Magi-Lines takes a bow
I've been reviewing Magi-Lines, one of ZingMagic's latest round of puzzle and strategy game conversions. It may not have 3D baddies or swooshing sound effects, but Magi-Lines is as brain-stretching as puzzle games go and it works superbly on every single Symbian-based platform.Posted by Steve Litchfield at 19:59 UTC, June 25th || 3 Comments
