    Worlds of Magic: Planar Conquest is a game that mixed real-time and turn-based strategy into an epic fantasy world. Its weak technical aspects, its high price and a not balanced difficulty curve only makes it a recommendable title for fans of classic strategy games.

    I have put literally hundreds of hours into this game. If you are a fan of deep TBS games, you will, too. I adore it. The map exploration andI have put literally hundreds of hours into this game. If you are a fan of deep TBS games, you will, too. I adore it. The map exploration and city building of Civ with battlemaps reminiscent of Dragon Force but with deep hero customization and individual unit control, this game is one of a kind and it’s in my top ten of all time, right next to Gladius.

    Single battles between two full armies can last for a couple of hours at higher levels, and this game delivers on the promise of days and days worth of battles. The resource/production/troop management phases are excellent, though become repetitive- just like a well-oiled bureaucracy should. This is a turn based strategy game for people who love TBS games. That brings me to to my score.

    It is a 12/10 in my heart, but I gave it a 9/10 here because it’s a little buggy, and on big maps with lots of armies and cities, it will crash on you on occasion. Freezes during battles will happen, and you will lose all progress in that battle. It doesn’t crash “often” but it will crash enough that you WILL learn to habit save or lose your mind. If this is a deal breaker, or you don’t love the sublime tedium of TBS games- then consider my rating a 1/10.

    If you do choose to immerse yourself in the role of inter dimensional conqueror, then I must reiterate and please recognize that I am more forgiving of crashing and habit-saving than the average gamer, so be forewarned: save often.    … Full Review »
