There's no denying that King's Bounty resemble Heroes of Might & Magic a lot, but it also offers much more to that. HOMM gives you mission maps with all the same elements scattered over them. I always got bored after a couple of missions - the world felt distant and repetitive. King's Bounty, on the contrary, has one big world with new things, characters and creatures always waiting to be discovered. It feels much cozier in the KB universe. There's a plot line that you follow constantly, not just in the movies between the missions. Add to that a good share of humour and funny allusions. To me it's the best game in the genre.
