Little wizards throwing all kinds of spells at each other in an attempt for gruesome magical murder? I'm all for it and apparantly so are the folks on Rock Paper Shotgun. They fooled around with Magicka: Wizard Wars and found it to be rather tactical. Which gives me a good excuse to make a newspost about it.

I trained a fully charged death ray on a wizard, barely able to target and move as the charnel negation sprang from my fingertips. He didn’t fight back though and why should he? I was confused. Everything was happening so quickly. As the wizard burst into parcels of meat, one of my team mates threw his hands in the air.

“Why did you kill me?”

There was no point in denying it. Not only had I spent around five seconds focusing the beam directly on his face, turning with all the grace of a sumo wrestler in a tub of molasses, I’d charged the spell up again to finish him off, very deliberately pressing the right keys in the right order.​
