You came to the world of Arcanus as a fledgling wizard. Sparsely equipped with but a spell or two, you begin as the ruler of a tiny hamlet and its people. With these raw materials, you must build a thriving city, explore the two worlds of Arcanus and Myrror, expand your empire and learn new spells. In time, you will meet other wizards, each rising from equally humble beginnings, each having the same goal as you, namely conquering the worlds. How well you allocate resources, make use of your races’ potentials, seize opportunities and negotiate with other wizards determines your eventual success. In the end, though, there can be only one Master of Magic!
Runs well on modern hardware.

Master of Magic! Do you like fantasy games? Do you happen to enjoy the famous TCG known as Magic the Gathering? Have you ever enjoyed a Civ game? Master of Magic is basically all of those things put together which made it a real gem in its time. I realize there is a remake of this game that has all the pretty graphics and remastered UI but I'm afraid I'll always prefer the original. From learning spells to summoning horrific beasts, casting global spells to doom the world or slowly dominating both planes of existence, this really is the ultimate fantasy kingdom experience that many many strategy games have taken notes from. I'd probably recommend finding a Youtube video to explain the UI but once you have it all down pat I promise you may very well catch yourself playing this for hours before you realize it. 10/10
A much loved classic that is still fun to play after all these years.
