Hearthstone

Hearthstone takes the characters, creatures and atmosphere of Warcraft and turns them into a streamlined digital collectible card game. Matches are quick to understand but surprisingly deep once you start worrying about mana curves, card advantage and why your opponent somehow has exactly the card needed to ruin your carefully constructed plan. Each class has its own cards and play style, while decks can be customized extensively. The interface is polished, colorful and packed with little touches that make even ordinary cards feel lively. Beneath the accessible rules lies plenty of strategy, making Hearthstone one of those games that can consume five minutes, several hours or your entire evening before you notice what happened.
