Magic Carpet Plus™
Description
You're flying just feet above real landscapes. There's a dragon in front of you, killer crabs behind and some guy on another carpet cutting you to ribbons. Not enough mana for the accelerate spell. Looks like you're gonna have to fight this one out, then.
Shred the skies on the world’s fastest, most heavily armed flying carpet. Duel rival wizards and wade into hordes of deadly beasts in your quest to restore 50 shattered worlds. At your disposal is an impressive arsenal of devastating spells. Summon lighting storms, meteors, raise the dead to fight for you and, of course, cast the classic fireball spell, and that is only the beginning!
The terrain is fully deformable so if you suddenly have an unresistable felling that those peaceful and green fields need more fire, death, and thundering volcanoes, there is nothing that stands in your way! Yes, Magic Carpet, Bullfrog's extraordinary flying action-shooter, gives you all the power a wizard could ever wish for!

Did not hold up to the nostalgia
The short of it is that this game did not age well. I absolutely loved both Magic Carpet games in my youth. But coming back to them now, it just doesn't work anymore. It starts of with being difficult to get the game running at the right speed - it's either too fast or choppy pretty much all the time, even after tuning DosBOX as much as possible. Then, as many have already said, the controls are not great. More importantly though, the gameplay isn't quite there either. Just a lot of zooming around shooting and getting damaged by ambushes in a way that doesn't feel very communicative of what's going on. Lots of good ideas, but really just a mash of half-baked execution of most of them.

Good game, poor controls
I used to play this game on playstation, and had loads of fun. But this computer version is simply infuriating. The controls are simply inconvenient and counter-intuitive. You can't invert the vertical mouse movement, it's overly sensitive, and many commands (like changing spells) will require you to reach across your keyboard and hit shift-5 or something like that-- which is not something you want to have to do in the middle of a fight. I bought the game for less than $2.50, and I'm regretting even that. I know it's a good game, but these controls are just awful.

Broken Controls
The controls are among the most awkward and frustrating I have ever encountered. Also the entire layout of the game is uninspired. I didn’t think I’d like it, but I heard great things so when I saw it was on sale I thought I would try it. But my instincts were right and I don’t like it at all.
