How it feels

A slow-burn strategy game where careful planning and spellcraft decide the fate of your kingdom.

What players say

Players say Arcane Sorcery is a shallow fantasy 4X that feels unfinished. It has only three races and four uncombinable magic paths, far less than the classic Master of Magic it tries to clone. The controls are slow, the AI is nearly absent, and several important mechanics like province rebellion go unexplained.
