A
couple of years back, it seemed the kids in New York City played
Magic the Gathering religiously. At school, during lunch, on the
street... we saw Magic cards were raging and trading
"valuable" cards for real goods was a common barter. A
walkman for a card or a video game for a card, etc. That fervor
seems to be gone now although Magic's still out there.
Take up the persona of a warrior named Dominia and use
a deck of cards to battle your way through the ranks to reach your
goal. Five powerful crystals have been scattered throughout the land
and your job is to retrieve them. Magic the Gathering games have
appeared on the PC but this is an original production from Sega with
impressive DC powered pictures. Red dragons appear imposing
and exquisitely detailed whilst winged harpies seem almost gilded
with dustings of gold. The gist is this: assemble an assortment of
cards which represent attacking avatars, defenders, magical attacks
and other measures to help any warrior on an arduous quest. |
