Lost Magic

LostMagic Review

Strengths: Tons of spells. Multiple endings. Nintendo Wi-Fi gameplay.

Weakness: Extremely difficult and frustrating at times. Gameplay is somewhat short and repetitive. Bland graphics for a DS game.

It's clear to me that the developers put all of their attention on the idea of casting lots of different spells using by drawing runes on the touch screen. In that respect it does succeed, but they could've done a lot more to improve the presentation and flow of this game. Capturing monsters and using them in battle is a neat idea, but controlling them can be frustrating because all you can...

It's clear to me that the developers put all of their attention on the idea of casting lots of different spells using by drawing runes on the touch screen. In that respect it does succeed, but they could've done a lot more to improve the presentation and flow of this game. Capturing monsters and using them in battle is a neat idea, but controlling them can be frustrating because all you can really do is highlight them and tell them where to go and who to attack. The pathing is terrible, and you can't tell them to stop attacking. This game is difficult and cheap at times, and when the final boss is beaten there's nothing really to keep you from playing again.

Goes with the game

Strengths: Need to draw the ruins to cast the spells

Weakness: none

Have played it for 18 hours and I am not bored at all. I still haven't finished the game. There are 400 spells and I have only completed about 60 of the spells. My favorite spell is the fire wind ruin because it shoots a big wind disc and damages all the enemies in the area that the disc goes through.

Lost Magic

Strengths: tons of magic, online wifi

Weakness: poor use of stylus

Lost Magic is a RST from Ubi. The game uses the stylus for magic. While there are tons of magic, the decision to use stylus makes it hard to control. The use of wifi means that the game will have good replay value.
