Mage Wars Academy

Mage Wars Academy features gameplay similar to Mage Wars Arena (née Mage Wars) with two mages in head-to-head combat to see who will be victorious.

Mage Wars Academy is a two-player starter set that features two mages, two spellbooks, and a new "boardless" gameplay design that's more portable and fast-playing than Mage Wars Arena. All of the spell cards included in Academy are compatible with those in Arena.

Dairyn stepped up to the rustic wooden door which bore the sign “final exam”. Until now, he and his fellow students had been barred from entering this room. He drew a deep breath and slowly opened the door on its ancient creaking hinges. Upon opening the door, he was astonished—it was just like the great arena in Westlock…only smaller. He stood at one end of the room and watched as his fellow student—and now opponent—entered the room in the same manner, and with the same awe as he had. They both had prepared for this, they both had studied, and they both knew that this was to be their biggest test at the Academy. Instinct immediately told him that his master would not call “halt” should things go badly for him…

You have reached the climax of you studies as a “Mage in training” and now stand ready to face off against other students, those of an entirely different school and ideology!  How will your battles turn out? Your actions will determine who is the victor… and who tastes bitter defeat!

Mage Wars® Academy introduces an entirely new, stand lone game to the exciting Mage Wars® universe of Etheria.  Similar to Mage Wars® Arena, players will take on the role of dueling Mages, attempting to use their cunning, wit, and tactics to defeat their opponent by reducing their life to zero. Completely different from Arena though, Academy is played without a board, in a much faster time and yet still offers strategic choices, tactical combat, and exciting game play!
