I can’t stress it any more: iOS is the platform of choice if you’re a fan of modern (and classic) board games.
Summoner Wars is a fast-playing, action-packed 2-4 player card game. Players take on the role of Summoners: powerful beings who harness the power of mysterious Summoning Stones to lead their race to conquest on the war-torn planet of Itharia. These Summoners wield terrible magic on the battlefield, freezing their foes in place, draining their enemies of power, and even bringing rains of fire down from the heavens. But most notoriously, they summon their great race’s hordes of warriors to the battlefield, to clash in the never-ending struggle for supremacy. A Summoner is both mage and general, and must combine their wizardly might with clever tactics to defeat the enemy Summoner on the opposite side of the battle. [BoardGameGeek]
I’ve heard a lot of good things about Summoner Wars and do plan to play it one day (I still can’t get over the fun we had playing the latest edition of Wiz-War). Ah board games. I love thee. Especially when there’s a more affordable version on the tablet.
