Card games are alllll the rage these days, and Elder Scrolls aren't about to leave that money on the table. In this Elder Scrolls version of card-sanity, each player beings with a deck between 50 and 100 cards and begins the battle. Each player starts with three cards (drawn from that deck) and one "magicka", which you use to deploy cards. To offset the advantage of taking the first turn, the second player also starts with a jeweled ring in play that can be activated once per turn to gain one additional magicka three times during the game. Each player gets one additional magicka at the start of their turns thereafter.
In this crazy expansion (see what I did there?), there are all-new cards, Dementia and Mania lane conditions, Double Cards that appear as one before splitting into two separate cards, a new gameboard and more.
Isle of Madness is the fourth expansion for The Elder Scrolls: Legends and is out now.
"Say goodbye to your last sliver of sanity, Sheogorath’s realm of chaos and calamity awaits you."
Here are the latest patch notes:
Animation, Visual and Audio Effects
- Tiny Dragon’s 3D model no longer looks broken when animating from the opponent’s side of the playmat.
- The Prince of Madness premium card back no longer has the broken golden sheen spread across the art.
- Seducer Darkfire’s chosen cost is now rendered in white. Future fix to increase the size on mobile is forthcoming.
Gameplay
- Sheogorath will no longer be so easily tricked by certain play styles!
- Sheogorath will no longer be so silly as to use his own Wrath after using Memory Wand during The Final Battle: Parts 1, 2 or 3.
- Seducer Darkfire now prevents prophecies of the chosen cost from being played.
- Creatures affected by a max health debuff are now properly considered Wounded in all cases.
General
- A deep pass has been done on memory usage for min-spec mobile devices, which should solve a large portion of crashes and hopefully some of the lag spikes players have been experiencing.
- Fixed a crash that occurred when the player would cast Madness Beckons while Mushroom Tower was in play, giving Betray to a Playing Card and then trying to use said Playing Card.
- The title “The Heretic” will now properly unlock after the player uses Heretic Conjurer to transform 50 creatures into random Daedra.
- The title “The Sadist” will now properly unlock after the player sacrifices 30 creatures.
UI
- Improved support for Android’s back button navigation.
