![]() ![]() They certainly didn’t help with random crashes that also happen far too often. Next up is the Options screen, which offers plenty of things to configure, but none of them really helped me with weird slowness and hiccups that tend to happen throughout the game. There is no option to load a previous save from within the current game at all, so the only option is to get to the main menu first and use Load Game from here. However, as far as I can tell, there is no quick load. There is an undocumented Quick Save keyboard shortcut in Sorcerer King – Ctrl + S. I have a bone to pick with game saving and loading. That being said, I enjoyed it well enough, so I have high hopes for the regular game. As I said, most reviewers seem to agree that the campaign is weak compared to a regular game. ![]() The quests in the campaign are arranged in such a way that you are able to slowly progress through some sort of loose story.

Still, it comes very close, even if we don’t ignore the many technical flaws the game has, so it was good enough for me to play through it entirely, and good enough to write about.Īs usual, I would like to do a walk through, but I have some explaining to do first. As any other game of this type I’ve tried, though, it fails to capture the feeling Master of Magic was able to offer decades ago. As far as I can tell, it’s placed in the same universe as Elemental: War of Magic and Elemental: Fallen Enchantress, and it’s pretty good, fun game.
