I have a copy of mage wars arena that I love quite a bit. However I struggle to get it on the table. Because it's a 2p game, I have to rely on my partner being interested in playing it. Till now, I've had no success. Just to be clear, my partner is a boardgame nut.

Do you all experience the same ? If yes, how do you satiefy the mage wars arena itch ? Any other games that's similar in vibe but is easier to get on the table ?

I don't have any great advice but I am curious about your partner's feedback, what is it that they dislike about the game? Is it this game in particular or card battlers in general?

I think the struggle to go through the rules and getting bored in the process. It's funny to me because mage knight wasn't as much of an issue but this somehow isn't working out.

That's fine by me. I'm just wondering if there are other games out there that might be more of a success. Aeons end is an option I'm thinking of
