Spellweaver vs Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links
Spellweaver
Spellweaver is a free-to-play, MMO tradable card game (TCG) that features a deep card game mechanics that were inspired from popular card games such as Magic: The Gathering. Aside from hundreds of gorgeous collectible cards, the game also features a deep gameplay with elements of quest progression from online RPGs that lets you explore the lore and world of the game. This makes Spellweaver rather fun to play without forcing you to play its ranked multiplayer, though it is not entirely unique in this respect because many other CCGs boast of offering PvE campaigns as well.Newcomers to the game, especially those who have not played any CCGs before let alone Magic the Gathering, may find that the skill ceiling in this game can be a tad bit high. However, for mid-core or veteran players, this game offers them an intriguingly stragetic and challenging gameplay that will make them doubt their loyalty to Hearthstone or any of their current favorite MMOCCG.
Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links
Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links is an MMOTCG that's based on the popular Yu-Gi-Oh anime series and card-dueling game franchise, which possibly is among the most sophisticated and yet well-made of all time. And as such, the learning curve for this game can be quite daunting to say the least and as a result, the game isn't a game for everyone nor that it tries to be.That said, the game allows you to not only go up against famous characters from the anime series, like Yami Yugi, Seto Kaiba, and Joey Wheeler, but also duel other players in real time. Unlike the 40-card decks that most CCGs (including the previous Yu-Gi-Oh games) use, decks in this game only have 20 cards... and not to mention, these decks are presets linked to the character that you use. So in other words, there is no deck-building nor a character of your own to customize. This actually provides a certain amount of challenge since players will be forced to mold their own play styles to the decks present in the game.
Some may say that Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links doesn't really live up to the franchise as the game is very obviously "toned down" (in terms of complexity rather than difficulty) to fit it for the average mobile gamer. But if you really think about it, these changes are all necessary just to turn this amazingly intricate game into a mobile game. So, all in all, we'd recommend this game to fans of the Yu-Gi-Oh series and players who are curious to find out what this card game franchise is all about.
