LOOK UPON MY DEFORMED FACE! 
I think it just has a good combination of nicely done pre-rendered 3D along with a really nice soundtrack, and a great amount of variance in how the game works which overall makes it great to replay over and over again. It was one of the few games I got working on the MSN Game Zone back in the day on my 56k modem where I of course lost every time.

The modding community has done a lot of brilliant stuff such as the HD patch, VCMI, and of course WoG which added tons of great features to it as well. I believe a bunch of Poles even got together to re-create the removed futuristic town type which 3DO got death threats for prior to release so it still has a vibrant and ambitious community even today.
