Usually you can determine if the game is in the fantasy genre. There is a simple question: “Is there magic?” Some fantasy games don’t emphasize inexplicable activities when hitting the villain with oversized weapons, for example, while others employ magic through simple, static spell effects. Watch you, Final Fantasy.
However, in many fantasy games, Wipe magic is fundamental Explore and interact with settings. And sometimes, you can even develop your own inexplicable art.
Creating a spell is not important, even if you create a spontaneous spell when killing an enemy or create it carefully with an ivory tower. wonderful Fantasy game features. Let’s check out some of the most powerful, distinctive or just fun varieties this genre has to offer.

Fortuna
Creative Destruction
Action RPGs are about ingenious spellcasting with runes combined. Then you Use magic to explode people and buildings. Without mana limits, the only real constraint on your options is the spell runes you discover during execution, such as each rogue.
Fictorum is a bit of a one-trick pony, but it’s really fun One Trick Pony. It’s a bonus to completely destructive environments and villains for blowing up, making this a great game if you want to play Uber-Wizard to war.
This game is refreshingly sincere in its appetite for destruction and for me it definitely hurts certain itching.

Two Worlds II
Carefully customize it
He plays a little like his brother in the Elder’s Scroll Add franchises, especially spell-making mechanics. In this game, you create a spell Combine cards inside the spell talisman.
Effects allow you to turn basic spells into summoning creatures, fusion of allies, and unleash enemies. The various spells that can be created this way are very interesting, but unfortunately you can equip them with three talismans at once.
This will ultimately hinder the magical system, but it is still a solid system and allows for quite some creativity.

outside
A meaningful sacrifice
The core concept of this is that you never level up. Until now. Your health is all of your health. Instead, you’ll find gear, find fascinating gear, and improve it by improving your skills (both the character and the player).
Learn magic outside, However, it is necessary Forever Sacrifice your health and stamina to earn mana. This interesting concept rewards you by accessing the game’s intricate on-the-fly spellcasting.
The more you sacrifice, the more you can cast major spells, but they are less durable than before. Is this cost worth learning the combination of spells to eat enemy souls and replenish mana pool?
Yes, probably.

LostMagic
Draw runes and make magic
This is probably a bit of a “deep cut”. Using the touchscreen of the Nintendo DS almost exclusively, summon monsters, give commands, You can cast spells by drawing various runes.
A spell is formed by drawing 1-3 runes. Each rune you learn has three layers, which cost more mana to create and cast more powerful spells. A spell is created in fluid form by combining multiple runes.
The final result is a unique, confusing cluster clock, which is a unique, chaotic cluster clock, for desperately drawing the runes as quickly and accurately as possible, so that the Zerg is not wrapped around by enemies.

Rudra’s Treasures
Spelling Bee of the Wizard
The second oldest game on our list is Hidden Gem, Squaresoft’s last game in the SNES era. Forgive you with the theme of Indian mythology Engrave a mantra from a letter to cast a spell. Yes, this includes certain four letter words that are not available here.
Unlike other combinational spell systems, Rudra’s treasure requires you to create mantras from battle rather than from the spot. Therefore, there is a strategic factor to choose which mantra to carve and equip.
Rudras treasures are also unique as they can spell mantras at any point in the game. Want an overwhelming damage spell? If you know the mantras, I’ll chop them out! Of course, at a low level, you may not have the required MP cast they…

Magicka
Team Killing is inevitable
Another “voluntary creation” entry is, at first glance, a comedic ARPG. This game vaguely resembles Diablo, But it focuses on spellcasting.
When you actually start playing, you can see Magica Confused spellcasting promotes unintended consequences. Because the original game has no mana limits or cooldowns, you can cast as quickly as possible by hitting the Q/w/e/r/a/s/d/f combination.
Single player is available, but Magica really shines in multiplayer. In my experience, the line between “co-op” and “PVP” is almost completely erased until they desperately revive each other to fight the game’s incredibly challenging bosses.
Or because they keep blowing their friends away in the butt mine.

Mystria’s Magician
Grow and magical growth
It’s a cute “Arriving Age” game with an incredibly deep spellcraft system. Like many games, spells are created by structuring multiple runes to form new spells.
Unlike Those games, Mystralia’s magicians It features a complex grid of interlocking effects Determine what the spell does. Even better, the effects range from the standard “blowing someone” to building a bridge, to fireballs bouncing obstacles, to pushing enemies (or moving them).
This adds almost a sense of “magic programming” to the game’s spell creation. Applying different runes is intuitive, but even so, it can have amazing results.

1987 |
The element combination spellcraft used in many games on this list is Invented by a dungeon master in 1987. Despite being released almost 40 years ago, Dungeon Master It’s an aging game like fine wine, featuring a magical system that stands out for its innovation and variety.
Nevertheless, it focuses on the dungeon master’s spell-making system in dungeon crawling, but still features a variety of support and utility magic. Invisibility, healing potions, and even the ability to see walls can be found by combining game runes.
It’s definitely a product of the time, but dungeon masters are worth checking out Afficionados that makes spells. Now, if you can run it on a virtual Dosbox.

Pixel-Physics Power
Something like illicit is a nightmare and addictive fusion Pixel-based physics simulator and Hinged spell construction. All pixels in the game are simulated. interesting The result of firing a spell.
And you’re going to fire a lot of spells. Because that’s the core game mechanic. Each run has the effect of developing new spells to combine together with gun-like wands.
However, due to the nature of the physics simulator, it is very It’s easy to accidentally lose a run because you cast a spell that’s too powerful. Do you send a bouncing projectile into the hallway? Hopefully it will knock out the support beam and not collapse the ceiling!
What makes Noita so addictive is that it can be used to solve puzzles using these same physics, reach new places, and, of course, killing the villains in unexpected and hilarious ways. Certainly, the game draws closer to Soulsborne’s difficulties, but the creative confusion wants more with every run.
It’s outrageous
The game featured crafts long before every RPG began packing crafts and survival elements. Their powers vary, but seductive, alchemy and spells are characteristic of the franchise.
But oh boy,
Morrowind’s The variety of base game effects and therefore the spells are my favorite across the franchise An open minded willingness to make you screw. Want to make a spell that only casts 4% chances to eat all your magicka? Certainly, go for it.
Effects range from simple buffs and damage spells to spells that are not seen in later installments such as flights and telekinesis. All effects can be combined with a single spell and can be modified by a sturdy parameter slider.
Chance to cast a spell is the percentage calculated based on the spell’s complexity and skill level. You can’t find the rigid “layers” you need to cast your cool new toys!
Want to drop a 30-foot fireball in the middle of a city that lasts for five minutes? Or strengthen your acrobatics enough to jump over maps around the world? Check out Morrowind.
