Heroes of Might and Magic® 2: Gold

I was tired of finding my CD for HOMM2, so I've waited for months for it to show up on GOG -- I think I'll be playing HOMM forever, and I look forward to finally finishing it with the GOG copy. This is a turn-based game that is a huge jump from HOMM1 and set the standard for all the HOMM games to come, and which was perhaps never surpassed by other strategy franchises.

This was the game which turned me into a PC gaming addict. Up to the time i played HMM2 i wondered how people spend so much time for a game on pc. Then i met HMM2 and it was all clear. I have not played HMM2 with expansion . Hmmm better install it asap. Please do not hesitate to purchase and play this old game. You will be amazed how addictive it can be...

Heroes of Might and Magic 2 is perhaps the best turned-based strategy game ever. It doesn't have the wildly thick numbers of HoMM 3 while not dumbing it down. You get to recruit heroes from taverns, level them up, and fight in the worlds displayed in Might and Magic 6 and 7. Your heroes can recruit creatures from the wilderness and your towns -- which you also level up. The one minor down-side is that you often know exactly how you want to build your city. The game could practically built it for you. But since it takes 4 seconds to build something, it's hardly a nuisance at all. If you haven't tried this one, you're doing yourself a big unfavor. So un-unfavor yourself and buy this gem.

I own two hard disk copies of the game already and i purchased it here to have a digital copy just in case the disks would break. i have been playing this game since i was 7 right around the time it was first released and 14 years later i am still a very active player and fan. I've beaten the game numerous of times but it never gets old. Being a Highly addictive game with graphics that were incredible back in the day i still dont find anything wrong with them. For the years of enjoyment its given me i give this game a 10/10 5 outta 5 stars 100% whatever u like, i absolutely love this game.

When I saw the opportunity to get this game again without having to mess around with dos box, I jumped on it! I am extremely happy with the quality. It plays great, just like I remember it. Not to hard, not too easy and consuming way too much of my time! Highly recommend.
