Feature-rich Evil Brick Busting Fun
From the get-go, Runic lets you know that its designers have made some great decisions. It's all about magic, as you pick up potions of different colors and mix them on the fly (via the spacebar) to define which spell will be unleashed when you hit the right mouse button.
You game is automatically saved after each round, after which you enter a shoppe to buy more potions. More smart design decisions includes color-coding positive and negative powerups, no more "oops, I just shrunk my paddle", which is a welcome and logical addition. More amazing design? How about being able to continue play even after the round is done to pick up any coins or jewels that weren't part of the mandatories to finish the level. Nicely done
The absence of any kind of soundtrack is quite bizarre, but doesn't take that much away from the game altogether. Also, continuing from a previously saved game will re-enable tutorials upon first-powerup-pickup.
Definitely Fairy Treasure's evil brother, it also includes the feature of and ally in the form of a cupie doll, and getting rid of bricks as time goes by via some automagically launched missiles instead of fairies.
The thing is.. I got 39 levels in, and no boss characters.. perhaps the only evil dwelling here is the repetition. |

AWESOME !!!
I am amazed by the amount of new things that this game brings into the scene of brick-busting games. The potions, the magic shop and the bosses are all new things that I've never seen before in this genre of games. This is a really great game ! Good job ! |

Runic - Awesome game!
This game is definately of Reflexive quality. Gotta be the best of it's genre I've ever played. Not only can you choose the level of difficulty , but you can also purchase power-ups to assist in winning the game. You can even choose to add opponents, if you're so inclined. It's one of the few games I've actually finished, and yet, I still keep playing. The angle of the ball is true, no wild shots or clumsy batting that makes aiming impossible. An all time winner in my book. Thanks, Reflexive, for sharing Runic with this addict. |

Could Have Been Better?? I guess not.
I guess this review wont mean a lot. I've already played Ricochet Lost Worlds and Ricochet Extreme. I guess after playing those games, this seems a bit out of sync.
There aint any music as far as I have played it. The sound effects are not that good either. The only two things I liked in this game were 1. It's originality and 2. U cud buy the powers u wanted.
Other than these features, this game was pretty boring. |
