Elemental: War of Magic had the potential to be a fantastic fantasy strategy game, but unfortunately, it falls far short of expectations. From its lackluster graphics to its numerous technical issues, this game struggles to deliver an enjoyable experience.

One of the biggest letdowns of Elemental: War of Magic is its unfinished state. The game feels rushed and incomplete, with numerous bugs and performance problems. It's clear that the developers did not have enough time or resources to polish the game before its release, resulting in a frustrating experience for players.

The graphics in Elemental: War of Magic are underwhelming. While visuals are not always the most important aspect of a strategy game, they can greatly enhance immersion and enjoyment. Unfortunately, the graphics in this game are outdated and lack detail, making it difficult to become fully immersed in the fantasy world it attempts to create.

The gameplay mechanics in Elemental: War of Magic are also lacking. While the idea of building an empire and engaging in epic battles is exciting, the execution falls flat. The AI is poorly programmed, often making questionable decisions and failing to pose a real challenge. The lack of depth in the gameplay mechanics makes the overall experience shallow and repetitive.

One of the few redeeming qualities of Elemental: War of Magic is its soundtrack. The music is atmospheric and adds a touch of ambiance to the otherwise lackluster gameplay. However, even the excellent soundtrack cannot salvage this game from its numerous flaws.

Overall, Elemental: War of Magic is a disappointing and unfinished fantasy strategy game. Its lackluster graphics, technical issues, and shallow gameplay mechanics make it difficult to recommend to even the most dedicated strategy game enthusiasts. Hopefully, future iterations of this game will address these problems and deliver the experience that fans of the genre deserve.
