5.0 out of 5 stars One of those games you can always turn to for a good time., October 15, 2000

There are a few games out there that can stand the test of time and replayability. This is one of them. The HoMM franchise has been around for some time, and fans and non-fans alike of the normally dry turn-based strategy genre have discovered that this game is a lot of fun. Whether you're looking for a quick game, or one that will last hours, HoMM3 Complete can and will satisfy your needs. Bottom line, this is a wonderful game.

For those not familiar with the franchise I'll elaborate. You take control of one or more heroes within the game. Each hero has a class (wizard, paladin, etc.) which corresponds with a specific type of town and commands an army of creatures. Both the towns and the creatures you command go through a wide array of upgrades, and your hero/heroine can discover relics which can improve him/her as well. In a turn-based format you strive to conquer random monsters as you explore the expansive maps, as well as your foes who at the same time are building and fighting as you are. Single player includes quick play based upon your settings, and mission based scenarios as well. Game include multiplayer play as well.

So capture those enemy towns, discover the ultimate artifact, and command an army of titans and dragons! This game is easy to learn, and quick to pick up and/or put down. It's replayability is very high, and it's one title that will be on your system for a long time.

Heroes of Might and Magic 3 is one of my favorite games. There's enough variety in it to keep you busy for hours, and no two scenarios happen the same way twice. The Heroes of Might and Magic 3 Complete gives you even more things to do.

I'd never played either expansion pack; so getting them included in with the original game was nice. I'd played most of the original scenarios to death, and the expansion packs have given me a lot more to play around with. Plus, the addition of a conflux makes even the original scenarios more interesting.

There are only two things I could consider a possible drawback for the game: the first time you install it and run it, you have to go through the introduction. That's nice the first time, but if you have to re-install it more than a few times, the introduction gets old. My other complaint is the starting single campaign scenario isn't one of the easier ones, which can make it hard to get used to the first time around.

Heroes 3 is a good game, appropriate for a variety of ages. The minor drawbacks don't take away from the game at all, and it's fairly intuitive, so you can figure things out without the need of a bunch of books.

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Heroes of Might & Magic 3 Complete (CD-ROM)

i like this game better than Heroes4- i guess because i started playing it years ago and just like this 'original' like gameplay.
i think this game is one of those 'must haves' that you will always come back to and play over time- i have single player games saved from 3 years ago.any well-rounded game collection should have this title in it.
i'm 32 and still have a friend over for a hot seat game once in awhile.
