Master of Magic review

Electronic Games (1995): "Master of Magic is a remarkable game, a combination of strategy and role-playing action that hasn’t really been attempted on this scale before.
Power junkies and fantasists alike will praise MicroProse for having the imagination to think big".

Retro gamer collector's corner:

In 1997, MicroProse released a Master of Magic "Jr." scenario, using the Civilization II engine, as part of the Civ II: Fantastic Worlds expansion for Civilization II.
