In Magic Research, you are the headmaster of a newly-created institution of Magic with one goal: to learn as much as possible about this power and get enough fame to be able to compete, and win, the prestigious competition of schools: the Tournament of Magic. But what will you discover along the way? * Cast over a hundred different spells with various effects * Research magic in various magical schools to discover new, surprising ways to use this power * Accumulate resources and build the school campus * Manage a team of researchers and apprentices to lead your school to fame * Discover tons of hidden new features - when will you unlock the next one? * Find over eight dozen secret storylines with permanent, game-altering effects * Restart the game and make faster progress each time with retirement bonuses * Optimized both for iPhone and iPad * No ads! This is the full, complete game. You can transfer save data from the demo by using the Export / Import Save feature available in both the demo and in the full game.}

On the new iPhone, when I switch away from the game and back, I can swipe menus but can't interact with any buttons. Makes playing a bit of a pain right now. Love the game, one of the best idle game experiences on the market for any platform. The systems are complex but not overly so, the pacing is really well-done, and it's designed in such a way that you don't need to consult a guide which I love. The apprentices system is a great way to give the player a way to automate the game, and the way it's designed means you're always building toward something (adding a new buff/boost, improving your resource collection, etc). Researchers are a great way to passively improve less important or hard-to-train schools. Not having to actively train evocation on weak enemies each run, or constantly enable buffs to slowly train enchantment, makes it far easier to focus on the interesting parts of the game loop. I'm a sucker for games that provide an in-game mechanic for gaining meta-information. Spells to reveal quest requirements or game tips are very cool and provide an important avenue later game to progress without being tied to a wiki page.

I just completed the main game (have not 100% it yet) and have spent over 56 hours actively playing. This game is an amazing incremental which holds your attention through. It requires active play, but gives you “time pieces” as you are idle, which allows you to speed up gameplay, or do time warps. This allows you to constantly feel like you are actively playing, while allowing you to speed through some grinding parts. Highly recommend the game, easily one of my top 3 mobile games ever. Now onto the second game!

A game that makes you appreciate idle/ semi-idle games that aren’t built around ads and micro-transactions. Though despite being generally an idle game, you never feel punished for playing it actively (at least not in my experience yet). The basic interface ends up being neither a positive or negative as despite being stripped down it still sometimes feels clunky or unintuitive. Despite the over-saturation of idle games, this one still manages to stand out.

This is a really fun idle game. You can do both idle and active play, [active being faster than just idling] the actual boss fights are a challenge when you encounter them for the first time and you really have to take stock of your resources and see what items you can craft and spells/buffs to try and beat them. Give this game about an hour, if you like it after that. Buy the 2nd one because it’s more along the lines of a remaster rather than a 2nd game. Very fun stuff. NEED NUMBER 3 😄

Well priced, feels like something I’ll reset and come back to in a few years.

The best couple dollars I’ve spent on the App Store. Really well thought out progression and resource management. I’m a long way from finishing but I definitely will!

I’m glad I bought the game. Even with the two problems I’ve had it’s worth the money. The first one was mentioned by someone else, text running off the page so I had to quit the game and come back as I couldn’t get to the buttons. I figured out that I had to lower the size of my text on the entire phone to fix this. It’s a hassle but if I hold it very close then put the text back up when I finish playing I’m okay. The second is that I’ve had to retire twice because my wood started counting back instead of forward so I couldn’t keep hold of any wood. I’m still trying to figure out what triggers that, and if anything makes me stop playing it will be that. It’s too bad because it’s a fun game otherwise.

Good progression, worth the money. Needs some work with UI/UX.
