Lost Magic, FOUND UNIQUE GAMEPLAY!

User Rating: 9.3 | Lost Magic DS
By humantarget00 | Review Date:
Lost Magic has been described as a cross between a role playing game and a real time strategy game, and that is accurate to an extent, but really it's something entirely new. The touch screen spellcasting system of combining rune symbols to discover new spells along with the fun of collecting and commanding monsters creates a special blend of gameplay that really grabs you. With just a little more fullness to the feature set, this could have been an all time classic.

Long story short, this game is just unique and there's nothing else quite like it.

Pros and Cons:

+Easy to Learn/Hard to master
+Great depth of play
+Rewarding casting system
+Online WiFi Multiplayer Dueling

-Too limited movement A.I.
-Hard to select a particular unit in a crowd
-Hard to know what you're doing wrong on some missions
