Ready for Magic Research 3. These games are freaking amazing. Has a ton of depth, requires a little skill other than "sit and wait". You can manually do some stuff, or automate it. It is so freaking well put together.

It's simple and complex at the same time. One of the few games I can also call AFK as it will provide you with stuff when you are offline. Pretty fun and addictive in its own charming way!

Probably the best incremental game I've played. The genre gets a bad reputation because of all of the scammy freemium mobile incremental games, but Magic Research 2 is completely different and shows how good the genre can be. I hope there's a sequel.

The core of the game is still exploration mode. Exploration mode still sucks. Needs an option toggle to multiple spell damage by 1000x so exploration mode isn't bad. See comment attached to this review for much better incremental games recommendation.

It seems like a simple game at first, but it has great depth in terms of mechanics and unlockable upgrades.

A relaxed but fun game, great to play in the background and with a surprisingly satisfying story to slowly introduce mechanics to the player

Great Idle Game. Highly recommended. No bullshit microtransaction, no waiting forever and it has a nice feeling of closure once you've completed it.
Magic Research 2 iterates on the prequel, changes a few things, but keeps a lot of the core the same. If you enjoyed Magic Research 1 you will like 2. I really like a lot of the "hidden stories" like unlocking some of the elements. Another big improvement to Magic Research 2 is the fact there's very little tedium. One thing I felt was lacking in 1 was how long it took to get resources to build buildings. 2 fixes this by having an optional "modern" mode which limits you by a new currency. This makes the game more about making choices and less about just waiting.
If Maticolotto makes a Magic Research 3 I hope they decide to flesh out the narrative more. I want actual characters with names. Maybe a game designed around not having an idle currency and instead balancing it all around always playing? Maybe a sort of open world design to exploration with a world map? One thing I also really find lame narrative wise is the retirement mechanic. Someone in the future just happens to live mostly the same life but somehow gets improved by your choices. An example as something that'd work better would be some sort of magic artifact that brings you back to a specific time, but inheriting memories.

Great idle game - respects the idle part, while rewarding active play. What a gem! Good balance of easy to get into, and nice idle management. Definitely recommended if you like idle games!
