Nov 18, 2012Terribly buggy on launch, and compared to MD3 half the content is missing (no puzzle, no hermit, no high priestess etc). In short: no configurable controls, painful default layout, atrocious graphics here and there, weird characters in labels, overflowing text problems, stupid AI (even with the hardest mode), long load times, unusably broken online play, just to name a few.

Jan 10, 2013There's the potential for a great competitive puzzler here, but the missing features, along with the iffy odds of actually connecting to an online game without something getting mucked up, make Magical Drop 5 impossible to recommend.

Dec 6, 2012Magical Drop V had a lot of promise. With a simple mechanic of matching three orbs to clear a board, you wouldn't think the developers could mess that up, somehow, they did. The AI is all over the place, with frustratingly hard difficulties to laughably stupid, easy difficulties. The online play would have been great if it weren't for the bad lag, and the game in and of itself would have been a really fun time if it hadn't been so sluggishly implemented.

Nov 15, 2012If nothing else, Magical Drop V succeeds in featuring one of the most busted English translations I've seen in years. It's the closest the game comes to offering some genuinely entertaining '90s nostalgia.
