Here are some opinions on Magi, taken from various websites and magazines.
It's always a pleasure to come across games like Magi - bold stabs at
innovation that move away from the copycat norm so often
associated with the indie game circuit.
Overall: 78%
Magi is a good strategy game surrounded by role-playing elements. The character
creation options are powerful, and they can drastically alter your approach to
the game. The strategic gameplay is solid, and once you unlock some of the more
advanced spells, Magi becomes great: trying to outwit your opponent and take
advantage of their shortcomings is what strategy gaming is all about. Magi is a
fairly unique combination of role-playing and strategy and it's recommended for
fans of either genre.
Overall: 6/8 buy it if you like the genre

I have really enjoyed playing and reviewing MAGI; the concept is fresh and the
implementation of it has produced a game that finds itself without a lot of
direct competition. It looks and sounds good, and is easy to learn and easy to
control. Not only that, the game is quite addictive, and you'll find yourself
staying up way past your bedtime ensnared in the old "just one more battle..."
trap.

I'd like to pretend this was a 'casual' game, and I could pick it up, play for
a quick 10 minute duel, and put it down, but the truth is, every time I pick it
up it turns into a compulsion to play match after match.
Overall: Well Done
Although this game is fronted by an extraordinarily generic name, the
game play is anything but. It differs from the usual, run of
the mill role-playing games as there is no game world to
explore here and no itemization of any kind. The strategy
aspect of the game is also unique, featuring its own brand of
game mechanics.
Overall: Try
Its gameplay can be pretty addicting, particularly trying out new combinations of spells and stats; there's a deep strategy to it. It also has some of the best particle effects I've ever seen anywhere, and the game overall is very polished.
