Looks very early access
The colour scheme is just plain awful, but otherwise the new features are ok. But the new graphics...

Will it still create a game vortex?
You know - a vortex that doesn't let you out for hours on end. This happened to me in the original game, and once I 'solved' it with every glitch combo (alchemy + runemaster, etc), it died. When a stable version with patches showed up on GOG, I tried it, and it just wasn't the same. This Caster of Magic business intrigued me. I tried again with some of the old shenanigans, and they are all fixed and I can get my tactical magic blasting on again. Great balance and rework of spells plus build queues is enough to make this a fun, viable game again. To the bad reviews: 1. The additional DLC for the Windows version I was somewhat miffed at, but native over DOSBox is what you are paying for. I think I can handle $3 2. Bad new tilesets: I like them and can see the map better than the old. There is an option to go back to the old, so it shouldn't be an issue now. 3. Bugs - I'm sure they are there, but I can't find any. I think they've mostly been squashed. 4. Targeting in squares. I think this has always been a problem, and no improvement there.

Is this a joke?
I wanted to buy the game but can not because I also need to buy the DOS version, to play the windows version? What kind of cheap money grab is this and why is it here in the first place? Stop wasting my time GOG, that's a new low!

DLC already included in GOG's base game!
I have GOG's [url=http://www.gog.com/en/game/master_of_magic_classic]Master of Magic[/url] version. It includes Slitherine's launcher that comes up with a launcher window containing only four huge buttons (image [url=http://static.wikia.nocookie.net/masterofmagic/images/6/66/MoM_Launcher.png]here[/url]). One button is a ad for the new 2022 remake of the game. The other three buttons are for three versions of classic: Original Original with community patch Original with Caster of Magic patch More info on the community patch and the Caster of Magic variant can be found on the MOM wiki: [url=http://masterofmagic.fandom.com/wiki/Community_Patch]Community Patch[/url] [url=http://masterofmagic.fandom.com/wiki/Caster_of_Magic]Caster of Magic[/url]

Incredibly good!
In terms of deep, engrossing gameplay, I'd rate Caster of Magic as possibly the best 4X experience ever. (For me, the only serious competitor would be the Fall from Heaven II mod for Civ 4.) That may strike you as hyperbole, but the original Master of Magic would appear near the top of many veteran strategy players' lists, and this mod/DLC is such an improvement, I don't think I would ever be able to go back. Seravy has managed to keep the spirit of the original -- the atmosphere, the myriad choices as to strategy, the mind-boggling depth, the super-powered stratagems -- but he has made subtle adjustments which allow the AI to play the game, too. Or, to be more precise, his adjustments allow the AI to give you a real run for your money. The game contains many high powered combinations, but each now has a counter, and the AI will try to use those counters. So while paladins and halfling slingers are still valuable units, owning a bunch of them no longer amounts to "I win" because AI opponents will have ideas as to how to adjust. Of course, the game will not be for everybody. Not everyone who thinks he wants fierce competition from the computer opponents will actually be happy when this is granted. More importantly, it's mostly still 1994 graphics (which I do not mind at all) and UI (which I do... good grief, the map is frustrating!) Also, if your attachment to the original is highly nostalgic, it is quite possible that specific details you loved have been altered. However, no shiny new game that I know of offers this sort of tense strategic gameplay. I've been playing this non-stop since it came out, and it's pretty much taken over my life. I suspect that crack cocaine would have proven less addictive. :)
