Skylanders Battlecast is probably one of the more entertaining turn-based card games that I’ve played. It's quick, addictive and strategic fun.
Skylanders Battlecast is an interesting diversion of the main game. The game's mechanics are easy, but they also offer some degree of strategy. The only real problem is the random mana, which can destroy even the strongest deck.
Look beyond the kid-friendly exterior of the Skylanders image, and you'll find that Battlecast has a very competent and meaty system that fuses pricy but non-essential cards with RPG ideas.
Skylanders brings us another incredible installment in the turn-based battles genre. It offers a great graphic design, but the price needed to get all the cards and its simple gameplay may not be liked by the players of games such as Hearthstone.
This new installment of the Skylanders franchise relies upon a solid and deep collectible card game. There are some interesting ideas here and there, unfortunately ruined by some over-simplifications in the design, that ultimately make the game a little boring.
A good start for Activision inside the world of collectible cards. Maybe a little too easy, but the road to improve this card-to-life game is wide and promising.
Battlecast feels like the card-game equivalent of two kids smashing Skylander figurines together until one of them is declared the winner.
