Magic Shop... It is David Copperfields version of Diner Dash


Ok, I admit it, I am not much of a fan of time management games and that is obviously evident from prior game reviews. In fact, I just hammered Cake Mania 2 in my last review. And then along comes Magic Shop and the only thing I am being served at the diner is crow.

It never ceases to amaze me regarding the cleverness the creators of causal games can display. In another of those "why didn't I think of that" moments, the guys and gals that put this one together took too winning game formulas and put them together to possibly create a whole new game genre. A match game and time management game in one! Duh! Why didn't anyone come up with this one before? Now the time management games can be made tolerable to my tastes. There is new meaning in keeping the customer satisfied. Now you are not forced to serve burgers and build cakes and wash dogs in an endless stream of redundancy. With this offering you match colors in order to satisfy the customers. Yep, the hybrid just may be the start of an entire new category.

If for no other reason then to see the combination of two types of games made into one, this one demands a download.
