type in Magic Carpet 2 Abandonware (or something like that) into Google and you'll probably find a download with enough diligence.

You press Shift and L at the same time. This is probably my all time favorite game or at least top 3.

I played this a looooong time ago as a kid, watching this video is bringing back some memories. It actually looks like it could have some very fun and dynamic multiplayer if it was remade today.

I remember playing this game as a kid back in the day and not having a clue what the fuck was going on. To be honest I'm still a little confused.

I wish there were more games like this around. Cool stuff.

Until now I thought this game was a figment of my imagination. You have no idea the level of nostalgia I'm experiencing right now.

To a gander kids, because this game is from a time when Molyneux still made actual games! Shame that magic has completely disappeared :(

Anyway, great video! It's been a long time since I played this, and it was definitely nice to see it back in action like this.

Nice video, but if i remember there was a way for self-destruct my own castle, is that true? i don't remember the way for do that...

A truely amazing game for the time. A remake is well overdue.

@Kastigador19 MC 1 was out for the ps1 when it came out. Not PC exclusive :(

[clongoram]

Very well done! Great vid:) I am playing Magic Carpet 1 at the moment and waiting for GOG to get MC 2 so I can play that as well. Like yourself I remember how MC blew me away graphics wise when I was younger. Also why is deformable terrain so hard to do these days? Look at MC, MC2, Red Faction 1 and 2. these games are ancient yet we still don't have as much interaction in games like we did. Ah well:)
