Magic Portals

Gather the elements. Open the portals. Outshine your rival.In a world where raw magic drifts on the wind, the old portals lie dormant — waiting for a mage with the patience to coax them open. Each turn you reach into the swirling Animus and draw the elements of creation: Air, Earth, Fire, Life, Shadow, and Water. Channel them into your crystals, feed them into sleeping portals, and watch the gateways blaze to life one by one. The first archmage to bind their power to seven portals brings the contest to its end — but raw count is never enough. Only the sharpest planner walks away with the highest glory.Magic Portals is a fast, elegant card game of elemental drafting and tactical scoring. Easy to learn in a single match, deep enough to chase for a hundred more.────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────Draw the AnimusAt the heart of every turn is the Animus — a shared pool of elemental energy that every mage draws from. Pull symbols one by one and decide how far to press your luck: stop early and play it safe, or keep drawing to fuel a bigger play. The elements you gather become crystals, which you place onto the symbol slots of waiting portal cards. Match a portal's full requirement and it ignites — claimed, scored, and yours.Six true elements flow through the Animus — Air, Earth, Fire, Life, Shadow, and Water — alongside rare Wildcards that bend to whatever you need most.────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────Four Colors of MagicBlue — Attunement. Permanent portals that teach a chosen element to act as a wildcard for the rest of the match. Open them early and every future play gets easier.Purple — Power. Pure, demanding portals worth the highest raw points. No tricks, just glory for the mage who can pay their price.Green — Foresight. Quiet portals that score nothing now but multiply at the very end — rewarding you for the elements you hoard and the portal colors you collect. Plant them early, reap them late.Yellow — Sorcery. Instant bursts of magic: conjure crystals from nowhere, place them anywhere, rearrange the board, or tear open extra portals on the spot. The improviser's school.Layer the schools together — Blue to fuel, Yellow to accelerate, Purple for the heavy haul, Green to cash it all in — and a clean engine starts to hum.────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────Open the PortalsBuild your tableau, complete portals, and chase the bonus rewards that crown a well-rounded strategy: extra points for finishing whole color sets, and escalating rewards for the sheer number of portals you light up. Reaching seven completed portals triggers the final reckoning — then every Green effect resolves, every bonus is tallied, and the mage with the highest score is named victor.There's no hiding behind luck here. The Animus is shared, the board is open, and every point is earned by the choices you make.────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────Game ModesSingle-player vs AI.
