There's no doubting that Magic: The Gathering is a monster of a game. The collectable card game has been going strong since its inception in 1993 and shows no signs of stopping. There have been many videogame adaptations of Magic; some bad, some woeful and some of them playable. Magic: The Gathering - Tactics takes a fresh approach, rather than being straight port of the classic card game it recreates many of the card game’s mechanics in a turn based spatial combat arena adding an extra dimension of strategy.
