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 clearest difference is price: Myth Matrix at Free against Spectromancer HD's $9.99. Myth Matrix also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months). Spectromancer HD's advantage is ratings volume (55 vs 5). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Myth Matrix is free to download; Spectromancer HD costs $9.99 up front. Spectromancer HD sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Myth Matrix sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Myth Matrix holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spectromancer HD has 55 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of Spectromancer HD's written reviews are positive against 80% of Myth Matrix's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Spectromancer HD ships an update every 5 months, Myth Matrix every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
