Developed by Ludosity, Magicka: Wizards of the Square Tablet was originally going to be called "Wizards of Relatively Square Tablets" until everyone realized that was literally the worst acronym.

In bulletpoint form, the game includes:

• Spellbinding Spellcasting: Combine elements to create thousands of spell combinations
