An excellent sequel to the original Magic Research. It has a decent balance of grinding, automating, idling, and active battling. The best part is that, like the first game, there's an engaging story where the game mechanics make sense and there's a finite end. I finished the game at 99% completion after about a month, and I feel accomplished and that it was time well-spent (in comparison to a "traditional" idle game that you play infinitely until it becomes a chore).

Just finished the game (medal and all). Fantastic game. Had me hooked from start to finish, which took just under a month. So refreshing to play an idle game that actually ends and isn't designed to squeeze you for money and ad revenue. If I have to find something to nitpick, I found the story writing to be rather poor. Many of the major events seem shallow. Regardless the mechanics and design of this game are top notch so an easy 5/5. Looking forward to more from this talented dev!

Like it's predecessor, this game is a stand-out in the Idle/Simulation genre. practically every component has a purpose, and it is just a joy to play. I recommended it to others who play games like this, and it always goes over well. I recently heard that there is going to be mod support for the game. I am deeply interested, and picked up the PC version to look into trying out the SDK there before mobile. Extremely exciting!
