Indeed ladies, what it up? Not So Magical Bugs Either way, this feel of complete randomness is rather frustrating and makes it difficult to enjoy the game. Perhaps the game was telling me I lost gracefully. I often would get an A+ grade losing a match but only get a D winning one and having a higher score. In addition, the scoring seems to be just as sporadic. Because of this imbalance, it’s easy to find yourself losing a match in less than 10 seconds after the start of a game. Your opponent may get four or five special magic spells (special attacks activated when popping a special colored ball) in a row to launch at you while you may never get a special magic spell at all the whole match. The only difference between Easy mode and Hard mode seems to be the number of levels you face. Any match can be incredibly tough or incredibly easy no matter what difficulty you’re playing, and this creates a constant feel of imbalance. This wouldn’t necessarily be bad if it wasn’t for the fact that both the AI and the grading mechanic are inconsistent and seem to be all over the place. It is very hard to say there is any strategy to this game at all other than trying to find the quickest chains and getting the highest combos. While this may seem like it would provide some form of strategy, it was very clear facing the AI that only a few patterns were truly effective while majority of them were not. The higher your combo score, the more lines that will be dropped on an opponent in the pattern that is unique to your character. Each character has their own unique Magical Drop Attack, where achieving chain reactions (popping several different lines in rapid succession) causes more lines to drop on your opponent’s grid. There are several characters to choose from.
The simple gameplay makes this game easy to pickup and learn. While the different modes do slightly change how the game is played, the same gameplay mechanic is used for all.Ī colorful cast of Japanese-like characters battling for their wish to come true.
The game contains a single player mode as well as three multiplayer modes which can be played locally or online, including Head to Head, Team Battle, and King of the Hill. To see who gets to make their wish, the kingdom has a tournament where players must battle each other by clearing their grid of marble-like balls by aligning 3 colored balls together causing them to pop. The Magical Drop is a powerful relic that grants its holder their wish once every ten years. The story and the gameplay are relatively simple. Does Magical Drop V succeed in bringing some old magic to a new generation of gamers or is the only thing it’s dropping is the ball?
