About
Magic & Mayhem: The Art of Magic is a 3D role-playing / strategy hybrid. You'll battle enemy creatures and wizards by conjuring forces and developing spells from the magic laws of Chaos, Law and Order. This unique magic system allows you to develop an individual strategy for each mission, altering the spells and creatures you use in battle each time. Summon fantastic creatures from mythology-giants, archers, undead minions, dragons, knights, and much more. Your character's skills and abilities develop as the game progresses through items found in scenarios and experience gained from successfully completing tasks. Robust multiplayer support allows gamers to battle head-to-head with up to eight friends or computer opponents over LAN or the Internet, including head-to-head and team play.
In search for his kidnapped sister, the young mage Aurax confronts evil wizards in battle to claim their powers and increase his repertoire of magical formulas.
