Arcomage is a card-based heroic fantasy based on a game found in Might & Magic VII for the PC. This is an excellent remake of the classical card game in Might & Magic VII (playable in the Taverns of the PC game). It was ranked third in the Neoflash Summer Coding Competition.
Objectives
Each player has a deck of cards and holds a tower and a wall, which they can upgrade or attack using cards. There are also three different resources: beasts, bricks and gems. Each resource is needed for a specific type of cards and increases every round, depending on a modifier. The goal is either to achieve a specific limit of resources, tower or wall or to completely destroy the opponent’s wall and tower.
How to play
There are several online guides for Arcomage if you are lost, but since the DS version is slightly different, here’s how to play:
You lay out each one, you and your enemy, of a castle and a floor protecting it, all two of a certain size. Your goal is either to destroy the enemy castle, or to assemble your castle to the maximum size of 100. For that you have resources (Mana, Pierres, Or), which increase with each turn according to the number of generators (Temples, Carrires, Gold mines) that you have. With the beginning of the turn you have a hand of 6 cards with the various effects, which require each one a certain number of resources to be played. If you have enough resources to play it, place your cursor above and press A. If on the contrary you wish discard a card, press X. In each case, your turn is played and comes that from the computer. After its turn, you recover a new chart and your resources are increased according to your generators. And so on until the victory… or the defeat?
