It looks pretty cool, although it's hard to tell how you actually play..

Quote: This Spring, Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection is set to add another string to its bow with the release of new 'action-RPG' Lostmagic.

Developed by Taito, Lostmagic is an exclusive Nintendo DS role-playing game that lets you battle friends, wherever they are, over Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.

It features a unique 'duel mode' that lets you create a character and take it online to test your magic-casting skills and strategies against a real-life opponent.

In Lostmagic, designed by renowned art director Yoshiharu Sato, peace in the world is challenged by a new evil force. The only hope lies with the wizard Isaac and the seven magic wands left behind by their creator.

As Isaac you will lead hordes of powerful monsters into battle; each with a special skill that must be learned to gain the advantage in battle. Using the DS stylus as a magic wand, you can cast powerful spells from a selection of more than 350 combinations.

In the game's real-time strategic battles you can also use the stylus to control your units directly on the screen using a point-and-click style interface.

"Lostmagic brings role-playing games on the DS to a new level, capitalising on the innovative and unique gameplay abilities such as casting spells with the stylus and the global connectivity of the Wi-Fi mode," said Tony Kee, vice president of marketing at Ubisoft. "Ubisoft is proud to continue in its tradition of bringing cutting-edge games to gamers worldwide."
Wow, sounds very cool indeed. Like you said though, how do you control it all...? Turn-based would make sense, but the articles reads real time, hmmm...
This game could be great! I agree about the battles though, it says real-time strategic battles though how it will work with the stylus is not totally clear. It is sounding pretty cool though, cant wait to hear more about the game. ^_^
check out the pictures! it looks awesome!
Sounds good but roll on PSODS!
