This was my first RPG game for the computer, but I think it is great. The number of characters and items is wonderful. So is the amount of land space. Time moving between different areas can take a minute, though. If you buy this game I suggest getting the strategy guide for it.

My version of the game of the year

This is the best game I have ever played. Right when I played the game it became my new favorite. In story line I give it a 5 out of 5. You start out on an island for a contest that Lord Markham has put together. Graphics gets a 4.5 out of 5. The graphics are more like being into a live picture. The only thing I don't like about the graphics is you can't see your characters.
Overall this game is worth your precious time. BUY IT!!!!

I didn't buy the game but one of my brothers friends had the mellinum edition and gave it to me and i enjoyed the game because it was easy and yet challenging at the same time but it was still fun and was creative.

Very enhanced graphics with great deatail. Lots of variety of characters and monsters. Great for beginers and easy to master. Interesting waepons and other items.Easy to use maps/icons and character movements.

Good game, but nothing new

The best feature of this game, I agree with most, was the Arcomage mini-game. If they haven't already, 3Do should turn this into an actuall game. The option to choose between the light and dark path was nice, but the overall game was too much like MM6, without enough new features. The use of the invisibility spell makes it too easy, though, and I found myself almost done at level 20.

4 Stars and I'm just out of the starting gate...............

I'm giving this game 4 Stars out of the "gate" because it's pretty much just like "M&M 6" and that's definitely a good thing. M&M 6 in my opinion is one the the best in the series and so far 7 has got me wanting to continue more of the late night session i spent with it's predicessor. Oh, and by the way, if you are having trouble getting this game to run,read on a few reviews down,( if you are reading the reviews in order of the 'date reviewed') you'll see a very simple solution shared by one of the reviewer's that works. Fret not,the game does run on XP,you'll just have to have a little 'Know How' and a little patience.-----Darvius7

I've always loved the Might & Magic series and this one is no exception. I love first person, turn-based-party games. I have been dumb enough to periodically waste money on some of the various third person games out there like Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights, but I hate third person and cannot get into it at all. Might & Magic does not have that problem.

This game, along with MM-6 and MM-8 are pretty much in the same format with a few tweaks. That is fine with me. I have become so engrossed it them that I have played all three of them at least three times each. There is no other game that even comes close.

Despite the crudeness factor, I love the graphics. The spell system is just right, and I don't mind all the monster bashing. The story kept me engaged each time I played, even knowing the outcome the second and third time around.

I just wish someone would continue the series in the same format with maybe 3-D graphics but the same game play and all the rest. I give a hats off to the Might & Magic Tribute people who are doing it on their own, since no company seems interested in doing it.

Highly recommended.

5 stars for the music alone! Incredible compositions!

I really only played this game for 4-5 hours back when I first bought it years and years ago. Ever since then, I've kept the 2nd CD handy for my listening pleasure. It's great to sleep to, great to relax to when you're doing anything from chillin' out to working on the computer, etc. It's very, very well-composed. It blends so many various musical elements that I haven't heard blended as such before. So many themes can be heard throughout... elements of Irish, Scottish, classical/baroque, and just full-on ambience with the use of voices and many, many instruments. One of my favorite tunes on here starts with a very intriguingly haunting chromatic piano part with overlayed violin and cello's coming in with a beautiful minor progression that sounds like it shouldn't fit but absolutely does. The result is a disorientingly beautiful piece of music that builds into a grand change fit for a great movie (ala Braveheart).

An audiophile will hear that the instruments are obviously synth-created but the samples sound great and real enough to more than get the job done. This is great music to get lost in. There's depth to the compositions and many layers to pick out during any given passage most of the time. The usage of the instruments isn't repetitive, either. Sometimes, the drums have a very wet reverb applied to them and certain instruments sound as though they're recorded dynamically with different mic positions in different rooms.

So... from what little I played the game, it was fun but the 5 star rating comes from me rating this game SOLELY on the listening enjoyment of the music! I've had this game for somewhere from 8-10 years if I'm not mistaking and even at this very moment, I'm enjoying the music even MORE than I have before. Definitely worth it just for the music alone!
