Slidemagi is a tactical game played on an isometric board where two Mages face off against each other. Each Mage brings a deck of collectible cards to the game, which they use to cast spells or create warrior units that will fight under their control.

The rules are simple: each turn, your mage can use one of their cards or move their units on the board.

- Using the cards, the Mage can perform offensive or defensive actions, either by casting spells or creating warrior units.
- Moving a unit on the board is done by sliding the row in which the unit is located and dragging everything on it. When the slide action ends, all the player's units in that row execute their action.



The game can be played in Adventure Mode (single player) where you progress by unlocking spells.

Choose your cards from dozens of unit types and spells to fight against your opponents in local or online multiplayer, ranked or friendly.

Slidemagi is a game with an original design, developed by BATOVI Games, a studio from Montevideo, Uruguay.

Features:


  • Tactics: Turn-based isometric tactical combat where unit position and actions are important.
  • Simple rules: Movement is done by sliding lines. All units move in the same way. When the unit ends its movement, it performs an action.


  • Mages: The Mages are the players. Kill the enemy Mage to win. After each move, each of the player's units performs its action.


  • Chains: With some units, a move can be performed by creating a chain of events.


  • Spell Cards: There are dozens of types of units and spells, which can be used and combined to design your strategy. Each type of unit performs a specific action. For example, Spiders throw a web that traps the enemy and makes them very vulnerable; Scorpions poison their enemies, etc.
  • Deck-Building: Before going into battle, select from the available spell cards, the set of spells you will bring into battle. The deck is shuffled and you have five spells available at once. Chance has its place.


  • Tombs: When a unit dies, its tomb remains on the field. Tombs and units limit sliding movement. This takes an important part in the strategy.
  • Depth: Other elements such as walls, holes, water, lava, trees and their combinations give the game enormous depth.
  • Many game modes: Local or online multiplayer, ranked or friendly matches. Adventure mode to unlock new spells.
