May 2025

Very enjoyable - Would recommend for anyone who wants a fairly complex turn based strategy game The UI is about what you'd expect from a game this old, but there's a surprising amount of variety with plenty of factions, units, and abilities for heroes and units The tutorial is a bit lacking and you will probably find yourself missing info on how to progress in your empire building, but there are plenty of guides online to help you out Sidenote: If you get the error "exception during MapViewer.ShowScene" when trying to start any map through the tutorial, campaign or random maps, there is a fix for it on GitHub and googling the error will bring it up as I don't want to post links in a steam review

The sweet addiction of just one more turn. Pure nostalgic bliss in hex form.

Ultimate Death Knight Simulator: I cast pestilence I cast death storm BOOM instantly turn the map into a rotting hellhole.

March 2025

the one that started it all. Still like some of the game play in this original version of age of wonders 1 over 2, 3, and 4. Worth checking out. One minor con is you can't run in windowed mode.

Oct. 2024

The very best of the serie. The graphics, the music, the writing, they all reigned supreme. The subsequent games have diminished in all aspects from this one (however implausible it might sound). It's just impressive to witness such a downgrade. Noteworthy, the game pocess the best written campaign of any strategy game I've ever played, and the reason comes from the inherent quality of its narrative, but also the various branching of the story that depend on the player choices. Most older games suffer bad rep. on steam, mostly because their release are kinda bugged, or cut of content. Which often explains why they don't get the positive reviews they ought to get.
