- Questionary, Question
The Magic Circle is a delightful puzzler brimming with creativity.
A dark comedy about the creators of unfinished games, starring James Urbaniak (Venture Bros, American Splendor), Stephen Russell (Thief Series, Skyrim), Ashly Burch (Borderlands 2, HAWP), Karen Dyer (Resident Evil 5) ... and YOU. Can you out-think the game gods? Can you ship a game from the inside?

The Magic Circle Review
Although its mechanics are not upbeat enough to have you engaged for hours at a time, the story is interesting enough to say something, however niche this message is.

A memorable trip into game design and development hell, The Magic Circle's only sin is that there isn't more of it to play around in. What is here is storytelling and gameplay intermingled with expert care, bringing the player on an intellectual thrill ride that should be seen by all.
