魔法门之英雄无敌3：完整版

For many people, the best of the HOMM series and understandably so. It took everything that already worked in the brilliant HOMM2 and built on it - the graphics are better, the music is superb and there's even more variety in the gameplay.

It's like I'm 15 again, gaming until early hours of the morning on a school night and telling myself 'just one more turn'. This version works using wine on a chromebook too, as it's been updated from the 16bit installer days.

Things that are annoying and clearly imperfect from today's perspective: 1) Game mechanics is of the 'death spiral' kind - if your early performance is suboptimal (not bad, just not perfect), the gameplay becomes exponentially harder later on. Trying to work around your past mistakes (e.g. one of the heroes/towns lost) isn't an option in most cases. You will end up loading games a lot. 2) Game is click-intensive, i.e. you will end up doing the same things, repeatedly, that require (unecessary) clicking through a bit too many options/sub-menus. 3) Some scenarios containt a 'catch' - an element you should be aware of but aren't informed until it's too late - e.g. time limit (or similar constraint). Replaying them for this specific reason ruins he immersion.

But you'll need mods to make it worth your time. Here's the thing, this game is a classic that's been continuously played since it came out. The problem is that hardware has moved on and now you need at least the HD mod to make this playable on modern HD screens. And if resolutions keep on going up even that might not be enough. It's a great strategy game with incredible depth and pixel art that still holds up 20 years later. The UI needs a bit of a massage via a mod or two but all in all you couldn't do any better when it comes to turn based tactics. Worse? yes. Better? no.
