Summoner Wars Online

I never thought this would be my kind of game, but having seen it mentioned so many times by Dice Tower personalities, I knew I had to try it. The app made an easy entry into this world, and now I’m hooked. We’ve purchased the physical game as well, and I find myself constantly thinking about the factions I’ve played.

My Coworker BigPerm kept showing me this game. I only play chess and didn’t really know what this game was all about. It was always confusing to see his games. I downloaded it and played. It’s a great game with so many layers. All the different factions have such great tricks up their sleeves. Well made game. It’s worth the time commitment understand the mechanics and enjoy the battles.

I have been a fan since 1e. 2e is even better and this digital implementation is a wonderful representation. Minutes to learn, lifetime to master. Play it and teach your friends.

I love the asynchronous games and the quality of the app. The free version doesn’t have ad banners and players get one deck at random and a weekly rotating deck. Honestly a great way to learn the game. And happy to pay Plaid Hat Games as a small Indy developer for the subscription when I have time to play more often.

It’s as if the developers have no idea why people play board games.

Summoner Wars is a great game and the app looks good and well implemented, though I am having technical problems on my iPhone 15. There is no sound, and parts of the screen are covered by the Dynamic Island. Could be my own stupidity not figuring out how to get around those issues, though!

Free to play was an excellent choice. I already subscribe to the new faction decks as they are published, but I was able to get my son and a friend to start playing on the app and now they love it! I will continue to grab the physical decks as they come out, but being able to play this easily and so often has been a dream come true. One of the best two player games around!

This game is incredible! There are so many factions to choose from and they all have incredible flavor! The cave goblins for instance have a champion unit that is a giant mole rat that is forced to destroy a unit every turn (friend or foe) or it will be destroyed itself! The strategy is incredible and the community is even better! The games are fun and fun you can take your turn at your convenience. It also seems like the developers are continuing to create content for it and I couldn’t be happier!

A small, tight and wonderfully solid 1v1 tactics game with a wide variety of interesting factions to choose from.

I love the game and the digital implementation is fantastic. However they clearly just ported the online version over to mobile and there are some clunky features that aren’t present in more polished mobile-first titles. I imagine they’ll only improve from here though.
