The original Master Of Magic is easily one of my favorite games of all time. But oh boy is it a hot buggy mess and how. There's an entire college thesis worth of complaints on how the original is broken so I'll spare you. This remaster adds some much needed bug fixes and then some. However instead of just stopping at some mandatory tweaks and a few quality of life improvements this game decided to frantically throw everything off the table, dump several suitcases full of cocaine and meth and snort all of it with glee. Everything is bigger and more, the game hits you faster and harder than ever, monsters are more overpowered, wizards are more insane. Even on the lowest difficulty the game will spawn multiple high level dungeons with multiple legendary creatures right next to your starting city and expect you to deal with it. It's a remaster made by and for absolute psychopaths. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2932407155

A timeless masterpiece Master of Magic is a blend of the two greatest 4X strategy games of its era: Master of Orion and Civilization. It takes tactical combat and a diverse selection of races from Master of Orion, while borrowing city management and a world map from Civilization. The combination worked so well that people are still playing it over 30 years later. Вespite many attempts, no game has truly managed to recreate the unique formula that made Master of Magic so special, in my opinion. The game also offers incredible replayability. Every campaign takes place in a randomly generated world, and your wizard can be built from around 50 million different combinations of abilities, spell books, and starting races. On top of that, many spells are randomly distributed between playthroughs, making each game feel even more unique. This package includes both the original game with the latest official patch and the polished Community Patch edition. If you're looking for an even deeper experience, there's also optional DLC featuring the fan-made Caster of Magic overhaul, which dramatically expands and rebalances the game. Everything is conveniently accessible through a single launch…

For many years, classic DOS Master of Magic was my favorite game of all time. It's like Civilization, but with factions ruled by a planeswalker from Magic the gathering. This version delivers variations of that game for you to enjoy, including faithful ones, and new modded content, so it gets a thumbs up from me. All versions have graphics from the early 90s, so the only mark against is that it might be hard to appeal to players who grew up when graphics were better.

Emulation work is sgreat to make this a stable game! even more stable than back in the olds days of the 486SX, also, they added more players and some map customization which really brings the game closer to the civ experience.
