- Form a powerful team of magical warriors
- Nine unique heroes available at launch
- Roguelike mechanics inspired by Slay the Spire and FTL
MageTrain introduces a bold spin on classic Snake gameplay, launching next month on mobile platforms. Crafted by Tidepool Games, this free-to-play roguelike blends auto-battler dynamics with strategic positioning, delivering an accessible yet deeply engaging experience. Pre-orders are now open for iOS and Android.
Drawing from Nimble Quest, MageTrain expands the concept of guiding a growing chain of heroes by adding more characters, dungeons, and an intricate skill system. Your mission is to navigate a magical train of warriors through enemy-packed arenas, strategically placing each hero to optimize their attacks while avoiding fatal collisions.
At launch, MageTrain offers nine unlockable heroes, each with unique abilities that shift depending on their position in the train. Some shine at the front, while others bolster the team from behind. Players will explore eight dungeons, face 28 enemy types, and harness 30 distinct skills to craft dynamic team synergies.
The game embraces a roguelike structure with a path-based system reminiscent of Slay the Spire and FTL. Each run delivers randomized challenges, letting you gather gold, power-ups, and upgrades to shape your strategy. Every defeat offers a chance to refine your tactics, making each attempt a fresh adventure.

Strategic positioning is crucial. While heroes attack automatically, you must guide your growing train to evade hazards and optimize battle formations. The longer your run, the stronger your team grows, but one wrong move could end your journey abruptly.
