    As a lifelong fan I'm delighted by the attempt to remake the game. In my opinion, the developers achieved most goals, by staying faithful to the 1994 Simtex/MicroProse classic, with a few annoying pitfalls, such as a flawed GUI and weak (compared to other Slitherine games like Fantasy General and WH Gladius: Relic of War) combat AI. Luckily, the game has a (mostly) open source code, soAs a lifelong fan I'm delighted by the attempt to remake the game.

    The strategy classic has been transformed into a modern version that carries with it the joys and sins of the original game.

    3D remake of the 1994 classic with 14 races and tons of troop types and spells. Few comfort functions, needs a lot of patience.

    This remake is so faithful to the original game released in 1994 that it ignores achievements of many successful rivals released over the last 28 years. If you wanted to play Master of Magic with improved graphics and modern controls, this game was made for you.
