The game holds some elements of captivation to it, indeed. Being another Card Game Morph, similar to some ways to Pokemon TCG, or Monster Rancher Card Battle, it has its own pulls and attrections to make it stand out fro the rest. For a gameboy game, the grafix are amazing, the ideals and gaming process as well as the plot are brillaint, and the conversations are side bursting. However, there are atl least two faults. Specific save points and pretty rotten music. Have not had the opportunity to beat the first shadow gyser, due to enjoying leveling up the Dream Creatures. *Wanders off to play more*
A MUST HAVE! especially if you like suspense and puzzles!

With the rising popularity of the Magi-Nation Trading/Collectible Card game, the guys and gals at I2 decided a vidoe game was in order.
The game itself is easy to learn, and quick addict. You are Tony Jones, a regular kid in our world. He gets bullied into retrieving crystals from a cave, and is transported to the Mooonlands. Once in the Moondlands, the Naroom people will explain how animite, rings, summoning, and dream creatures work. You explore a mass of worlds, each with their own unique elements, music, and creatures.
Magi Nation is a wonderful game. Although lacking in some aspects, it is still worth picking it up to anyone who is a fan of the card game, and even someone who is just starting out.
The music is beautiful. Tools werebrought out by Factor5, and did an amazing job with bringing out memorable tracks.
Gameplay is easy to learn. Although some of the menus have difficulting with scrolling and cancelling selections, they are easy to overcome.
Graphics are an interesting cut above, with short cut scenes that display chosen attacks and spells during battles. Up to four creatures can be summoned in any battle. Magi battles give a feel of boss fights, as well as a challenge.
Leveling up creatures is EXTREMELY tedious, and one of the only downfalls of the game. Energy consumption is insane when battling. But, no one ever said games had to be easy. Still, the battling system is generally unique in comparison with other RPG's.
4/5 stars is my rating. The game makes you think with plenty of puzzles, the music will be stuck in your head forever, and it is simply ingenious.

The game starts out good. It's pretty interesting, the graphics are good and being able to cast spells yourself is pretty cool. But then it seems to go down hill. The dungeons get repetetive and there aren't the many creatures to choose from. But as you go along everyone in the game hates you and it starts to get boring. It is very hard to find any guides if you get stuck as well.
buy it!

I dont want to ruin the story for you, but ill tell you this: you will never find a better game. The music is beautiful. I think they should sell it for a hundred, compared to this, money is nothing.

This is an awesome game, but the shadow geyser (it's kind of like a dungeon) bosses are really strong, and it's kind of boring bringing your strength up before you stand a chance. If it wasn't like that, I'd give it 5 stars!!!!
Pokémon is better.

The unfortunate problem with this game is that is that the capture system is a bit more random than in Pokémon. There's very little one can do to ensure the type of Infused Animite that one gets from a battle. Battling to gain experience is difficult when one needs to move on to the next area to level up fast. The single energy battle system means one cannot use up a creature's special attacks and expect survival. Fortunately the inns are free. The story line feels bland at some points. For someone who is good with strategic battling, this might be worth a look. But for true RPG fans, its either to dull or too frustrating. This game is either too easy, or too hard.
COOL GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
