Magic (game terminology)

Magic, in the world of games, is a special set of rules or abilities that let you do things that normal people or characters couldn't do. It's kind of like having a superpower in a video game or a board game. Some games have characters or creatures that use magic to cast spells, create illusions, or even summon creatures to fight for them. Magic can also refer to a special kind of card game called Magic: The Gathering, where players use decks of magical cards to battle against each other. In short, magic is a special way to do cool stuff in games that would be impossible otherwise.
