Dunno how they did it, but there is a review of Magic & Mayhem 2 - The Art of Magic at PCZone UK. It received a high rating of 80%, and here's a bit from the review:

    Many of the levels can often be cat-and-mouse affairs with both sides holding equal amounts of places of power, resulting in you and the enemy wizard running all over the place recapturing places you just lost. This can be frustrating. Your creatures are generally not very strong, so even if you have a lot of them you can't kill off the enemy. Most levels are won by simply grabbing as many places of power as possible, luring the enemy wizard to you while you're standing on one of them (mana comes back faster when you stand on a place of power) and blasting the hell out of your foe while he's distracted by your minions.

Nevertheless, their summary is as positive as their rating:

    Art Of Magic is not going to win any awards for originality. It's a highly playable game, but it can be a bit repetitive after extended play. Having said that, it's an improvement in terms of presentation over the original title, and the gameplay that made the first game so addictive is still soundly in place. No classic then, but definitely worth a look, particularly if you haven't played the original.
