Master of Magic

I tried to like this game, but the game is very frustrating. Pros: setup, wizard design, lots of stuff all over the map, races seem different enough, overall good enough gameplay. Frustrations: I get my highly level heroes one-shot per battle turn by a fireball spell (3 heroes in a row before I quit). When I cast spells at enemies with lower resistance than me, it does 0-1 damage. I take an enemy's capital city and a few of his other cities. He continues to send full army stacks in multiple planes against me even though I believe he only has one city. No wizard would do a treaty of any sort with me. (only successfully got item trades). I only got to the mid-game scourge event of the dlc once and left it on normal. Wasn't a fan, but couldn't verify on reduced settings. The normal is a ton of enemy bases spawn within 2-4 tiles of your cities and start producing full army stacks (9 units) about 4-10 turns from their spawn. Once you defeat the stack, they produce another in 2-3 turns. You're pretty much going to lose cities and slowly destroy the bases, very very slowly. Overall this game was fun in points, but I've devoted more time than I should've and I wish I would've refund…

I have to say that to this day i play the original MoM, and although i still recommend playing it, this version is actually quite nice, it shows love for the original game. Doesn't have the same feel and in late game the turns become slow, but i actually recommend it. i enjoy it quite a bit, but still play the original one. The feel is just unique on that one. But thank you to the developers, this in my opinion e a very nice approach to remake a unique game.

True to the classic and fun to play. There are some quality of life staples of the 4x genre missing, but it doesn't detract from the overall experience, especially for old time fans.

Recommended 8/10 Still a fun, one more turn grind, now with nice graphics and much improved interface.

Like in the good old days.

This is the best computer game. Great exploring with magic making it even better.
