Get ready to command a magical battalion of mages with the upcoming release of MageTrain, a game that promises to revolutionize the classic Snake gameplay. Set to launch next month on virtual storefronts, this free-to-play mobile roguelike from Tidepool Games blends auto-battler mechanics with strategic positioning, offering a game that's easy to pick up yet brimming with depth. Pre-orders are now open on both iOS and Android platforms.
Drawing inspiration from Nimble Quest, MageTrain expands on the idea of guiding a chain of heroes through enemy-filled arenas. Your mission is to lead a magical train of warriors, carefully positioning each hero to maximize their attacks and avoid deadly collisions. The game introduces a variety of characters, dungeons, and a sophisticated skill system to enhance your gameplay experience.
At its launch, MageTrain will feature nine unlockable heroes, each with unique abilities that vary depending on their position in the train. Whether leading from the front or supporting from the back, each hero brings something special to the table. Players will navigate through eight dungeons, confront 28 different enemy types, and utilize 30 distinct skills to forge powerful team synergies.
MageTrain adopts a roguelike structure with a path-based system reminiscent of Slay the Spire and FTL. Each run offers randomized challenges, giving you the opportunity to gather gold, power-ups, and upgrades that will shape your strategy. Every defeat is a chance to refine your approach, ensuring that each attempt feels like a fresh adventure.

Strategic positioning is crucial in MageTrain. Although heroes auto-attack, you must skillfully maneuver your growing train to dodge hazards and optimize your battle formations. The longer your run, the more powerful your heroes become, but a single misstep can end your journey abruptly.
