This game is a rare gem among mobile games. A great time killer and one that really satisfies my hyperfixation. I love the way afk progress is handled. Instead of progress while you're away, you earn "time pieces." These can be used when you come back to the game to speed up time and progress the things you want. One thing I'd love to see is a UI update for combat. At higher levels, it's easy to flood the quickbar with things you need and makes it a little messy. Overall, this is a must buy.

so many games try to control your time with dailies, missable boosts, and paid time speedups. Magic Research is a game you buy once and you get an interesting experience for a few weeks. There isn't the grandiose art of the many idle games on the app store. This feels like a simple adventure, you build up supplies, gear, and magics. When you restart it has an actual purpose. It isn't the simple get bigger numbers. In game events give permanent buffs for the rest of the game. I realy liked it.

I've been an Incremental game fan for years ever since I first played Cookie Clicker. I can say for certain that Magic Research is the best paced, the most balanced, and the best at delivering pure dopamine to your brain. The visuals are nothing to write home about, but the UI is highly functional and there are many options in this that are not available in other idlers. Time Pieces especially make passive play actually viable which is fantastic.
