Play LostMagic (E)(Endless Piracy) Online

Game Overview

LostMagic is one of those DS games that actually makes the touchscreen feel essential—you draw spells by sketching runes, and if you mess up the symbol, your fireball might fizzle into a sad puff of smoke. At first, I kept accidentally summoning goblins when I meant to cast a healing spell, but once you get the hang of it, chaining spells together feels weirdly satisfying.

It’s not just spell-flinging, though—you’re also wrangling little monster squads like some kind of frazzled fantasy general. The strategy bits sneak up on you; early fights are chaotic, but later battles force you to actually think about positioning and which creatures counter what. The story’s pretty standard "save the magical world" stuff, but the mix of RTS and frantic spell-doodling makes it stand out. Just don’t expect your handwriting skills to improve.
