Ascension

A lot or a little?

Parents need to know that Ascension is the official mobile adaptation of the deck building card game, Ascension: Chronicle of the Godslayer, and is available for download on iOS and Android based mobile devices. Players choose their deck, made up of more than fifty hand drawn cards, and either battle solo against computer opponents or against human opponents via asynchronous turn-based online multiplayer matches. The game can be confusing for newcomers, even after playing through the included tutorial. Although fighting monsters is a factor in the gameplay, the violence isn't shown onscreen outside of red flashes to indicate combat. The base game is free to download, though multiple expansion packs are available for purchase via the in-app purchases.
