Master of Magic Cheats & Cheat Codes for Windows

Master of Magic Cheats & Cheat Codes for Windows

In 1994 an MS-DOS game was released by American developer, MicroProse called Master of Magic. In 2022, this game was remade for Windows by developer MuHa Games. Master of Magic is a single-player fantasy turn-based strategy game. The game has been received favorably as fans and critics compare it to Civilization, another strategy game. The game is praised for its faithful recreation of the original while others cite this as criticism. When remaking an older game it is good to change outdated game design for a modern audience, your game will come off as unaccessible. Master of Magic currently sits at 75 on Metacritic.

The Premise Of Master of Magic

In Master of Magic, the player plays as a wizard attempting to dominate two linked worlds. A match starts with a small settlement where the player will manage resources, build cities and armies, and research spells to grow their empire and fight other wizards. This world is randomly generated every time a game is started and the player must adjust to changes every match. These matches can take a long time with each game being played over hundreds of turns. One side wins when the other is eliminated or forced to surrender.

The Main Characters of Master of Magic

The characters of Master of Magic are the wizards available for players to choose from.

  • Merlin – a great wizard engaged in a relentless personal quest for the Spell of Mastery. A devotee to his library and tomes, Merlin is the world’s most capable magical researcher.
  • Sss’ra – Sss’ra is a Draconian, a humanoid dragon-kin. He is covered in green scales from head to toe; has a long, thin tail; a reptilian head with horns and eerie yellow eyes; and purple wings that enable him to fly like the rest of his kind.
  • Raven – Raven is a wandering shaman of the earth and sky. “Raven” is so-named by his people for being a messenger of portents from the outer magical realms.
  • Tauron – Based on his summary in the game’s Manual, Tauron seems to be an invader or exile from the plane of Chaos.
  • Sharee – Sharee is a voodoo priestess with a paranormal talent, and an ability to commune with the spirits of lower planes of Chaos and Death.
  • Freya – Among the five wizards with Nature ranks, Freya is the specialist, drawing all of her magical might from the land and sea.
  • Lo Pan – Lo Pan is a mystic who cultivates the body’s core spiritual energy. His training has opened a path to a secret branch of planetary magic, the geomancy, Feng-Shui.
  • Horus – Horus is a young spellcasting prodigy.
  • Jafar – Jafar is a nomad sorcerer of the deep desert. Jafar made a study of Quork Crystals gleaned from the sands and embarked on the path of an Alchemist, a final authority on matter and energy conversions.
  • Ariel – Ariel is a high priestess in the High Men’s church, an eminent organized religion on Arcanus featuring (in addition to herself) some major fighting characters like Roland, Elana, the Order of Paladins, and the Chosen.
  • Oberic – Oberic is an Elementalist, a wizard who comprehensively studies Nature, Chaos, and the yin-yang relationship they exhibit in shaping the world.
  • Tlaloc – The priest Tlaloc presides over a warlike cult encircling his Fortress.
  • Rjak – Rjak is simply described in the Manual as an evil warlock, and it is never made clear what face lies beneath the black cowl.
  • Kali – The ageless witch Kali delves into Sorcery and Death’s mysteries such as they pertain to the creation of enchanted tools and armor.

Other Titles In The Series

Master of Magic is not a part of a series as its only two releases are the 1994 release and the 2022 remake.

Master of Magic Cheats

All Spells and Increased Mana

To learn all spells and increase your mana, go to the Magic screen, hold ALT, and type “pwr”. Note that the other wizards will gain this advantage as well.

Apply Spell Charges on Any Item for Free

When you cast the CREATE ARTIFACT spell, go to staff, select spell charges, then choose your spell of choice and its power. Afterward, click on the spell charge option again to delete the spell charge. Then make a weapon as you normally would, but don’t add another spell charge. When your item is created it will have whatever enchantments you gave it plus the spell charge.

With this trick, you can have up to FIVE enhancements on a weapon at a time! The only problem is that your hero will only use the spell charges when you hit the “AUTO” button in battle.

Gain Super Powerful Artifacts

When using the ENCHANT ITEM or CREATE ARTIFACT spell you can make a super powerful artifact by naming it, giving it the 4 enchants, and then before you click ok, click on a 5th enchant. It should say you may not have more than 4 enchants on an item. you will notice that the name of the artifact has changed to what the warning said. “no more than four enchantments on an artifact”. Don’t fix the name, and click ok. when the artifact is done you will have a super artifact. Note: you should only make one of these artifacts for each hero, or instead of giving maxed-out stats it will give 0 stats, taking away what they already had.

In the Magic screen, hold ALT and type “rvl” to see everything on the map. Be warned: the other wizards will see you as well.
