RadhikaWizard 101 is the first game by KingIsle, a new gaming company, which came out last year.
Before coming back to Nexon, I’d been playing Wizard 101 for a few days. It’s an amazing High-Graphics game.
It’s gameplay is a lot like Toontown, while the storyline is a lot like Harry Potter. So Harry Potter/Wizard Fans of all kinds should play
It won the bronze at MMORPG.com
#3 – Wizard 101 (link)
No one thought much of it when Kingsisle Entertainment put out Wizard 101 on September 2nd, 2008. This is the highest ranked “kids game” on the list, and generally picks up where games like Club Penguin leave off.
Players find themselves in a fictional Wizardry school – sound familiar? – and sets players off in quests to foil the plots of the evil Malistaire Drake.
The setting is – with all apologies to Kingsisle – a shamless Harry Potter rip off, but while that no doubt helped generate some interest among fans who have yet to get their Harry Potter MMO, the game’s depth, attention to detail and sheer fun factor have kept gamers young and old enthralled.
Wizard101 has become the new “it” game of indy circles. It was developed by a small independent company, didn’t have a larger budget, or a huge marketing campaign. Nonetheless, they succeeded and put together one of the most solid games on the market. Now, their success speaks for itself.
Wow, nice and bad words eh?

It’s addicting at first, then kinda fades away. Just for a little time period, then it comes back. =] It’s still really undeveloped, so don’t mind the newness.
