Battle Mage Academy
A downloadable game for Windows
Join the Academy
Welcome to Terramas Academy - You have been accepted into the most regal & famous mage school in the world. Here you will learn the ways of the Magi: Building spells from cards, calling & summoning creatures, spells & walls.
The Story Mode will be added down the line, allowing you to build relationships with other Mages at the school. There you will learn spells and progress at a fixed rate for balancing. Until then you will have the battle mode...
Make any Scenario
Enjoy the Battle Mode - Face off against COMs or local friends in this turn-based strategy card game. Summon a variety of creatures, spells & walls to outlast your enemy Mages. The battle is won when all enemy Mages (1 or 2) are defeated. You can also face COMs against each other and treat the game as a turn-based battle simulator.
You may create custom Mages and define your own battles in the Battle Mode. Set names and levels of Heroes to create whatever scenario you can imagine. Level Creatures into Heroes to gain them new abilities & attributes...
Use Cards to Cast Spells
Cards are the Mage's mana - Every turn you draw a standard amount of cards, Humans gain +2, Orcs gain only +1. Each race has their own feature, Humans gain extra base mana, while Orcs start with more health.
Build spells by selecting the Spell Tablet and providing the required mana, or simply click the Cast button to auto-fill with the best available mana. There are 6 types of mana: Water, Air, Fire, Earth, Spirit & Royal. Spells are made much like a Poker hand, pairs, flushes & straights. Build your deck to best accommodate your Mage and forces...
Build your Force around Elements & Themes
Form your Strategy - Use things of the same element for greater effect. Water is best for mana, Air is best for speed, Fire is best for damage & Earth is best for health.
Use some combination of Blessings & Hexes to empower allies and weaken enemies. Along with casting spells you may also choose to "Pick" a single card: Value cards Bless your allies with a random Blessing or stat boost, Knight & Ranger cards call a single basic unit, lastly Spirit cards restore mana & Royal cards restore health...
Campaigns to come
Turn-based Grand Strategy Maps - After I've added more content for the Battle Mode, I will add the Story Mode as different campaigns of greater strategy elements with multiple fantasy maps to explore. I'll be adding one scenario map at a time, maps inspired by that of the Heroes of Might & Magic series.
You must convince Cities & Forts to join your side by solving little quests, OR seize the place by force! Fight beasts and solve side quests to level up your Mages & Heroes. Obtain precious resources to build more improvements and hire units that are better than summons...
Adventure awaits!
