and podcasts. The fact that the game forces any other audio source to shut down when you open the app even with all of the sound settings turned off is very silly. It would be a very easy fix to disable that feature to allow players to listen to what they want when playing. ### 5/5 — Really Fun *2023-07-25* This game is awesome. The games are very quick paced and simple. I have one suggestion however, the character models in the lobby look kinda funky and weird. It’s not so much that I can’t play the game without laughing, but Nissa looks like she’s seen some things. The one that bothers me the most is Ral. He looks like he just committed a crime and is trying to act natural. These are fine though, I’m not trying to govern how you guys design your characters, but it’s just my personal opinion. Also, I don’t know how you guys add new Spellslingers, if you have a list or what, but I would like to see Tibalt as a Spellslinger. Other then these, you guys are doing great, keep up the good work. ### 5/5 — Really Fun *2023-06-24* This game is awesome. The games are very quick paced and simple.

I have delved and invested into all of them heavily. Hearthstone, pokemon, Yugioh, Magic, etc etc. The art and lore of magic the gathering along with the competitiveness and mechanics make it far superior to any other. HOWEVER (and this is a big however) as a 32 year old father and husband I don’t always have the time or money to enjoy mtg arena or fnm. So I often find myself mindlessly playing hearthstone. I’m glad it’s there it is great for what it is. But a simplified version of magic for phones fills a niche I think many will enjoy. The tutorial is a bit long prior to providing freedom which makes sense as people of all ages will be downloading this. But good job and keep up the good work Wizards. We love you. ### 3/5 — Easy to learn, fun, annoying bugs *2023-03-28* I love the universe of Magic the Gathering, but I’ve never liked any of the direct ports of the paper game to digital form. They either cut too much out, or are overly clunky. But Spellslingers is the same world and flavor in a much more digital friendly format. It isn’t the same game, but it captures the spirit in a shorter, simpler way. Is it as deep as paper Magic? No. But it isn’t child’s play either. The monetization is odd, I wouldn’t say it’s worth spending money on as you could drop well over $100 and not get the cards you want for a super specific deck. But, if you just play you’ll unlock all the cards you want in a few months. My big gripe is the bugs on mobile. I constantly can’t even log into the game as it thinks I’m disconnected. Then, when I do get in, half of the matches never connect and count as losses for me. I don’t have any of those issues in the Steam version. Honestly, I’d be giving it 4 or 5 stars if it was even kind of useable mobile. ### 4/5 — Fun enough *2023-03-01, version 1.04* I like the Idea of a smaller, more vibrant, character filled version of a well established card game; it gets me better acquainted to the mechanics of the full game or at least it’s something to do when I’m bored. It reminds me of what Duel Links did for Yu-go-oh, and I’m still paying that… wish I could play sideways tho. Also, I’m a big advocate for more skip options for dialogue. ### 1/5 — Unfair decks *2023-02-13, version 1.04* They need to make it more fair for facing ashiok decks cause with his ability over giving you nightmares if you have the plane that allows you to draw 2 cards sometimes it can bug the timer to where you end up not getting a turn at all. Not only that but every time I go into ranked to try and go up the ladder I end up stuck in bronze either cause they other enemy has to many creatures ready to fight me or I end up getting health taken and time stollen from a ashiok. Please fix these things it would make it more fair and a lot better if we didn’t have to worry about these things a lot. ### 2/5 — Incredibly slow gameplay *2023-02-13, version 1.04* If you’re a fan of magic maybe pass on this one. It’s like an mtg/marvel snap crossover. But the thing I liked about snap was the quick games. This is not that. All creatures have vigilance basically but damage Carrie’s over from round to round. Tutorials went by quick enough but the first 4 or 5 games I played against actual opponents boiled down to play all your creatures swing all your creatures block all their creatures repeat. Maybe it gets better later, but the games last way too long to be that stale. At least in magic you have to think about swinging out so you can keep blockers up. ### 5/5 — Tips For Newcomers *2023-02-01, version 1.04* I have played this game for 4 months now and what makes me love it very much is that It isn’t a pay to win game. No matter the level you are there isn’t restriction to getting just any card you want. The thing people need to understand is they will NEED patience, because there is items required to craft cards. You can get up to 2-3 card packs a day just playing and doing quests. If there is cards you aren’t pulling from packs but really want, you craft them. Crafting requires being in a “clan/alliance”. You request crafting items then wait 8 hours to request again. You also get crafting items from duplicate cards, once you have two of a card type it becomes “duplicate” afterwards. The Game is difficult at times but in the end it is based on the skill and knowledge of the opponent. They might have more experience than you or they might have a better hand than you. Just breathe, it is a game and it can make me rage but I will always come back to this game. Practice, understand your cards, get use to planeswalkers play styles. You got this. ## Frequently asked questions about Magic Spellslingers ### What kind of game is Magic Spellslingers? Magic Spellslingers is a fast-paced strategic card battler.
