Magic Academy II Review

Magic Academy II takes you into the world of magic and intrigue, where logic and foresight will solve complex problems and quick thinking save the world. There are 23 chapters filled with hidden object scenes and mini puzzles. Items within scenes can be used to interact with the scene itself.

Magic Academy II is an interactive adventure game where you play as Irene, the newest and youngest member of the Magic Council. It's Irene's first day as a member and already there is trouble brewing for our young heroine. Her older sister has been accused of stealing a powerful magic book that can summon demons to wreak havoc on the earth. Help Irene find the missing magic book and clear her sister of any wrong doing.

The game itself is quite good, yet could annoy the heck out of some players. Magic Academy II will probably prove to have as many haters as there will be fans for this game. There is a lot of dialogue which will turn some off, yet the dialogue itself combines with the game play, and is quite amusing for those who don't mind listening to a story. Another annoyance is the fact that if you quit the game halfway through a chapter, when you come back to the game you must start that chapter from the beginning.

Graphics are good and the puzzles just challenging enough to keep you occupied without being too easy or too hard. There are elements within scenes that can be moved, like pulling a curtain or opening a door, but strangely, sometimes they have no bearing on the scene at all. At times you may try a puzzle and feel you can't complete it, but you will probably need to find or complete something else, or click on an object to find more about it within the game, before you can complete that particular puzzle.

Overall Magic Academy II takes the player on a deep and fun filled journey where logic is the main ingredient needed to finish. As mentioned before, this will have it's fair share of those who don't like it and those who will enjoy it immensely. Personally, I really enjoyed the experience while playing to make this review and would recommend Magic Academy II to anyone who likes a good story and a lot of game interaction in the mold of Return to Ravenheast. It's not near as good as Ravenhearst, but was a nice and long game which gave the brain a good workout.
