    Master of Magic, Master of Strategies

    By Stygian_Warlock | Review Date: Aug 09, 2008 | PC

    First and foremost, next to playing Star Wars: Tie Fighter for the first time, this title was one of the greatest gaming experiences I have ever had. It is hard to pick just one element of Master of Magic (MoM) that mak... Read Full Review

    One of the best (and among the first) PC games I have EVER played

    Spiritual predecessor to Age of Wonders, Microprose does not disappoint.
