Worlds of Magic – Spiritual Successor To Master of Magic – Gets A Kickstarter Campaign


Worlds of Magic
Wastelands Interactive and Lucid Dreamers have launched a Kickstarter campaign for Worlds of Magic, a new 4X strategy game meant to become the spiritual successor to Master of Magic. This Kickstarter aims to raise £30K in the next 29 days, and those interested can back it up by visiting its Kickstarter page.
As its Kickstarter description reads, Master of Magic was a true gem among strategy games, it offered almost unlimited possibilities for enjoyable play. It gave players the freedom to create fantastic worlds and release the power of magic. Worlds of Magic will follow the same exciting path and share the spirit of that genuine classic.
World of Magic will feature 6 factions to control, 80 military units (8 for each faction, plus over 30 roaming creatures), 300 marvelous spells, 12 spell circles, 7 planes, 10 leaders and a minimum of 45 special units: 25 Heroes, 15 Champions and 5 Titans.
World of Magic is planned for an early 2014 release on the PC.
