Via similarly arcane puzzle magicks, you can carry an infinite number of similarly colored spheres at a time. You control a little jester character at the bottom of the screen and grab drops using mystical vacuum powers. Rather than dropping to the bottom of the screen and piling up, columns of colored, spherical "drops" flow in from the top of the screen. %Gallery-175748%For the uninitiated: Magical Drop is what former developer Data East (may it live forever in our memories) billed as an "action puzzle game." It's an appropriate description: the game is as much about speed and seizing opportunities as it is about matching similarly colored spheres. At this point, I think I've been patient enough. "You know how rough game development is, so cut them some slack." Besides, I was familiar with the myriad issues the game encountered simply being released at all.Īpproaching two months after the game's release, MD5 is still riddled with online play bugs and missing some features. "But Golgoth is a small developer," I said to myself. But as said patch saw delay after delay, I began having a difficult time justifying my decision. Developer Golgoth promised a major patch to fix many of the game's issues since its release and, in good faith, I decided to wait until the patch hit before I wrote my review. The fact that this was released in 2012 and I'm only reviewing it now isn't due to laziness on my part. The reason I'm disappointed isn't because Magical Drop 5 is inherently a bad game, but rather because it's an unfinished one. I've been a fan of this weird, underappreciated little puzzle series for many years, and I have been eagerly awaiting the latest sequel since it was revealed at E3 2011. But as a testament to my oddball taste in gaming, I'd list my biggest disappointment as Magical Drop 5.
