Trivia

German version

Translations how they should not be. On the back of the German cover the advertisement want to state that Magic Carpet 2 is still an action game and that the action is faster than before. Unfortunately the word "action" was also translated and now the advertisement state something about faster activity and activity parts within the game. Strange, they have managed to keep the word "action" within the first sentence of the advertisement.

Intel

Magic Carpet 2 features several references to the Intel Pentium processor. In several of the regular levels you can find an entrance to bonus Demon Lord levels. While these Demon Lord are being loaded, briefly a screen with the Intel Inside logo and the message "Pentium processor detected, configuring for optimal performance" is shown. The funny thing is, you also get to see this message when your PC is equipped with an AMD processor.

Music

One of the advanced command line parameters for executing this game from CDROM is: NETHERW -MUSIC2 which allows the gamer to listen to alternative music from the original Magic Carpet.
