1. Sarah - 2 stars - I was really disappointed by "Master of Magic Classic". The game felt outdated and clunky, with poor graphics and a confusing user interface. I found it difficult to navigate through the game and understand the mechanics. The character customization options were also very limited and the gameplay became repetitive and boring after a while. Overall, I would not recommend this game to anyone looking for a modern and engaging strategy experience.
2. John - 1 star - "Master of Magic Classic" was a complete letdown for me. The AI in the game was incredibly frustrating and seemed to have no logic behind its actions. On top of that, the game lacked any sort of balance, with certain races and spells being overpowered and others being practically useless. The interface was also poorly designed and made it hard to keep track of everything that was happening. I was expecting a great strategy game, but all I got was a headache.
3. Lisa - 2 stars - I had high hopes for "Master of Magic Classic", but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. The graphics were outdated and the gameplay felt slow and sluggish. The AI opponents were predictable and easy to defeat, making the game lose its excitement quickly. The lack of strategic depth and options also made it feel repetitive and monotonous. Overall, I found the game to be a disappointment and wouldn't recommend it to fellow strategy game enthusiasts.
4. Tom - 2.5 stars - While "Master of Magic Classic" has its moments, I found several aspects of the game to be frustrating. The difficulty level seemed unbalanced, with some battles being way too easy while others were nearly impossible to win. The lack of clear instructions and guidance made it difficult for me as a player to know what to do and how to progress. Additionally, the game lacked the polish and attention to detail that I expect from a strategy game. Overall, it had potential, but fell short in terms of gameplay and enjoyment.
