Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
70 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
SUMMARY: Great, deep gameplay to satisfy anyone with a love for 4X games, unlimited game choices, procedural generation, epic battles, world building, transporting to multiple planes, and did I mention firing fireballs or lightning strikes?
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
49 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I personally like the graphics, animations in battle are ok (and fairly quick which is nice after a while).
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The units are almost identical to the Worlds of Magic roster, which is great, because WoM got a lot right, including the variety and style of monsters.
