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

What are your favorites?

Noita. You can spend hours tweaking out and testing spell combinations. Make eggs summon more eggs that summon giant worms, turn a lighsaber into a bubbles held, disintegrate the moon. Feels like anything goes in that damn game

God, I wish Noita wasn't so impenetrable for me; from what I've played, it seems like the wackiest shit possible and I do love me some wack. Any recommendations on how to overcome the difficulty curve?

There's a mod that lets you modify your wands anywhere, and another that respawns you at the last 'holy mountain' area you got to when you die (the rest area between levels). Playing with those mods will get you used to the spells and enemies you encounter, and let you experiment.
