    This is another of Magic's annual releases, the good news is it's free to play (at first), the file size has been cut almost in half (compared to the 2013 and 2014 series entries), it's playable on older iPad's (iPad 2 through current, as previous entries recommended iPad 3 or higher for best experience). The bad news, the graphics are very scaled back, the environment is very bland, andThis is another of Magic's annual releases, the good news is it's free to play (at first), the file size has been cut almost in half (compared to the 2013 and 2014 series entries), it's playable on older iPad's (iPad 2 through current, as previous entries recommended iPad 3 or higher for best experience). The bad news, the graphics are very scaled back, the environment is very bland, and for a series that has constantly been cutting edge with card art there really seems to be something lacking on the cards this time, lack of color, lack of variety in design, I can't exactly put my finger on it but something is off. The worst news, IAP's and if you plan on having a chance online you'll likely spend a quick $20-$30 dollars on cards. The packs and decks don't run cheap, it's a huge disappointment by Wizards of the West Coast, especially when you see what Blizzard was able to do with Hearthstone. This is only for the true die hard Magic player. Expand

    It’s not without room for improvement, but this is a genuine iteration of the digital Magic: The Gathering experience. The effort that has gone into bringing the game closer to the beloved real-world duelling pays-off, delivering far greater strategic depth and universe engagement. [Episode 6, July 2014]

    It's a friendly introduction for people like me, a flexible platform for hardcore players, and all-around the best version of Planeswalkers yet. Wizards of the Coast and developer Stainless Games have made a great showpiece for an enduring classic of a card game.

    Few games, let alone free-to-play games, offer as much quality, thoughtful content as Magic 2015.
