Description
These are black days for Urak. Evil envelops the land and the people cry out for a savior.

For a thousand years, peace reigned on the pastoral lands of Urak. Then forces of darkness, led by the evil sorcerer Balkoth, unleashed a nightmare of war and terrorism that destroyed the people and laid waste to the land. Now the cities are defenceless. The people are starving. The Great Temples of the land, once the centres of beauty and learning lie crumbling, overrun by worshippers of Balkoth. The people pray for a leader who can defeat Balkoth and end this nightmare. Are you that leader?
  • Includes the original Lords of Magic and the Legends of Urak expansion pack
  • A fine mix of the best qualities from Heroes of Might and Magic and Lords of the Realm
  • Addictive gameplay complete with exploration, combat, management and diplomacy

Great Game

Great game that deserves more attention and could use a remaster to improve the controls and map.

Old game I enjoy

An old game I've played for many years. My son told me I could find it and play it on GOG.

Good Old Game

Ahead of it's time, and still does things modern games shy away from. Get used to some of that old-timey jankiness and you'll have a cracking good time!
