And would multiplayer PvE battles work similarly to the MTG Archenemy 2012 mode?īoth of these would be fine I enjoyed them enough in the MTG games. The “puzzles” aspect sounds really interesting, but it also sounds like it could be like a gussied up version of the “Challenges” in the MTG Planeswalkers digital games (where you’re given a particular situation with particular cards that must be played in a specific way to beat the challenge). I’m all over Hex based on what I’ve seen, but I’m still curious how the MMO portion is going to work. It is free to play, and they’ve stated that the only things they plan to sell are booster packs ($2 each) and tournament entry fees ($1), meaning that it should be possible to play the entire PvE content for free.įor anyone on the fence, the Kickstarter rewards are extremely generous relative to the cost of packs after the game launches, with the biggest highlight being the Pro Player tier, which offers a free draft tournament entry (normally $7 including three boosters) every week for life.ĭaily updates can be found at the project’s Kickstarter page, and there is also a selection of articles on .īut it’s a TCG MMO!

Mechanically, it looks to be closely modeled on Magic, but with some interesting differences in the resource system and other mechanics and a heavy dose of cards that are only possible in the digital realm. Hex Entertainment is excited about the future of HEX: Shards of Fate and enthusiastic about the many new features we have in store for the game.The discussion of Hex has been monopolizing the last couple pages of the Kickstarter thread, so I’m giving it its own home, since it’s clear that: A) The Kickstarter has more than succeeded, being at 160% of its goal with 23 days still to go and B) We have a critical mass of interested players here who are going to be interested in talking about it for a while to come.įor anyone who missed the announcement, Hex is a new online TCG from Cryptozoic, the company behind the successful World of Warcraft TCG.
