Ratings and Reviews
Unplayable due to developer incompetence
Pay to win game which introduces so many bugs per update it’s ridiculous. With current update, once a crash occurs the app will not reopen forcing you to delete and re-download the app which is currently about a GB in size. The developers haven’t addressed this and a week has gone by. If you’re one of the silly people who has spent a lot of your money on this, you are currently locked out from something you have invested considerable resources in. Avoid. Play the physical version instead. Most people go online to find the current winning decks and then ‘buy’ the cards which are winning putting you at a huge disadvantage if you don’t intend on spending vast amounts of money on this. I spent a lot of time on this over the last six months and the latest update is the straw that broke the camels back. What’s more, changes are made to the mechanics of the game at whim so that if you have invested in a certain card type or deck structure, the affects of said card or structure can be changed at will (Alchemy) and you won’t be refunded for your time/money invested in that style of play.
It’s a game, hobby, and enables get-togethers in person
This game can get expensive but there’s lots of good content added regularly, so it’s worth it. What I particularly like is that there are many YouTubers who make videos on MTG Arena decks every day. This is interesting and watching them in the evening also helps to send me to sleep! This is actually brilliant because I get good quality sleep too. If you want to use this app as a vehicle to socialise you can because it facilitates playing the physical card game and there are local clubs for that. MTG Arena is better than Hearthstone and other collectible card games because with MTG Arena you can play easy decks or very complicated decks - other games don’t have the same level of potential complexity or variety of formats. For example, MTG Arena could hold your interest every day for the rest of your life, but other card games are too shallow for that.
Far too unstable
Before downloading this game, the number of hard resets I had to do on my iPad could be counted on one hand over the course of years. So far today I have had to do 3. This is not unusual, and in fact is so common as to be utterly infuriating. It doesn’t matter if you contact customer support, nothing will be done about it, as nothing has ever really been done about on any of the other platforms this game is released on. Wizards of the Coast are far more interested in providing ways for customers to spend money on cosmetics and events than they are on fixing all the innumerable bugs, stability issues or user interface oddities. So why 3 stars?
The underlying game is really, really fun. It’s great to play when it’s not having some huge malfunction. It’s so good that the lack of care over product quality ensures that Wizards can continue treating their customers with obvious contempt, and we’ll still keep coming back. If only they’d spent time fixing their game’s many issues, rather than focusing on monetisation, this game would easily have earned 5 stars.
