    I've been playing Solforge for awhile now and love it. I'm also playing the Hex alpha and Hearthstone beta but I find Solforge to be the most fun to play by far. The game is relatively easy to pick up and learn but difficult to master. It is a TCG at its core, so you'll need to collect free daily rewards for awhile to build a good deck unless you want to invest a bit of cash. You do start with a fair amount of cards though for free so it's easy to pick up and start playing/learning the game immediately. It's unfortunate to see a number of negative reviews on here. I agree that the game does not have the same depth of strategy as MTG (of which I've played for 20 years) but it is a very fun alternative. I find that there is room for both games in my library. I would highly recommend giving it a try for free.

I can't wait to see how it develops over time. As for people rating it zero and complaining about it being free to play, how is that any different than MTG/MTGO??? You buy packs until you get the cards you want or order them off ebay. Nerds just buy the cards they want off ebay for a few bucks each. This is no different except that it's all virtual. The game holds similarities to MTG but is refreshingly different. No resource management works well for the system they've developed. Card rarity is similar to magic as well. You have some rares that are almost game-breaking and other that just suck, the same can be said with commons. It feels just as balanced as MTG.

    One negative is that there is no way to influence your opponent during their turn. I understand that they are working on a solution to this in the form of Structure cards. The game is in Beta so there is much more to come to be sure.

    I'm really excited to see how the game evolves. I think it has the potential to blow duels of the planeswalkers out of the water. One next step should be to increase the quality of the card art. CCG fans are suckers for card art...

    Only getting a 9 because it's not a finished product.

    I have been playing Solforge since the iOS app became available and find it excellent. I don't play any other digital TCGs but do play Magic:I have been playing Solforge since the iOS app became available and find it excellent. I don't play any other digital TCGs but do play Magic: The Gathering and am very familiar with a few other cardboard TCGs. This game is very fun. Solforge is a free to play game with generous daily rewards just for playing. No need for "grinding" like in other games to get ahead. It will take some time to get some of the more competitive cards waiting on daily rewards but it is still quite playable as the system eventually matches you to others on the same level so you are not getting beat up all the time. There is also the ability to buy standard and premium packs to advance your collection faster. The community at the website is very helpful and friendly.

    The down sides: This game is still in production so all the bugs are not worked out yet (still wicked playable though). Card trading features are coming but not available yet.

    Overall, I thoroughly recommend getting into this game early and start your collection. Great games await you!
