    I was completely out of the loop when Magicka was originally released about a year ago. I guess that was a good thing at the time because it was released in a somewhat buggy state. As of now (February 2012), I am having more fun in this game than I thought I ever would. Magicka is a top-down (3/4 perspective) action RPG game. Unlike most RPG games, there is very little in the way of character creation other than selecting what robe your character wears. Their choice of wardrobe determines what staff/weapon they carry and that can have a bearing on what elements they are vulnerable or resistant to.

    The game has tons of pop-culture references and the dialogue spoken by the NPC's is a mixture of Swedish and Gibberish that sounds pretty funny if you ask me.

    Movement consists of left-clicking where you want your character to move to while you use the q-w-e-r and a-s-d-f keys to cast your spells. Spells can be cast in four different ways: 1. Cast on your... Read more

    Magicka not only downloaded quickly and runs great, I actually have enjoyed it a lot more than I expected. Its a real game of casting skill! Each spell has to be entered on the keyboard as a series of keystrokes and then triggered by in one of five ways: Cast out in front, cast around, cast on self, cast on weapon, or triggered with the space bar for special casts (named spells with distinct effects). Be warned, it takes practice and experimenting to find powerful combinations and get good at them but its soooo much fun as you get the hang of it. I've never played a game like it before. =]

    4.0 out of 5 stars Short but sweet, February 14, 2012
    This review is from: Magicka Collection [Download] (Software Download)
    Magicka is a short but sweet action RPG where you control a wizard from a top-down perspective. The campaign will take you around 6-8 hours to finish, and then there are arenas where you can fight against enemy waves or duel with other players. The matchmaking system is poor at best -- it's very difficult to get into a random public group. My advice would be to convince a buddy to pick up a copy and play online together, or enjoy the campaign solo.

    Lacking an experience/leveling mechanic, skill points, inventory, or currency, this game focuses on its unique combat system comprised of combining 8 elements: water, life, shield, cold, lightning, arcane, earth, and fire. After conjuring a mix of 1 to 5 elements, you release the spell in 1 of 4 ways: a projectile/beam/wall, a cast-on-self, an area of effect, or cast on your melee weapon (think enchanting). Want to make a rock wall that freezes enemies? Combine cold + earth + shield. Want to make a far reaching,... Read more
