Look, you either know Magic: The Gathering, or you don't. So you shouldn't need a reccomendation, but I'll say this about the 2013 duel of the planeswalkers shell. It's an improvement in most ways over the 2012 version. While they stumble a bit by removing some of the popular play styles from 2012 (archenemy WHERE ARE YOU?), and it's crippled in multiplayer by server lag, making the game often unplayable online, the single player game can't be faulted.

The single player game, turn based and fun, is a great fix for those M:TG players who want a computer experience that's actually like the card game.

I'd give the game 7/10 stars, and that rating would be higher if multiplayer was CONSTNATLY crippled by server lag, making every attempt I've made at the game, completely unplayable.
