Evaluation

Lords of Magic: Special Edition is a re-release on Steam (December 3, 2015) of a classic late-1990s strategy/RPG title by Impressions Games. The store description clearly defines what the package includes — the original Lords of Magic game and the Legends of Urak quest pack — and uses language consistent with a complete, bundled product. There are no unreleased DLC listings, no roadmap, no developer news posts, and no announcements of future content. Multiplayer functionality is explicitly noted as unavailable, and there is no indication of any live service or ongoing content development. This is a finished, legacy re-release that shipped as a complete package with no post-launch content cycle.

Evidence

About this game

The evil sorcerer Balkoth and his horde of followers have laid waste to the pastoral lands of Urak. Once magnificent cities lie in ruin, and the Great Temples of the land once devoted to learning are now overrun by Balkoth’s worshippers. Those that remain pray for a leader to rise from the ashes.

Lords of Magic builds on the strategy template of the Lords of the Realm series and infuses it into a fantasy role-playing epic. Wield fantastic sorcery as you explore the lands, develop your abilities and form powerful alliances.

Lead an army into the darkness and prove yourself a true Lord of magic!
