SLACKERJACK - Astral Masters
Then buzz it up

Sometimes we feature Slackerjacks because of their irresistible gameplay or bold new approach to the online game oeuvre. Sometimes, though, we just feature games because their names sound a bit porny.
And that's where we introduce you to today's Slackerjack - Astral Masters. Not to be confused with seminal decade-old Ron Jeremy-starring Ass Masters series of dirty pornos, Astral Masters is either a lot better or a lot worse than that, depending where you sit on the crude moral spectrum we've just constructed in our minds. Astral Masters is a sort of Magic cards-based game, where you have to build up the strongest possible collection of spells and creatures in order to to smash up wizards and whatnot. What really pushes Astral Masters ahead of the pack, though, is the ability to take your collection of Astral Masters cards and pit them against any friends of yours who are playing online. We haven't got round to playing Astral Masters online with our friends yet - they tend to lose interest after we've explained "no, not Ass Masters" to them - but judging by the high game ranking that Astral Masters got, we'd expect that it's pretty rocking.
