Plus, who wouldn't want to give up on the hassle of accumulating real-life paper? Finding good collectible card games among a sea of
iOS games on offer can be quite the daunting task, especially given how many CCGs turn out to be boring, unrelenting cash-ins rather than innovative games that revolve around complex strategic concepts. Here's a roundup of the greats.</p> <!--break--> <h2>1. Hearthstone</h2> <div class="video"><div class="video_iframe"><iframe src="

this digital card game has crept into the hearts of CCG fans everywhere, especially those who have a familiarity and affinity with its Warcraft aesthetic. The game has also been lauded for its careful implementation of multiplayer interaction; there are only a few phrases on offer that you can direct towards your opponents, and none of them are salty.</p> <ul><li>Free - <a href="

There's a card-collecting element central to the game, of course, but you'll also need to use mathematical tactics to beat the game's bosses. The multiplayer component of Calculords has been "coming soon" for a while now; until then, the campaign can help you level up your math powers.</p> <ul><li>$2.99 - <a href="

Heavenstrike Rivals, yet another CCG) features an army-building strategic component its predecessor lacked. Other than that, it's a similar game with a more fantastical skin laid on top of it.</p> <ul><li>Free -

http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/07/CardCityKnights_iOS_screenshot.jpeg?itok=GuKQyCmG' />[/url]</p> <p>Like Calculords, Card City Knights lacks a multiplayer component, but this iOS title has no known plans to include the option. The game is more of an adventure RPG with collectible card game mechanics mixed-in: The in-game universe features a lot of folks who are super-into a fictional card game, and predictably enough, you'll have to compete with them all in order to gain traction in this virtual world.</p> <ul><li>$1.99 - <a href="
