Question for the Watchers:
Is it RPG enough to include it in our RPG-database?

It's definitely a 4X game. Maybe with mods, it can be more of an RPG. I would compare it with the mod, Fall from Heaven for Civ 4. A lot on Steam are comparing it with Age of Wonders.

Not really. It's a great game, but it's like AoW or HMM or Eador. Do you have those games in the RPG-database?

Yes they do check the game database.

Age of Wonders was inspired by Master of Magic so that's a compliment.

The question is, what boxes does it have to tick in order to be in the database and considered as an RPG? Are they the components according to the scripted engine we had on the previous website, so exploration, character evolution, story, and optionally combat?

 

[HiddenX]

We have included the Age of Wonders and Spellforce games as Strategy RPGs.

If Master of Magic is similar to them I would include it.
