Wizard 101 Game Review

What would it look like if Harry Potter walked into the world of Pokemon? Well, Wizard 101 is great way to get an idea of what it would be like. The game is chalked full of magic cards that you will use in battle against the evils in the world. This is turn-based RPG that has a beautiful graphic battle scene for every move. Although, after a few battles you will become tired of the scenes that take up some precious questing time. To refill your energy and mana you have to walk into these little orbs everywhere which can also be a grueling task to take on if you are extremely low on either of these. Quests are done just like any other MMORPG out there... find a person with a mark over their head talk to them and go on about your day. One fine thing about the questing aspect is that the creators were nice enough to give us an arrow to lead us on our way so that we don't get lost trying to find the quest area. It does get a little confusing though when the quest is in a building because it will seem as though the area is on the opposite side of the building. The community is really pretty young, but they are all helpful except the few kids that just want to talk smack to everyone. This game can be enjoyed by all in the family, because of the chat filter that is pretty darned picky. There are a lot of regular non-profanity words that it will not allow due to them being used with other words to create the bad ones.
