Arrowhead Game Studios' Magicka takes the whole dungeon crawler experience and throws it on its head. Instead or rather dull gameplay and addictive elements such as loot and experience, it aims to bring us an interesting and addictive system for using magic. Take a look at the game as animator and composer Emil Englund guides us throw some of the basics in this upcoming downloadable title that is set to hit PC and consoles (hopefully, nothing official yet) this summer.
