Might and Magic® 9

I have tried this game some years ago but I did not like it. Now when I finally manage to start, I can not move in the game nor control anything. It is broken. Other MM games are brilliant. Get them instead.

I know what I say is controversial but this is honestly a really fun game. Yes it has flaws and the game was on a budget due to bankruptcy but that doesn't mean this game is the worst game in the world. I loved the concept and mechanics but the only problem I had was the plot, it was so weird and random. Regardless of that though I always had to have a lich in my party, the rest I would play by ear and decide what it was I wanted. I thought the beastiary had some really cool designs and to be honest perfer the designs on the enemies in comparison to might and magic 7 enemies. Don't get me wrong though I am sad that new world computing shut down due to bankruptcy that never spells good for a game that was on a budget but the game still is enjoyable. If you wanna play it get it while it is on sale. I hope my review will help convince you to purchase it.

Might and magic 9, the first computer rpg I've ever played. I thought it was good at the time. I thought a lot of things were good when I was 9 years old. But playing this heaping pile of crap now just hurts. What's wrong with it? Tons of glitches, crazy difficulty, terrible graphics, terrible story and loads of padding. My god, I wouldn't have even RELEASED the game in this state. I understand it was rushed, but that leads me to the positives for it. 9's character system and skill point system is awesome. It's easier, simple, and surprisingly well implemented. Plus, the voice acting, while silly, can be pretty convincing. Some people got into character well, like Markel The Great. But, that doesn't save the game. Good lord, why this game even exists is just mind boggling. Don't buy this, just get the older games instead.

Takes me back to the good ol days, takes a bit to get used too, had to jig the controls to suit. Otherwise its an easy to roll with, fun game.

I like it for gameplay improvments even so its not very might and magicky
