Prepare to embark on a magical journey with MageTrain, a game that revolutionizes the classic Snake gameplay. Set to launch next month on iOS and Android, this free-to-play mobile roguelike from Tidepool Games blends auto-battler mechanics with strategic positioning, making it accessible yet brimming with depth. Pre-orders are now open, inviting players to dive into this enchanting experience.

Drawing inspiration from Nimble Quest, MageTrain enhances the concept of leading a chain of heroes through the introduction of a variety of characters, dungeons, and an intricate skill system. Your mission is to guide a magical train of warriors through enemy-laden arenas, strategically positioning each hero to maximize their attacks and evade deadly collisions.

At its launch, MageTrain will introduce nine unlockable heroes, each possessing unique abilities that evolve depending on their placement within the train. Whether leading the charge or providing support from the rear, each hero contributes to the team's success. Players will navigate through eight dungeons, confront 28 different enemy types, and harness 30 diverse skills to forge powerful synergies.

The game adopts a roguelike framework with a path-based system reminiscent of Slay the Spire and FTL. Each playthrough presents randomized challenges, offering opportunities to collect gold, power-ups, and upgrades that influence your strategy. Every defeat is a learning experience, enabling you to refine your tactics and embark on new adventures.

Mastering strategic positioning is crucial; although heroes auto-attack, you must skillfully maneuver your expanding train to avoid hazards and optimize your combat formations. The longer your run, the more powerful your heroes become, but a single mistake could abruptly end your journey.
