Magic Workstation
Magic Workstation (or MWS) is a program created by Magi-Soft that assists in playing Magic: The Gathering over the Internet and maintains a searchable database of Magic cards.
Users of the free game start with a card set taken from a might and magic mini game.
Available game databases
Magic: the Gathering was the primary game that MWS was made for, though there have been several compatible databases to enable play of other card games such as The Spoils, VS System and the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game
Program Interface
The programs includes an option for players to create their own themes when playing. Themes typically change the look of the virtual desktop, card borders, text and sometimes avatars.
Registered users can also create custom sets for their game, using fantasy cards. For example, one player made a VS System set containing The Legend of Zelda.
Limited Formats and Tournament Play
Magic Workstation features a built-in sealed deck generator. However, this generator is flawed as players have no way of knowing whether the decks being played were indeed built from the randomly generated cardpool. Netdraft does not currently support MWS security codes, and as such, cannot be used effectively with MWS.
