I made this game all by myself. Yes, it is a real online PvP card battle game, I’ve finally managed to made it, congrats to myself :) Due to the love of traditional card battle games and to lower the learning curve, I adopted the very basic rules, and added lots of innovative and fun features and cards that I’ve fantasized. For example, a board with slots, Terrain system, Trap mechanism, and fun keywords such as Spy, Melee, Ranged, etc. I’ll keep updating new and fun stuff (lots of works are planned). If you find this game enjoyable, please share with others and leave a good review. It’s very helpful to a real indie developer. Much obliged! Talk to me and find other players on Discord: discord.gg/sURPfcegQb Shoutout for Komar, who’s helped me with Polish translation.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Myth Matrix at 5.0 against Card Hero's 4.3. Myth Matrix also leads on ads (none vs shown). Card Hero's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Myth Matrix holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 5 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Myth Matrix's written reviews are positive against 86% of Card Hero's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Myth Matrix ships an update every 3 weeks, Card Hero weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
