Gameplay in MM6 occurs in the land of Enroth, on a map divided into 15 sectors. Along the way, the party will speak with NPC's and will be given quests to complete, which will earn them extra gold pieces and experience. As gameplay begins, the first task of the adventurer is to equip his party with weapons and armor by visiting shops in the town of New Sorpigal, the starting point of the game. Each class has its own special skills with base skill values, and the player is given a number of additional points he can distribute among skills as he chooses. Character classes including the Knight, Cleric and Sorcerer, along with three hybrid classes of each pair of these classes, must be selected for the party. To begin, the player must generate a party of four characters to take on this adventure. Whether the gamer is interested in building up his party to take advantage of better weaponry or more powerful spells, encountering over 170 different entities in the form of monsters and non-player characters (NPC's), or just romping around the countryside exploring towns, dungeons and caverns, this game has got everything. For those who have experienced the delight of playing TSR's original Dungeons and Dragons fantasy role-playing game, Might and Magic VI comes closest to reproducing that kind of a gaming atmosphere on the PC.
