Lately I have been looking at interesting apps in the Google Play store. Among the subjects I was looking at there were a few apps for the Trading Card Game: “Magic the Gathering”.  There were a few alternatives however I decided to focus on the app that had the highest rating since the app with the highest amount of downloads had a lot of negative reviews.

The most important feature people look for in a Magic the Gathering app is of course to keep track of their Life. However it can be annoying to keep increasing and decreasing health by 1. The reason why this is a problem is because of decks that focus on gaining life such as lifesteal. On the other hand there may also be turns in which a lot of damage needs to be subtracted at once. Therefore you need to include a way to change the health totals with bigger increments. I added this in the mockup with the possibility to add or remove 5 health with each tap.

Poison Counters:
Another important statistic people want to keep track of is the amount of poison counters on a player. Because a player with 10 poison counters will lose the game. I need to make another mockup with a better layout to add in poison counters.
