I love magic systems in games that feel impactful, and especially love them if the mechanic is unique and different.

What are your favorites?

Seconding Magicka (and the sequel).
The spells have hilarious effects especially when playing the game in co-op.

Magicka is amazing for short burts of coop fun.
However, at some point you find that one spell that is just too busted and trivializes everything, until the DLCs decide to chuck a billion enemies at you.
From a technical standpoint, it's also a bit rough around the edges and likes to crash to desktop.

Definitely a decent investment if you can pick it up on sale.
