Fun game with a great prestige and magic system. Didn't play the first one, but as its own game well worth the purchase if you like incremental games.
★★★★★Daniel Tye· Dec 2, 2025
Definitely the best incremental game I've ever played, and a worthy successor to the first. It manages to ride the line between active and idle gameplay perfectly and is the perfect blend of incremental and RPG elements. 10/10 would recommend.
★★★★★Brandon Grill· Aug 29, 2025
Magic Research 1 was already one of the best mobile incremental games and this one brings it to new heights. No microtransactions at all, once you buy that's the game.

My electric pilgrimage is not showing up in my quest list. Retirement screen says pilgrimage is "unlocked but not completed" but there is no way for me to complete it! It's been days, already restarted the app and can't find anywhere else to report this. Please reply, I don't want to delete this game.
★★☆☆☆Chris Srt· Sep 22, 2026
Honestly... This game has positives, but I can't recommend it. This way miles more a pvm game than an incremental to the point where anything but killing monsters and their drops feels just about useless and irrelevant in comparison. I'm personally not a fan of this, I do get the appeal of this to some extent, but there are problem with that as well. Simply put... You always feel unbelievably weak, and you pretty much always are. You cannot have a heavy pvm oriented game where you are often weaker

Extraordinarily boring. Barely a game, barely entertaining. The idea of repeatedly "retiring" and playing this whole boring game repeatedly is exhausting. Anyone who plays this avidly debases themselves with this slop. I'd ask for a refund but the couple dollars or whatever this cost isn't remotely worth my time to stop and try to recover.
