MageTrain is a quirky combination of Snake and roguelikes, coming soon on Android and iOS

Prepare to embark on a magical journey with MageTrain, a captivating mobile roguelike that promises to revolutionize the classic Snake gameplay upon its launch next month. Developed by Tidepool Games, this free-to-play title masterfully blends auto-battler mechanics with strategic positioning, offering an engaging experience that's both accessible and deeply strategic. Pre-orders are now open on both iOS and Android platforms.

MageTrain draws inspiration from the beloved Nimble Quest, expanding on the idea of guiding a chain of heroes. In this game, you'll lead a magical train of warriors through arenas teeming with enemies, where the placement of each hero is crucial for maximizing their attacks and steering clear of fatal collisions.

Upon its debut, MageTrain will introduce nine unlockable heroes, each boasting unique abilities that vary depending on their position within the train. Whether leading the charge or providing support from the back, these heroes offer diverse tactical options. Players will navigate through eight distinct dungeons, confront 28 enemy types, and harness 30 different skills to forge formidable team synergies.

The game adopts a roguelike structure, featuring a path-based system akin to Slay the Spire and FTL. Each run brings randomized challenges, opportunities to gather gold, power-ups, and upgrades, allowing you to refine your strategy. Every defeat offers a lesson, ensuring that each new attempt feels fresh and exciting.

In MageTrain, strategic positioning is paramount. While heroes automatically attack, you must skillfully maneuver your ever-growing train to evade dangers and optimize your battle formations. The longer your run, the more powerful your heroes become, but beware—a single misstep could end your journey prematurely.
