Title: Magical Whip: Wizards of Phantasmal Forest (DSiWare)
Post by: KingDrool on August 25, 2011, 06:11:14 PM
Wasn't sure where to put this, but I thought some of you might be interested in this game I just downloaded on my 3DS. You can also download it if you have a DSi.

It's basically Parasol Stars with Witches, instead of Bubby and Bobby. And it's got a bit of that Magical Chase art style. Considering those are both pretty good Turbo games, you guys might like it. Best part? It's only $2.

Here's a review with some screens:

Yeah, I noticed this game as well.  I was actually thinking it reminded me of Don Doko Don.  Either way, it seems Taito inspired!

I got this one a few weeks ago too, well worth the $2.  Not in the same league as Parasol Stars, that should be made clear, but it's a hell off a lot cheaper.

Well that was depressing, dissapointing and unoriginal. I have tons of videogame ideas simular to that but, I lack the programmer qualities for it.

If the artwork was you know airbrushed, and not sooo commercial looking, I would probably buy the game. No really I don't mind, big doied eyed characters, but when it is done to death, has no dimension, or life and not by me, it makes me angry.

Also slimes........yeah slimes are soooo coooll lets make that the most obvious first enemy to set against a couple of younings lost in a forest, who carries magi sticks.

Also why call it magical whip???? Those are canes,darling, canes. Makes me think of that SNES rpg which was remade for the SNES I am not going to mention the name.
