Description

Having a reputation for developing sequels, 3DO Studios has made many a popular game across multiple platforms. Army Men aside, 3DO is known quite well by PC owners for its Might and Magic series. The success of the giant role-playing game has led to the development of an eighth instalment, and as the latest in the series, it promises to be the most advanced to date. The world of Enroth has fallen out of balance with the rest of the cosmos. As a result, the gateways to the elemental planes have been opened on your world, freeing the forces of Earth, Air, Fire, and Water to wreak havoc throughout the land. This is the point where the player makes an entrance. Your challenge is to form a party of five skilled warriors that will ultimately close the gateways and save Enroth from its ultimate destruction. Beginning with just a single creation, you can then customize your character's attributes, hopefully turning them into a truly powerful being. You can specify strengths and weaknesses and determine their class, be it wizard or warrior. A number of new character classes have been produced for this installment, including Vampire and Troll. The initial stages of the game place you in a land of war and destruction. From here on in, you can control your actions with little restriction and explore a variety of the game's branching subplots. Environments are rendered in full 3D and look lovely, although most objects and characters within the game are 2D animations. Might and Magic VIII is indeed an incredibly large game with a great level of longevity. It has a steady learning curve, and doesn't require a powerhouse to work. It's widely accessible and challenging. What more could you ask?
