Line 2:
Magic, '''spells''', and [[magic charms|charms]] were introduced in ''[[Makin' Magic]]''. The premise is simple: Sims collect ingredients and combine them to create a useful spell. However some magic can only be used by [[adult]]s, while some can only be used by [[child]]ren.
To start casting, tell an adult Sim to open the box left by the [[Mystery Man]]. Inside the box there is a spell book, a wand charger, a wand, 35 [[
Children can also perform magic. They collect ingredients and place them within their own magical combiner, called the '''MagiCo NeoMagical Newt'''. Most children's magic is done with charms, but kids have their own versions of the Get Happy, Smiley Face, and Enchant spells. The kid versions of Get Happy and Smiley Face can be used on adults.
==Ingredients==
{{main|Magic Ingredients}}
Sims need to collect ingredients to create a useful spell. Of course, some ingredients are harder to obtain than others, and that means some spells are more difficult to produce. Some Ingredients can be bought with [[MagiCoins]], and some can be bought with simoleons. Many ingredients can be made or gotten at home. Some ingredients can only be obtained by bartering with vendors in [[
==Wand charging and charm making==
When making spells or charms, the ingredients must be added in the correct order. This can be determined by looking in the spell book.
To add ingredients to the wand charger, NeoMagical Newt, or EverAfter Crafter, click the objects and select "Add...". You will see a pie menu with all ingredients the Sim has which can be added to that combiner. To see what's in the combiner, click "Read Label". To empty it, click "Empty Out".▼
▲To add ingredients to the wand charger, NeoMagical Newt, or EverAfter Crafter, click the objects and select "Add...".
Once the three ingredients have been added, click on the combiner and select "Charge Wand" (for the wand charger), "Make Magic" (for the NeoMagical Newt), or "Make Charm" (for the EverAfter Crafter). With spells, the number of charges an adult gets depends on the type of spell and the Sim's Cooking skill. Kids only get one charge when they charge their wands, but kids' charms always get six charges. The number of charges an adult charm gets depends on the type of charm and the maker's Mechanical skill.
==How to cast spells==
Click on the Sim you want to cast at, or the object you want to enchant. If the option "Cast..." appears, click on it and
''Enchant'' and ''Enchant Jr'' can only be cast on inanimate objects, and not all of them. ''A Friend Indeed'' can only be cast on family pets. Other spells can only be cast on Sims who have been greeted. If the "Greet" option appears when you click on a Sim, spells cannot be cast at that Sim until they've been greeted.
