5.0 out of 5 stars
fun and comprehensive book for a great innovative game,
By "maeg1in" (Springfield, VA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Master of Magic: The Official Strategy Guide (Prima's secrets of the games) (Paperback)
I had forgotten about this book, but as we've reorganized the home office, I rediscovered it and the game. I think the book manages to capture and enhance the original spirit of the game which is saying quite a bit. I've played the game for hundreds (maybe thousands) of hours, but 75% of the book's insights are still new to me. Master of Magic can be won with many, many different strategies and styles of play (part of what makes it a great game). These authors have obviously looked at the game from every angle with every strategy and obviously pestered the good folks at the developer to get all kinds of detail about how the innards of the game actually work. This should be required reading for anyone looking to develop a turn based strategy game (computer and otherwise). If only the computer players in MoM weren't quite so dim at the end of the game, this book would be even more useful

Valuable Resource for Beginners and Experienced Players,
By Tuckerby (Los Alamos, NM USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Master of Magic: The Official Strategy Guide (Prima's secrets of the games) (Paperback)
Whether you are just discovering this game or have been playing it for years, this guide is a must-have. It contains information on all aspects of play--spells, skills, races, combat, urban planning, etc, and discusses computer-controlled elements such as treasures, random events, and monsters. The book does contain some debatable rankings and recommendations, but the wealth of helpful information overshadows these few flaws. The authors also did a fantastic job of considering various play styles and game settings when writing this book. This guide is an excellent resource that deserves a place by your computer!
