XMage - Magic, Another Game Engine

XMage allows you to play Magic against one or more online players or computer opponents. It includes full rules enforcement for over 13,000 unique cards (26,000 counting all cards from different editions). Starting with Shadowmoor, all regular sets have nearly all the cards implemented (detailed overview).

There are public servers where you can play XMage against other players. You can also host your own server to play against the AI and/or your friends.

You can visit the XMage forum here.
