Master of Magic Remake
A faithful remake of the 1994 4X classic that trades the original's dated UI for modernized controls, but stumbles when it tries to fix what wasn't broken.
GamerScout Verdict
For series veterans tired of the original UI, but newer players will find stronger 4X alternatives.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Master of Magic Remake
I went in expecting a straight-up nostalgia play, and Master of Magic Remake mostly delivers on that. You pick a wizard, shape the world, summon creatures, cast spells, and crush rivals across two planes of existence. The core loop is addictive: research new magic schools, build armies, exploit mana nodes. The remake retains the original's obsessive depth without the DOS-era friction of navigating 16-color menus. The problem is execution. UI improvements help, but the AI is sluggish, and some balance tweaks feel arbitrary rather than clarifying. It's not a broken game, just an uneven modernization. If you bounced off the 1994 original due to interface pain, this fixes that. If you've never played the series, Dominions or Endless Legend might scratch the same itch with tighter design. Metacritic's 78 feels about right, competent remake, not essential.
