Heroes of Might and Magic® 3: Complete

Great balance between simple gameplay but enough complexity to be interesting for hours on end. Not the deepest story or gameplay, but it isn't meant to be.

One of my all time favorite games. I play a lot of the modern games too but keep coming back to this turn-based classic for a change.

timeless masterpiece. always fun.

I played this for the first time in 2025, and was disappointed. The UI is very dated; it needs way more hotkeys, it's very unintuitive at times, and only seldom gives you specific information about what a talent or ability actually does. The music is bad. All of the above, I could excuse if the gameplay was great. It was not. It mostly involved me chasing around weak enemy armies who kept running away from me, until I finally caught them and forced them to do battle, only for them to run away from combat and teleport to their base for free. I don't care what the rationale for this dynamic is, it doesn't make for good gameplay. On to the positives: I loved the art direction for this game. They do a great job of portraying heroic fantasy, and for that, I'm giving it a higher score than I otherwise would have. I've played and thoroughly enjoyed similar games, but not this one. This game is primarily for old fans who played it way back when; I would not recommend it to new players today.

Even better than I remembered. still sucks me in and I love every minute of it.
