Regarding graphics and sounds, Magic Carpet 2 is mesmerizing. The game supports a greater number of sound cards than in Magic Carpet and ... the VR headset from Virtual IO. The sounds throughout the game are terrific with the wind blowing through the trees, conversations in towns, and the sound of waves along the shore. Even the humid caverns have a distinctive echo with water drops ringing in the surrounding silence. The music is in perfect harmony with the game and adapts to the situation when sudden actions take place for example. In normal mode, Magic Carpet 2 uses VGA graphics which may be changed to SVGA graphics by pressing a single key, but first make sure your machine is fast enough.

The Magic Carpet is a valuable tool for the art of leak detection. Portable, robust and easy to use, it has proved to be effective and reliable in use with several UK water companies. It is exceptionally accurate and has a quick response time. The unit is ... impervious to intermittent background noise and allows for single person operation. The Carpet is 1.5 metres long and has an array of sensors which use surface noise correlation to display any leak noise profile on a LCD screen. This enables a high degree of accuracy in pin pointing the leak position.

ZOOM "Magic Carpet provides a wonderful blend of first-person shooter and strategy game. You'll need both eye-hand coordination and resource management skills. You must know your spells and keep them programmed for easy access at a second's notice. You must learn to keep your eye on your castle, your balloons, your manna, and the other wizards, while simultaneously dueling with dragons. Captured by its spell, Magic Carpet will keep you busier than a Sorcerer's Apprentice."

The interface of Magic Carpet has changed a little bit to make the player's life easier. The map is still available by pressing ENTER during the game, but you can ... have it on the left part of the screen while playing on the right with a reduced sized window. It is quite useful and does not slow down the game at all. Another change is the spell menu which is accessible through the CTRL key. You can assign a spell to the left button mouse and another one to the right button very easily while playing with the game, which was not possible in Magic Carpet. The All-Seeing Eye displays the landscape of the realm with a view from above in which your position is always centered.
