I wonder how many people here are coming with us along the way since the first day we lauch our site back to June 2007. For those we are not with since that period, you might missed out our very first 2 games which is Flip and Match and Blackhole.

We have removed some feature of the game and publish here again to let you try for free. The game itself is written with Actionscript 2.0 and is the first experimental game that we produced. Although it might contains some bugs yet but it should serve the purpose for trying. 

Although it is the first version of Flip and Match but it has some extra features such as Dragon Fireball, Ice Needle effects that isn't found in current version of Flip and Match Reloaded. 

We will put our old version of Blackhole soon for you to try as well.

Mago Revamped

Dec 24, 2007 05:15 am

After 2 months of hard work we are proud to announce Mago Entertainment is current in the 2nd stage of our schedule. We know we are not perfect and we are trying to get better from time to time.

We have gathered some valuable comments and suggestions from our players in Mago. Your comments helps us to serve you better. We did some improvements into our portal with added features and enchanced previous modules to create a more user friendly, fair, and entertaining environment in Mago.

Here are some quick notes about what are the improvements and enchancemend we made:

  1. Enchanced our portal backend and frontend application codebase. Approximately 90% of our previous code base has been rewrote to provide a more user friendly, secure, interactive gaming environment.
  2. Added Bidding module. We have replaced our previous competition-to-prize mechanism with a new bidding-to-prize mechanism. We developed a bidding engine for our players to bid for prizes and we believe it would provide different excitement apart from our games.
  3. Added Blog module keep our players and Mago Entertainment Development Team closely connected. Announcements and latest news will be delivered from here in the future so make sure you check this blog regularly.
  4. Added Players module and make our portal even more transparent to each of our players. You can always check player's informations on each player profile page.
  5. Enchanced User Account page which includes a lot of details that helps you to keep track your activities as well as other players at Mago
  6. Simplified registration form. We decided to left out some unnecessary fields to keep the registration process as simple as possible.
  7. Introduced terms Tokens Tokens and Bid Golds Bid Golds to minimize confusion between the points in Mago. Basically, Tokens Tokens are use to play our games while Bid Golds Bid Golds are use to bid for our prizes.
  8. Games are free to play which means you are able to continue to play our games if you are running out of Tokens Tokens. However you are not allow to submit your highscore and you cannot collect Effort Bid Golds Bid Golds each time you play the game.

We think it is not enough for us to stop yet. Here are some of the extra features that will include in our future update:

  1. Friend Module for you to create your friend list, add your friends and compete among your friends.
  2. Player Contribute Games Module. We are aware that creativity and excellent programming skills that you might have where you would like to share your master pieces to others. We will provide an interface for you to upload your games and share it among our players in Mago.
  3. Private Message Module to increase the interaction among our players in Mago
  4. New Games are continue to be developed by our development team. We wish to produce at least a game each month in the future.
  5. And to be continue... :)

We hope you are happy with our new updates. Please feel free to leave us any comments/suggestions here. Your comments are highly appreaciated. Thank you for your patient and support along the way.
