Game had a lot of potential to be one of the best in series. Instead, it failed. It feels like unfinished product. Game is glitchy, very clunky, with frustrating controls, and it has great holes in storyline. There's moments where it shines. It feels like real adventure, sometimes reminds me od point-and-click games. There's moment with great immersive atmosphere. Music is fantastic! But closer to the end, from half of the game, things start to fall apart. I recommend it only for big TR fans.
Still great game. Addictive. Beautiful music and old school bitmap graphic. It will never get old. Four star because later HOMMs are even better. It would be great that heroes keep XP (at least) when starting new scenario. And, as I played campaign, I noticed that computer cheat slightly. Last scenario is very hard. I am not a great strategist, so I cheated in last scenario to be able to finish the game. Hot seat is much fun, as I remember when I played with friends back in 1996. Buy this game!
