About this game

Warlock's Duel is a free turn based strategy game. Try your magic spell casting skills to out smart other players online or practice vs an AI bot

Two wizards duel in a battle of wits, casting magic spells at each other, bluffing and misleading each other ("Shadow casting").

This game is like rock-paper-scissors on steroids. Imagine what if a set of rock-scissors was a wizard spell of magic missile, and paper-paper-rock was a summon goblin. So in the Warlock's Duel game you have 6 gestures (not only 3), that make up 45 spells, which each warlock can cast with each of his hands!

Warlock spells are text words, where each word like 'SFW' (Summon Goblin) is a magic spell, and each letter marks a hand gesture ('S' for snap fingers).

Warlocks duel is also known as Spellbinder - the old strategy game that was published by Richard Bartle (1977) about a wizard battle (see Wikipedia reference below), and is integrated with the desktop version Waving hands by Ravenblack.

This is an open source project, in beta, built by the community.

Take your time
• Warlocks usually play only a few turns per day.
• For faster games you can play the single player mode, training against a bot, or play up to three games at the same time.

Somewhat confusing interface, made more difficult by the fact that for some reason the bottom of the window is cut off on my phone (Samsung A32). Once I understood the flow - choose spell, select target, confirm - I'm having a good time with it.

I never duel with waving hands, but when I do it's like wizard! This google app Adds an element of flair to what is otherwise a pedestrian interface;. Also, the Golem training sessions have been very much improved and they provide a quick tutorial for game play to starting characters!
