Heroes of Might and Magic® 3: Complete

This is very much a game of my past, having played it as I was growing up and then lost it while I went through the motions of high school, university, career etc. It's absolutely a game that has stood the test of time and is just as enjoyable now as it was when I first discovered it however. Nothing about the game has really aged, its distinctive graphical style transitioned gently into 'retro' without being jarring, the sound is as good as any and I still regularly listen to heroes orchestra (check them out if you haven't), its story as immersive and fun as it was on the first play through and its replayability is just as good all these years later. Its cheap, fun, immersive, will play or just about anything - I cant recommend it enough if you like turn based strategy.

King of the TBS hill. It rarely gets better, if at all, though it's not without its flaws. Some of those flaws are alleviated through mods (Horn of the Abyss would be my recommendation). Other design "flaws" that persist are essentially features you'll just have to deal with--no game is literally perfect. Age of Wonders is the only series that comes close to surpassing this, imo. The newly released Songs of Conquest is also a worthy contender. None can quite muster the strength to overcome the master, however. Not even this game's sequels. There's a reason this game is still played my many, decades after its release, and consistently holds a spot on GOG's bestseller listing.

Thank you so much GOG.com for bringing this much valuable game to our era. I am very glad it works with Windows 11. This is probably my favourite game of all time. Everything is beautiful: the art, the castles, the artifacts, the creatures, the sounds, the music, the vibe... I love every detail of this game. I started playing it many years ago, before 2006.

I have a Dell Windows 7 64 bit, 6 G RAM bought Nov. 2010. I downloaded GOG's Heroes of Might and Magic III Complete today and installed it as instructed. It plays great. No glitches, clean install, game graphics look great, great sound, the game runs smoothly -- and no CD disk or copy protection needed to run. Thanks.

A must have! That's all! I already have it in 3 or 4 CD/DVD copies including the "Might & Magic Heroes collection" but I'll buy it nonetheless. It's very long and has high replay value. When it was released I had no idea of what turned based strategy was. I bought the 2000 edition, I think, with its first extension "Shadow of Death" included and loved it from the start. I already was familiar with the M&M universe having played Might & Magic 6-8 at the time and I liked the idea of prolonging the experience with a strategy game that would add content to the whole story and give me the opportunity to linger a little longer in Enroth. The graphics are nice, the story is good and Paul Anthony Romero's enchanting music only adds the final touch to this truly beautifully crafted game. Regarding the story, one has to know that from Might&Magic 6 on, the original M&M RPG series derives from the Heroes universe, which marks a real turn from previous releases. After this game, I wanted more and played Heroes 4, 5. I also tried the previous ones but this opus is clearly my favourite. In fact, turned based is, I think, the best way of playing strategy since it fully gives the opportunity of building, well...a strategy both in and out of combat. You can think and carefully plan every move. It can really be challenging at times. This game shaped my conception of turned based strategy in the same way as Might & Magic 6 shaped my conception of RPG. Which means I always compare any new tbs game with this one. I can forget it for long periods of time but I always go back to it even today.
