This action-RPG does have something up its sleeve though, and this could be the sleeper hit of early 2010. You and three friends play good wizards tasked with stopping the hordes of evil from freeing a bad wizard. You all have similar potential, but there is a pay off in pursuing different magical tracks. Some spells can interact with each other. You can quench fires with weak water, use strong water to push enemies into harm's way. There is a wide variety of spell types, and it's up to the player to discover how many of them work together.
As Arrowhead Game Studios turns 15, join us in celebrating its past and learn how its first game Magicka influenced Helldivers 2.
I played Magicka, but I never realized it was the same dev as Helldivers. Makes plenty of sense considering how much friendly fire is in Magicka lol
"The founders of Arrowhead Game Studios (the team behind one of the world's biggest international game successes with the game "Magicka") is now investing in the Swedish Gaming company Mind Detonator whose business concept is to capture talent at a very early stage and build the next generation of gaming developers far from the big cities." - Arrowhead Game Studios
