Whereas all of MTG:BG’s predecessors were a literal translation of the CCG to a computer screen, Secret Level went a different route. This game is unlike any other one with the franchise’s endorsement. (See the Magic: The Gathering node for a more detailed history of the CCG and a tribute to the Microprose PC game, which has a sort of “ cult classic” infamy.)


The franchise endorsed a few video games before, but most were subpar. It became quite popular in a short period of time, and is still widely played all over the world.

Magic: The Gathering was introduced to the public in the early 1990’s as a collectible card game. Title: Magic The Gathering: Battlegrounds
