Artifact is a modernized and digital version of Magic the Gathering set in the DOTA universe developed by Valve and Richard Garfield, the original creator of Magic the Gathering.

Pros

  • Extremely polished.
  • Extremely high skill ceiling.
  • Gameplay is demanding when you want to play well, a thinking man’s game.
  • The draft mode can be played for free unlike any other digital card game on the market.
  • Cards have real (Steam Wallet) monetary value (I’ve made 250$ so far just by playing the game).
  • Fully voiced flavor/lore text for each card.

Cons

  • Constructed play is significantly inferior to draft play although this hopefully will be remedied when new sets of cards are released.
I’d recommend Artifact to anyone and everyone interested in a deep and interesting competitive card game.
