Suitable for the start of the new Hearthstone season, developer Blizzard announced the good news that more than 70 million players are dueling with cards. As the landlord says so beautifully when logging in: "There is always a free place by the fireplace!"
At the same time, Hearthstone has set a new record of simultaneous players with the release of the "Journey to Un'Goro" expansion.

To thank all fans for their support, Blizzard is giving away 3 “Journey to Un'Goro” card packs. Every player who logs in from now until the end of May receives this. This also applies to newcomers who are just starting out with Hearthstone. Perhaps this is the perfect opportunity to encourage family and friends to get on board and give them a small starter bonus.

The making of Hearthstone

Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft was created as a hobby project by a smaller team at Blizzard. But it quickly developed into an absolute giant in the card game genre. As fans of the collectible card game Magic the Gathering, the developers at Blizzard wanted to create something similar, but with more beginner-friendliness. Avoiding the pitfalls other publishers stumbled upon in implementing card games was an important goal. For example, with Hearthstone there is no way to intervene during the opponent's turn. Each player also receives a mana crystal every round. So it doesn't happen that you lack the resources to cast spells.

This makes the game much easier for newcomers.

Hearthstone was released in March 2014 for Windows and MacOs. Versions for Android and iOS have also appeared, so that you can play comfortably from the couch or on the go. In general, it is a so-called FreeToPlay game, i.e. to play for free. By investing real money, you can expand your own collection much faster.
