    I bought this hoping that there would be a significant single player campaign akin to the main game, but alas, it was only 'challenge' content (so if you die, you start again). To be fair however, it's also cheap, and what's there is a lot of fun (as long as you bring friends... it's Hard). Brings a few new laughs from old movie cliches, some new weapons, and of course a lot more blowing stuff up.

    Summary: Fun addon, but nothing special.    … Expand

    I bought this as a double pack with the original in the steam sale the other week... graphically its decent i guess, but as the DLC goes there not very much of it for the money... barely 2 MP maps and a new survival mode... just 1 campaign mission which is very brief.

    I really like the "Vietnam Rescue Mission" level a lot. Indeed, it is "die and you start over", but as such, I think it makes for an interesting arcade-style experience. That in combination with the interesting mash-up of spell-casting and Vietnam war aesthetics (which somehow works) make this experience quite a different one from the base Magicka game. I think if "mash-up" or "arcade" caught your eye, it's probably for you. The other map, blah.… Expand

    One of the 2 best DLC for a great game, this pack has a wave survival and a hostage rescue mission as well as an awesome robe and 2 of the best weapons in the game, a staff that fires an explosive grenade and a machine gun that tears through enemies with ease. The music for the levels are awesome! they're like pop tunes in a hilarious and yet very serious environment that just adds another layer of awesomeness to this great package. The only downside is the slightly to high price of $5 AUD which is only $1 AUD below the stars are left which includes a complete extra campaign but I got this on special for 50c AUD and I'd happily pay say $3-$4 for this amazing dlc that is just awesome and will keep you in the crazy mood all the way through.… Expand

    Vietnam's story mission is pants, but the new weapons and survival map will please devoted Magicka fans.

    Look, just play Magicka. Because it at least makes some kind of sense. [July 2011, p.65]

    Still buggy. Not nearly as funny. [June 2011, p.99]
