Master of Illusion becomes Magic Made Fun and gets UK release date
You'll like this...
Late last year we told you about Master of Illusion, an intriguingly unique sounding magic-based DS game that's been out in Japan for a while but just got a US release at the end of 2007.
And now it looks like Nintendo will be publishing the game in the UK, too. A new title was announced today for the game's European release, so that Master of Illusion will magically reappear as Magic Made Fun, and a release date of March 14th has been confirmed.
The game has you performing 20 different magic tricks, all explained in cartoon cut-scenes beforehand and ranging from simple card-based affairs to more spectacular David Copperfield-esque elephant vanishing ones.
As you can see from the screenshots, it features those annoyingly effective tricks that have you picking a square or number, subtracting other numbers from it then moving left, right, up and down a few million times until it correctly guesses your original number.
Additionally, in the US the game came bundled with a special pack of marked cards which the game then taught you to use – presumably we'll be getting them too.
Prepare to amaze (or bore to tears) your friends with your new-found magical talents. And forget Manhunt 2 – if any game's going to be inspiring thoughts of sawing people in half, it's this one.
