Heroes of Might and Magic® 3: Complete

1. Gameplay 10/10 Combat: it's all about unintentional murder of your own units with dragon-breath. Outside of Combat: an attempt to keep up birth rate high enough to supplement losses from dragon-breath. UI: discover hotkeys after 20 years of experience with the game. 2. Visuals 8/10 Fidelity: not too far from pixel-art. Art direction: You will never mistake it for anything else. 3. Sound 8/10 Music: only battle theme will drive you crazy after couple hundred hours. Speech: silence is golden as they say. Effects: everything is fine until Crusaders take their first steps. Environment: you will never think about it. 4. Story 5/10 Setting: when reading wiki you will question whether you've played the same game. Main Plot: I think it's some kind of plasticine figures battle royale. 5. Other 10/10 Performance: will run in pdf if you want. Fun: Download 'Horn's of the Abyss' which comes with HD mod. Play for just one hour. Then don't be surprised when you come out of your room to find people surprised you are still alive because couple days passed. Value: Best 2$ ever spent. SUMMARY: I don't think this game needs a summary. It goes frequently on sale where you can get it for pennies. It's a no-brainer purchase, especially since it still plays well and has active modding community.

I'm not as good at this game as others are. Seriously, in eastern Europe it is a requirement to have a Ph.D in this game and can only marry once you have beaten your inlaws in a best out of 5 random faction hotseat games. I maybe slightly exaggerating. This game is an utmost classic with 9 factions including the expansions, with so many maps and campaigns to play to keep you occupied. I also highly recommend checking out the Horn of the Abyss mod. It adds a brand new faction and maps and honestly feels like a 3rd expansion that New World Computing forgot to release. This is one of the greatest turn based strategy games ever made and holds up incredibly well.

I understand now why HoMM3 is considered one of the best games of all time.

Yes it's that old. Almost 22 years after release, HoMM3 remains one of the best strategy games. There's really no point in writing a review for this. If you're an old fan, get it, get the HD+ mod, and immerse yourselves once again. If you're a strategy fan and have never played this, then... WTF?!

Sans doute l un des meilleur jeux du genre ( si ce n est LE meilleur ) depuis que le genre existe La véritable note serait de 10 étoile sur 5 j ai cassé mon premier CD du jeux , rayé mon second , prêté ( et donc perdu ) mon troisième et la version GOG est ma quatrieme ...oui , j ai acheté 4 fois ce jeux ...je suis prêt a l acheter encore si je venais a perdre mon compte GOG ...ce jeux est carrément EXCEPTIONNEL ....et en plus il est rejouable et rejouable encore et encore
