About Shaman Academy

Test your abilities in combat and magic on Shaman Academy. Each player draws 3 cards on game start, then you can play a different card per turn. The goal is to knock-out your opponent, whatever it takes! Types of Cards: Battle Cards - Used to deal damage to your opponent. Can be a Rock, Paper or Scissors type card. When the type Battle Card you played beats your opponent, he will not be able to play his Battle Card. Spell Cards - Used to cast spells for different effects. Some spells costs mana and some will give mana. Spells cards will give you a "Spell Defend" for protection from enemy attacks during the turn they are played.

How to play Shaman Academy

There is very little to learn before your first run. On desktop the arrow keys / WASD do the moving; the full mapping is in the table below. It fills the player in landscape, so use the fullscreen button on desktop and turn your phone sideways on mobile. Nothing is lost by trying something reckless once.

Why it is worth playing

Shaman Academy is easy to start and harder to master, which is the balance the best browser games hit. A browser game does not need to be more than that.
