Play Dragon's Magic (Japan) Online

Game Overview

Ever stumble across a game that feels like it shouldn’t have been forgotten? Dragon’s Magic on the SNES is one of those—somehow, it never made it big outside Japan, which is a shame because it’s this weird, frantic mix of puzzle and action that just works. You play as a wizard, but instead of casting spells the usual way, you’re flinging colored orbs to match them up and wipe out enemies. It sounds simple until you realize how fast everything moves—you’ll be scrambling to clear the screen before it’s overrun.

The art’s got that classic SNES charm, all bright and detailed, and the gameplay’s got this weirdly satisfying rhythm. One minute you’re lining up combos, the next you’re dodging fireballs from some dragon that decided now’s the time to ruin your day. It’s the kind of game where you lose track of time because you keep telling yourself, “Okay, one more try.” If you’re into retro stuff that actually holds up, this one’s a trip.
