The long-lived CCG Magic: The Gathering has finally transitioned to iOS in the form of Magic 2013, or, to give it’s full and mostly unused title, Magic: The Gathering — Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013. The Duels of the Planeswalkers franchise have focussed on bringing the game to consoles and home computer, and now has spread to iOS as well — well, to the iPad anyway. The game is free, but you’ll end up paying if you want anything more than the three basic decks and four opponents it ships with.
Here’s the official rundown:
