Humble beginnings, but hours of fun

Heroes of Might and Magic 1 tends to get rated lowly due to the existence of the sequels, especially 2 and 3, but the game stands on its own very well. It's a great introduction to the series, as the lack of many secondary mechanics makes the game a lot simpler to pick up than its sequels. There is still plenty of strategising and figuring things out though, and it feels really good when you successful make the right decisions. The game isn't as balanced as its sequels (although even the sequels have some extremely overpowered stuff), but you can still win no matter what your faction is. Definitely a worthwhile pick if you're looking to get into the series or already into it.
