🕶️ A view of its UI, with a top-left banner featuring the main menus, a wider banner on the right with the minimap at the top, the "Next Turn" button at the bottom, and on the main section the map in aerial view with a fog of war (at the start of the game it was almost entirely black). A character can be seen in wooded countryside with deer.

📚️ Master of Magic - IME is a libre and multi-platform, standalone (does not require the original data), solo (vs AI) / multiplayer (client/server) Java implementation, of Master of Magic (1994, by the Simtex studio), a game mixing 4X turn-based strategy and RPG, on a fantasy theme, in which the player plays a wizard in a war against other wizards. To win, he must destroy his competitors or banish them with a powerful spell that is difficult to implement (the Spell of Mastery). He is compared to Civilization in a fantasy atmosphere, with a more complex combat system and a universe with two planes of existence (Arcanus and Myrror).

If you're into Civ, then I think you should be very interested in trying out this demo. 4X, but with cavemen/women and mammoths!

🕶️ A view of his IU during the game, with the 2.5D map in the background and a bird's-eye view showing cities, plains, mountains, rivers, and in the foreground economic balances with population curves of the Greek civilization, we are in 1851 AD (indicated at the top of the IU).

📚️ C-evo: New Horizons is a libre, multi-platform fork of C-evo 1.2.0, a single-player or multiplayer (hotseat) turn-based strategy / empire-building game inspired by Microprose's Civilization II. It covers a period of several thousand years, with aspects of exploration and expansion, industry and agriculture, war and diplomacy, science and administration. It follows the spirit of the turn-based strategy games of the mid-90s, but with an emphasis on powerful AI and meticulous rules design, to offer a real challenge. The project was born out of a desire to correct the design errors and weaknesses of Civ II's AI. Its AI is unleashed, with only one objective: to win.
