The game is The Magic Circle (Are you confused yet? It's going to get weirder), the reimagining/rebirth/resurrection of Ishmael "Ish" "STARFATHER" Gilder, a visionary in the world of game development. That's it, no fancy 'chosen one' backstory-except that there is, because, as the Player, you're the only one that can bring the game to completion. Without its story, The Magic Circle would be a nigh-incomprehensible game. The Magic Circle's Story Goes Beyond The Game The Magic Circle is the first game from Question Games, a team comprised of developers who have worked on titles like BioShock, Dishonored, and South Park: The Stick of Truth, making the game's commentary on the downfalls of artistic genius, good game mechanics, and rabid fandom biting and all too true. You have to finish a project left in limbo by its creators, turning a half-formed experience into a fully playable one-it's a game experience unlike any other, and packed to the brim with self-referential humor and excellent voice acting to round out the experience. The Magic Circle turns that feeling into a game. Anyone who has ever backed a game through crowdfunding or early access knows the pain of waiting for what you're sure is going to be your dream project as developers struggle to honor their artistic vision and remain under budget. The Magic Circle is a game that could only be made in today's Kickstarter world. Only in The Magic Circle can you play a game within a game within in a game.
