Video Game Reviews of Magic The Gathering: Battle Grounds
Customer Review: If you're a fan of the card game, I'd stay away from this to avoid disappointment.
Summary: 2 Stars
Let me start off by saying that this game has almost nothing to do with the card game except for the basics you would assume it would need as it is a licensed game and all. The graphics aren't bad, tolerable I guess. The sound effects and music are pretty mediocre. There are no cards at all in this game, and the spells are extremely limited compared to the vast array of spells the card game offers. The thing that ticks me off most is that there is no strategy to this game. The whole point of the Magic series is strategy, but all you do in this game is spam spells as much as you can and eventually your opponent will be dead. Sometimes it feels like a really weird, less fun, version of dodge ball. I guess the best part of this game would be that I only spent $4.99 on it. I wouldn't recommend this even tot he most die hard of MTG fans.
