MageTrain is a quirky combination of Snake and roguelikes, coming soon on Android and iOS

Author : Aiden Mar 27,2025

Prepare to embark on a magical journey with MageTrain, a fresh take on the classic Snake gameplay, launching next month on iOS and Android. Developed by Tidepool Games, this free-to-play mobile roguelike melds auto-battler mechanics with strategic positioning, making it easy to pick up but challenging to master. Pre-orders are now open, inviting players to join the adventure early.

Inspired by Nimble Quest, MageTrain elevates the concept of guiding a chain of heroes, introducing a diverse roster of characters, intricate dungeons, and a robust skill system. Your mission is to lead a magical train of warriors through enemy-laden arenas, meticulously positioning each hero to enhance their attacks and avoid fatal collisions.

Upon its release, MageTrain will offer nine unlockable heroes, each possessing unique abilities that vary based on their position in the train. Whether leading the charge or providing support from the back, these heroes will navigate eight dungeons, confront 28 enemy types, and harness 30 different skills to forge potent team synergies.

The game embraces a roguelike structure reminiscent of Slay the Spire and FTL, with each run presenting randomized challenges. Collect gold, power-ups, and upgrades to refine your strategy, ensuring every attempt feels fresh and exciting. Each defeat offers a lesson, allowing you to improve and adapt for future runs.

Mastering strategic positioning is crucial; as your heroes auto-attack, maneuver your growing train to evade hazards and optimize your battle formations. The longer your run, the more powerful your heroes become, but remember, a single misstep can end your journey abruptly.
