Download Magic Pockets - DOS game

Bright colors, imaginative worlds, and wonderfully smooth animation make Magic Pockets an overlooked platforming gem from the early 1990s. You guide a quirky hero armed with magical pockets capable of storing useful objects and bizarre surprises while exploring levels packed with hazards and secrets. Every stage introduces fresh ideas, preventing the adventure from becoming repetitive, while the cheerful presentation keeps the mood light even after your latest encounter with spikes. Some jumps require careful timing, but frustration rarely lasts long because the game always seems eager to reward curiosity. Besides, discovering what can fit inside those magical pockets is half the entertainment.

Magic Pockets reviews

ACE magazine: "Right from the first the game's very tough - hair-tearingly, nailbitingly so at times - and it never lets up. and while repeated play does result in some progress, the game's difficulty far outweights its addictiveness, and you may jack it all in long before you reach the fourth world."

Computer and Video Games (1991): "It's easy to become lost in Pocketland whilst battling through the screens against enemies so cute it's almost a crime to dust them - and time flies as you venture just that bit further 'cos the desire to find out what comes next just grows and grows. Graphically it's excellent (even if we've already seen the style before in Gods) and the soundtrack, as usual, is superb. Better looking than Kylie Minogue and full of more features than Betty Boo's bicycle shorts, Magic Pockets is something to sing about. My advice is to buy this a bit quick - Do, do, do do..."
