Our take

The sheer amount of systems on offer, spells, transmutation, a wizard party, storylines, reads like a team that actually cares about the genre rather than churning out a generic idle clone. A 4.76 rating on only 50,000 installs suggests the people who find it love it, but discovery is clearly a bigger problem than quality here.

About Magic Research 2

Experience the long-awaited sequel to Magic Research!

In Magic Research 2, you are a rookie wizard with a single ambition: to find or create the Philosopher’s Stone, a legendary magical item that is said to be able to cure any illness. As you do so, you will learn more than you ever imagined about Magic and about the world around you. What kinds of adventures await you?

  • Use your arsenal of more than 120 distinct spells to make progress
  • Study the Elements! Learn new ways to use Magic in your path to mastery
  • Transmute (magically craft) over 250 different items to help you on your journey
  • Control a team of Wizards that will cast Spells for you
  • Enjoy a deep, semi-automated combat system as you make your way through dozens of areas to explore
  • Discover tons of secrets - many of which will change the way you play the game!
  • Encounter over a hundred distinct Storylines with powerful bonuses along your journey
  • Restart the game and make progress faster each time with retirement bonuses
  • Over 60 hours of addictive gameplay - with a clear ending! (Or perhaps more than one…?)
  • Optimized both for phones and tablet devices

What we like

  • substantial stated depth: 120+ spells, 250+ craftable items, over a hundred storylines
  • sequel to an established incremental RPG with presumably refined systems
  • semi-automated combat lets the strategy layer carry the game instead of tap fatigue

Watch out for

  • incremental RPGs are a slow-burn niche that won't hook players expecting immediate action
  • small install count relative to its high rating suggests limited reach so far
Verdict: A deep, well-regarded incremental RPG for genre fans, just don't expect broad appeal outside that niche.
