Ingress vs Magic: The Gathering Arena
Ingress
Ingress is one of the world's first augmented reality game that uses Google Maps as a core part of its gameplay. The predecessor of games like Pokemon Go, Ingress, lets you side with either "The Enlightened" who embraces the energy and wants to use it, or "The Resistance" who refuses to let the foreign force taint our humanity, in a heated conflict over the control of a powerful yet mysterious force unearthed by a team of scientists in Europe.The game will have you tap on various sources of the energy to acquire items to aid you in your quest, deploy advanced tech to capture territories for your faction and work cooperatively with other players from your side to advance the goal of your faction.
Ingress is the first of its kind to completely transform the way you see the world. The way the game seems to merge seamlessly with the real world makes the game more relatable to its players, allowing them to really feel as though they are a part of the action rather than playing the game through an avatar like a traditional RPG.
Magic: The Gathering Arena
Magic: The Gathering Arena is a spin-off. free-to-playgame from one of the most popular trading card game worldwide, Magic: The Gathering. In many ways, it's very similar to Magic: The Gathering Online since they are both basically the same games with the same rules. However, when it comes to attractiveness, MTG Arena definitely wins hands-down.Aside from having superior graphics, it has plenty of exciting animations, screen shaking, and sound effects to keep you engaged as you play. The gameplay may be standard but all of these extras do make a noticeable difference. In fact, with all the bells and whistles, the game is certainly well-packaged to be ported to the mobile platform.

The free-to-play game may not be flawless but at least it is not a grind to play, has a fun gameplay, and has plenty of room to expand and grow. If you're a fan of Magic: The Gathering, you'll want to give this game a try.
