Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic
Description
Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic is the third entry in the award winning fantasy strategy series. This fan-favorite enhances the series' praised fusion of empire building, role-playing and tactical combat with the eerie Shadow World and battle with races never before seen, across new and diverse landscapes.
Combined with the option of creating a totally unique environment with the map generator and rewriting the history of this world through the enhanced campaign editor, you are ensured a constant stream of completely new game experiences.
* Revisions to the original 12 Age of Wonders races. Each race has a new city upgrade, which comes with a new unit. For example, the Elves can build a Secret Forest, which cloaks the town and produces Treemen.
* Use diplomacy with your rivals as you see fit. Lay siege to enemy cities with a careful balance of tactical guile and magical augmentations. You might just be destined to become the greatest Wizard-King of all time.
* Confront rivals in Multiplayer via a LAN or over the Internet for up to 8 players - options include Play by Email, Hot Seat, and the exciting Simultaneous-Turn System allowing all players to move at the same time!
* Design your very own scenarios, heroes, items, and even new Wizards with the enhanced scenario editor, challenging others to triumph over your creation

Enjoyable, nostalgic gameplay
Like HoMM, but more tactics driven than just amassing huge armies.

AoW:SM is a class gem, still fun to play
A classic gem for its time, spent many hours enjoying the campaigns, although I don't see the original one, just the expension? The original campaign was quite large and fun. The key fun of the game is probably multiplayer pvp, coop or enjoying the story full casual. It offers plenty of tactics, spells, resource management and heroes to manage with their own traits and equipments that help tip the scales of war.
