    The Elder Scrolls: Legends is really good CCG that cleverly milks the Elder Scrolls universe and turns it into an entertaining card game. Legends feels quite different from Hearthstone both because of the Lane mechanics but also the two-attribute deck building that brings more variety to the game. The game's Magicka (the equivalent of Mana) doesn't stop at 10 like it does at Hearthstone, so decks that play for the long game can get to play more expensive cards more easily, which can be a lot of fun. I've been enjoying playing through the campaign and (being a Skyrim fan) playing with all the Shouts and the Dragons. While I'm not going to desert Hearthstone for Legends, I like jumping from one to the other since they give me different kinds of challenges and tickle different parts of the brain. Overall, Elder Scrolls: Legends is a card game definitely worth your time and one that has a lot of potential to get even better.

    If you’ve got the time and the storage to spare and love card battlers, or if for some reason it took The Elder Scrolls to finally drag you into this genre, you’re going to want to give this game a try and very well might find it your newest mobile addiction. Let’s hear it for iteration.

    The Elder Scrolls: Legends is a great CCG, but you're going to have to stick with it to really discover that.

    It took forever to come out on Android, and it was not worth the wait.

    The 2 lanes thing seems pretty gimmicky. The biggest problem, though, is that it feels so unpolished. It literally seems like they took a low quality CCG and added Elder Scrolls names to the cards. On top of that, it's visually unappealing and pixelated. Extremely disappointing, especially after trying Faeria, Hex, and Hearthstone, all of which are miles ahead.    … Full Review »
