Classic turn-based strategy
Satisfying magic spells and good town and diplomacy mechanics. The only downside is the slow pace of the combat, which is best to automatically resolve.

The best of the best
This game is all the way up there with classics like Heroes III and Master of Magic. Games that great are hard to rank but after more than a decade of playing them Age of Wonders has surpassed them both in my opinion. The game is more than any other the spiritual successor to Master of Magic and combines a magical atmosphere with loving attention to detail and unparallelled strategic depth. The only part of the game that doesn't stand the test of time too well is the artificial intelligence which is very poor. However on the high difficulties there is still plenty of challenge to be had. I should also mention that the game still has a dedicated community at Heavengames (which I'm apparently not allowed to link to). And a final thing. The automated play by email functionality doesn't work properly any more. Luckily there is an easy to use fan made alternative available at heavengames. Playing AoW by email is a real treat and highly recommended.
