The Master of Magic on the Commodore 64 is a 1985 fantasy action-adventure/RPG hybrid where you’re pulled into a strange world by the sorcerer Thelric and sent to recover a powerful amulet that promises immortality. You explore maze-like areas, gather items and spells, and fight a variety of creatures while gradually learning how the game’s systems fit together. It’s known for feeling like a compact, accessible “mini-Ultima” with brisk pacing and a strong sense of progression, capped by a memorable soundtrack from Rob Hubbard that helps give the whole quest an unexpectedly epic vibe for a budget-era release.
