description Magic Research Overview

Magic Research is a text-based incremental role-playing game where players assume the role of the headmaster of a newly established magic school. The gameplay revolves around casting spells to gather resources, researching new elements, and automating production to expand the school's influence. Players must strategically manage their arcane discoveries to defeat increasingly powerful enemies and uncover hidden lore. It is part of the idle game genre, appealing to players who enjoy gradual progression, optimization, and prestige mechanics.

help Magic Research FAQ

What does retirement do in Magic Research?

Retirement restarts most of the current run while granting bonuses that accelerate later progress. It is the game's prestige system, letting the headmaster revisit early research and production with stronger multipliers and retained unlocks.

Does Magic Research have combat or only resource automation?

It combines incremental resource management with equipment, spells, dungeons, and auto-battler combat. Progress toward the Tournament of Magic requires both building the school and defeating enemies and bosses.

What are Storylines in Magic Research?

Storylines are discoveries triggered by particular actions, upgrades, spells, or progression conditions. Their rewards can persist across retirements, so experimentation is a major part of advancing the school.

Is Magic Research connected to Magic Research 2?

Magic Research 2 is a separate game by developer Maticolotto rather than an expansion or required continuation. It keeps the text-based incremental RPG concept but introduces a different story, spells, enemies, and progression structure.
