    Summoner Wars

    Designer: Colby Dauch
    Publisher: Plaid Hat Games

    Summoner Wars box

    We named Summoner Wars our number 1 two player game a few weeks ago and for good reason. With nearly 20 different factions to play (including six right out of the box), and dozens of ways to customize your decks in this 2-player grudge match, Summoner Wars is a brilliant combat style card game.

    Mage Wars

    Designer: Bryan & Benjamin Pope
    Publisher: Arcane Wonders

    Mage Wars

    Where Summoner Wars streamlines and speeds up miniature-style card combat, Mage Wars makes it more complicated. Games can range from 1-2 hours, not including time to setup your spellbooks, customize your deck and layout your strategy. This is a brilliant game for those that want to truly put their own personality into every fight.
