This is a good game and a classic. You can't play HoMM 2 or 3 without trying this one first to see where the sequels comes from and what the designers' changes through time. HoMM 3 is best though, even if compared to the crappy Ubisoft version with useless and annoying 3D graphics (always need to turn camera, which shouldn't be necessary in such a game... it's not a first person shooter UBISOFT! Go back making your FPS and leave our great games alone!). Buy this game if not just to play it, then to complete your HoMM franchise. It is a jewel... especially at the price it is sold here!
A good classic. A tough game that is not only based on power but also on strategy. The story is nice too and is loyal to the novel's universe. Worth buying if you are an action/adventure game fan. Character progression is slow though, don't expect to bring down asteroids from space to smash your enemies, that won't happen. But, magic is quite interesting in this game and in that universe.
I just like Heroes of Might and Magic III, so this game, for me, is just adding more sugar on the cake. If I did not own the original HoMM3 Complete edition, I would buy it and not this game. It is still good though, buy it if you are a hardcore fan of the franchise... especially at the low price GOG is selling it!!!
M&M8 is a good sequel, not the best of all times, but good. I think the new things they added are decent enough to interest the fans. The fluidity of the game remains the same as M&M 6 and 7, smooth and steady. The graphics are slightly better, but if you're a fan, you don't care much because you play M&M for the thrill not the looks. I recommend this if you have liked any its predecessors... especially at the low low price of GOG.
This game is tough. Tougher than Heroes of M&M 3. Try it and you'll see. I also think that GOG's price is more than fair on this one, so buy it! I own the original copy of this game, gold version too. :)
Unlike M&M X from the new crappy Ubisoft (who is trying to ruin the franchise with its crappy games), this is a good game and is quite loyal to the franchise. I like the fluidity and how you improve your characters. There are more stuff in this one than in the 6th. I think 3DO should have stayed focused on what caused them to have success instead of changing they recipes like they did with Heroes of M&M IV, a complete disaster and very crappy games (they tried to copy on the game called Disciple, which is heavy on your brain and once finished, you really don't want to play again unlike Heroes of M&M III). Anyways, if you like the franchise or action-adventure games, buy this one, it's worth GOG's price.
Good game. Starts easy but becomes quite tough as the empire expands and the barbarian threat increases. The 4th of the franchise is also good. Both are worth buying if you like the genre I think.
These games are the core of what M&M saga is about. Pity though you cannot bring your old characters from one to the other. But that's just me and it is a minor thing. Instead of wasting your money on a modern piece of crap by Ubisoft (M&M X, or so they call it... should have been M&M 1.5 so primitive its design is), buy this and you'll have much more fun than M&M X. Stay away from Ubisoft modern products, the company has lost itself and has become something very crappy... I miss my Ubisoft of the 1990s. :'( Anyways, buy this if you like open world fantasy action-adventure games with character progression. It's nice, I still play this every year or two.
This game is a million times better than the crappy Theme Park. It is both funny, entertaining, interesting and enjoyable to play. Everything runs smoothly... and unlike modern games, this one was finished when it came out, there were few bugs... if not none at all!
This is a cheap wannabe clone of D&D Heroes and falls quite short of it, just like the other games on GOG that is of the same genre. You only go through it once, because you really don't want to play it again so limited it is. The story is cliché. The game itself if quite boring after a while, very repetitive gameplay. Very little to do in the game aside from fighting.
