How it feels
A sprawling, old-school RPG crawl through a world on the brink of elemental apocalypse, where assembling a ragtag party of misfits and methodically uncovering secrets feels rewarding in a slow, deliberate way.

About
The Destroyer again walks the land. In the four corners of the world gates to the planes of Fire, Air, Earth, and Water have opened and denizens of those realms are sweeping across the lands. Lead a band of rugged adventures on a most perilous mission to save the world. This is not necessarily an adventure just for Knights, and Clerics, you may need to enlist the aid of the darker races such as, Trolls, Dark Elves, and Minotaurs. Save the kingdoms from ruin or watch as the lands are decimated forever in Might and Magic VIII.
What players say
A first-person dungeon RPG widely seen as the weakest mainline Might and Magic, hampered by a long-stale engine, thin linear story and dragon-driven combat that turns repetitive. Still retains some of the series' addictive old-school charm despite the disappointment.
