If you did, what did you think of it?

Apparantly all the original versions are buggy:

"Unfortunately, the game had a serious bug that stopped you defeating the shadowlords in their citadel. I'm afraid the combat sometimes got it's maths all wrong, so you could get defeated by attacking their citadel with 300 soldiers against 30 shadowlord forces. I have tracked down the speccy, cpc, ST & PC versions of this game, but they all have the same bug Crying or Very sad I'd be interested to know if the Amiga one has th same bug? "

Anyone know about this?

Also, anyone tried the remake? http://www.classic-retro-games.com/Sorcerer-Lord_426.html

Ahh shit... it looks good for an early 90's game. Sucks I didn't have time to play it.

It's any good? The remake I mean.

Simple mechanics, story... what story?

Was good for what it was but even nostalgia won't make me play it today. Have gone through the same story/mechanics too many times already.

Looks a bit like War of the Lance, except WotL had diplomacy, the Dragonlance novels quest running on the background, and stuff. This one seems too basic and minimalistic to be exciting.
