Storm Master description
Amazing and unique for its time, the game that combines several genres: action, RPG, strategy and simulator game (and how!).
title screen scenario council & time to be wicked
The action takes place in the mythical country Eolie where there is no other magic except the magic of the Wind. For a long time the world did not know the troubles under the control of powerful and wise Ruler – the Great Master, but he died in battle with a terrible servant of Chaos Sharkaan'om, who now wants to capture the entire beautiful Country of the Winds. You play as a young mage (the mage Winds, it should be clarified, while other mages here and there), one of the disciples of the Lord, and if anyone can save the world from destruction, only your character.
Commander Screen - Utilize defenses such as catapults and airbases!

You can continue for a very long time – so many mysteries and possibilities conceals this game. Of course, it should be noted and remarkable for its time the graphics on all screens and in various game modes.
It is probably needless to say that the game is highly recommended for serious study to all lovers of bright and unusual old games. Is it worth it to talk about something else – about the lack.
