Episode 198: Magicka
Manage episode 208832214 series 60637
This week, Gary and Kole conjure up some mixed praise for Magicka, a student project turned indie darling. But here's the hangup: while the core idea of this game is unlike anything we've seen before, its execution falls flat at almost every turn. The writing and humor don't add much to the proceedings, and the game is still a technical mess seven years after its release.
So, yeah, the mixture leans pretty heavily toward the negative. Someone make a better game out of this core idea!
