Might and Magic IV: Clouds of Xeen

Might and Magic IV: Clouds of Xeen is a classic first-person role-playing game developed and published by New World Computing in 1992 for MS-DOS. Set in the high-fantasy world of Xeen, the game invites players to lead a party of adventurers across vast lands filled with dungeons, towns, and dangerous creatures. It features a deep character creation system, turn-based combat, and an expansive open world that was impressive for its time.

The game continues the tradition of the Might and Magic series, blending exploration, puzzles, and strategic battles with rich lore and humor. Players must uncover the mystery of the floating continent of Xeen and face the evil Lord Xeen who threatens to plunge the world into chaos. The colorful graphics, detailed environments, and engaging quest design made it a standout RPG of the early 1990s.

Clouds of Xeen is also notable for its unique ability to merge with its sequel, Might and Magic V: Darkside of Xeen, creating a massive combined adventure known as World of Xeen. This innovative feature allowed players to travel freely between two interconnected worlds, offering one of the most ambitious and memorable RPG experiences of the DOS era.
