The Game Chronicles Magazine has put up a review of WotC's online card trading game 'Magic The Gathering Online'. Rating: 7.0 out of 10 points.If you’ve ever played a board or card game on the computer then you know pretty much what to expect here. You have everything in the real world, just digitally rendered. So you really have no intense combat controls, frustrating jumping puzzles, or anything of that nature. You just point and click, unless of course you actually want to talk to your opponent, in which case you have to type, with your fingers!
So there’s nothing complicated to the controls. Despite that however, and despite the overabundance of tutorials, instruction manuals, and rulebooks they can still screw up a simple thing. There are a few interface issues, mostly with peripheral options (undoing moves during a game and the whole trading interface to name the more prominent and problem causing ones) that they do not tell you how to operate in all the aforementioned materials. It is stuff that can be cleared up by talking to folks already playing, and trust me there’s a lot, but you’d think that it could have been taken care of by the company. |
