Magic Seeds - Where's the Magic?

Lets face facts, Alice Greenfingers was a huge hit in the casual game market. Why, I don't have a clue as it sure didn't float my boat, but as many of you have pointed out, I apparently have no idea of what constitutes a fun game.

The success of Alice was sure to bring about the "jump on the bandwagon" crowd of casual game creators searching for a quick buck. But just when you thought the garden clone games had come to the end of their life cycle, Magic Seeds is released.

Instead of Alice, your new heroine is Jane. Other then the change in name, it's hard to tell any difference. This game confirms that the designers and producers of games in the casual game market feel that the market is populated with consumers with very short memories. And the sad part of that statement is that they are probably right.

Have faith casual gamers, the summer will soon be here and traditionally better games soon follow when the kids are no longer in school.
