The last great installment of the Heroes of might and Magic Series. Played this wayyy back in 99, and dumped endless hours into this one. For its time, there was nothing like HOMM 7, and if you can get past the graphics, it is a huge world with memorible locations, cool monsters and fun lore. The deat of New World Computing by 3d0 begins with this game, which was very good for being a sequel to HOMM 6 forced out a YEAR later by money grubbing suits. It was very sad to see the studio close- the world and lore behind HOMM is as deep as Game of Thrones (its true), 19 years in the making. If you havent played this classic, you should atleast pick it up to remeber a great development studio. This is undoubtedly the last solidly great installment of the series. I give it four gold Shoggoths and two silver Nightgaunts. The magic is cool, the locations are memorable, the monsters are scary. Character grinding is rewarding and fun, quest acess easy and understandable. For 1999 it was absolutely brilliant.
