Four year old Wizard101 by KingsIsle is a perennial favorite among gamers of many ages. There are a metric ton of reasons why, some of which we'll investigate in today's column. See which things we chose as our first five really cool things about Wizard101 then add your thoughts in the comments. One of the most gratifying moments in Wizard101 is the first time your character casts an epic spell. Whether it’s a giant Heliphant or an Ice Giant or an arrow shooting Centaur, the spells in Wizard101 are the best in the business. Even low level spells contain their own special form of awesomeness. There are just not enough good things to say about the cinematic quality of the spell effects in the game. Every other MMO out there seems positively dull by comparison.

You mentioned the spell effects, but I would rank the combat system itself as being one of the neatest things about the game. To my knowledge there's simply nothing else quite like it in the genre. Pure turn-based systems themselves are something of a rarity in MMO-space. I'd also note that they take the reading-angle one step further by having voiceovers for much of the on-screen dialogue, so even if a child is just learning to read they can follow along. <3

Originally posted by Fendel84M Yes I agree the turn based combat is a blast. I think that might be my favorite thing about it, myself. Makes me hope the Fallout MMO will be turned based like its SPG's were, originally.

We really like Wizard 101 and Pirates 101, they have both been great games to play with our daughter. Wizards plays well a bit younger than Pirates, but both games are great for teaching tactics. I suspect both play really well in developing critical thinking skills too. I have to second Suzie's point about housing. It floors me just how much depth the purchased housing has. The duel arenas in the houses are just too cool. Ryahl - writer of eye-bleeders FFXIV Fansite \| TSWGuides Follow me on Twitter

The trouble with said spell effects is that the game wants you to sit and watch them every single time, which makes combat slow to a crawl. Or you can turn them off so that it won't display them on your screen, but that doesn't speed up combat any. 3 seconds of picking a move followed by 30 seconds of watching it play out gets old.

I have got to say that I have been gaming for a very long time and I use to always look forward to returning to WOW for my fix but Wizard 101 and Pirates 101 has done the trick. Wizard 101 is very challenging, the storyline is great and there are all the aspects that the bigger games have, plus I don't ever have to worry about immature content or chat problems. I hope they keep developing this title as it has a lot to offer both for younger players and older alike.

The combat was really enjoyable in this game...Turn based doesn't get enough love in this genre as far as I am concerned.... Unfortunately Wiz101 has too many other issues that ruin that fun combat....If it had a better f2p model it could have had more success.
