The Price of Magik is the third game in the Time and Magik trilogy.
Gameplay
Sequel to the previous game; Myglar the Magician, guardian of the Crystal, has become insane and is draining its energy for his own use; he must be defeated before it is exhausted.
John Sweeney for Page 6 said "this adventure is excellent value for money. Congratulations on another great game, Level 9."[4]
Amtix said "No doubt the game will be another smashing success. It's just a pity that all their imagination seemed to be exhausted in well hidden ideas and nothing was left to beef up the plot or flavour the atmosphere."[5]
Keith Campbell for Commodore User said "as with all Level 9 games, one can only say, 'Their best yet!'"[6]
Rob Steel for The Games Machine said "There is nothing to bind the adventure together, it is simply a number of rooms containing unexciting creatures, clues to one of the 18 spells or nothing of interest."[7]
"... further proof of Level 9's position as the leading UK adventure house... Everything in The Price of Magik is for the best - plot, parser, graphics, and above all the execution of the game."[8]
