Do you remember when games used to be hard? When most games were played on a console and were heart poundingly intense? Gameguyz, the makers of Magic Barrage clearly do. And they built the game to be a salute to what many people say was a better time in gaming. R2 Games remembers this time fondly as well and stepped forward as the publishers of this intense, some may even say manic shooter RPG.

Ok, hold on a minute. You're saying theres a game, from R2Games, thats not Pay2Win, and its not an auto-play click fest? Ok, I have to see this.....
Edit: Ok, went to play alittle. Didnt last, lol. Same old click to teleport everywhere. Auto fire, and auto targeting (Mouse can be on the other side of the screen, but the game readjusts your shooting to always hit the target). Sorry, I love the Realm of the Mad God throwback, but all the "modern" additions of autoplay really make it seem meaningless. The only challenge comes in the form of "bullet hell", and depending on your class, you have many ways to negate even that.
Fun for an afternoon if you have nothing better to do, or feeling nastalgic, but other than that, I wouldnt spend any serious amount of time, or money, into this knockoff.
This site has been 404ing and not loading for tons of people, check their forum for complaints.
I can't access the site let alone download the game, and have been waiting 2+ weeks for their site to work now.

old games were hard usually because they had very little else going for them. Some of the greatest games even during 8 bit era were easy when you knew what to do.
remember cheat codes? Sure, there's a few games that still have them, but back in the day they were much more common. I guess old school gamers must have been cheaters, based on some logic I see.
I didn't even have to try it to know that was a load of shit.
