Minecraft developer Mojang is gearing up for the release of its card battling game Scrolls, starting with a beta next month.

The PC beta will be offered at a discounted price at the end of April, according to a Polygon interview with Jakob Porser, Mojang co-founder and Scrolls designer. Porser says that the company wants to take a similar trajectory as Minecraft, which not only released as a discounted beta, but was also well supported after players' initial purchase.

For more, check out the full interview with Porser over at Polygon.

I don't know about this it looks ok but I think minecraft was their one hit wonder.

Err... this doesn't look very good. Sorry. Not interested.

And besides, too many card games out there.

Just the screen shot reminds me of OgreBattle skirmishes, which could be interesting.

Huh. Is this some sort of Elder Scrolls spin-off?
by dodgyboyy Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 11:55 AM

about damn time, my excitement for this is long gone, still going to try it though for sure

Is this the game Bethesda wanted to sue over cause they used "Scrolls" in the title?

It looks... alright.

Didn't Bethesda and Mojang have a legal dispute over the name?
by Zachary Pligge Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 01:19 PM

I'll jump into the beta, why not! If it's half as good as Minecraft, it should be fun.
by Robertman2/Kira Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 02:05 PM

Nice!

Mojang, you legend.

I really enjoyed Minecraft, and I have been waiting a long time for Mojang's next game. I don't like card based video games, and this looks kinda boring too. Hopefully Mojang can expand upon what they did with minecraft a create a sequel.

Will this come packaged with Skyrim's DLC? that would be great.
by ogreenworld Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 05:21 PM

Looks like a rip from might and magic.
by John Wrek Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 06:06 PM

Aha. Intriguing.
by Salt AU Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 06:11 PM

1985 called and want their game back. Someone should wake up Notch and tell him its 2013.
by Elliptic Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 08:06 PM

Honestly, I get the copyright battle and why they sued Mojang. The first thing I thought of when I read the title was "Elder Scrolls?"
by Tim Gruver Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 11:42 PM

Nothing against card-battling, but more console games please!
