“One of the greatest old school turn based strategy games. Well, maybe not from a technical or strategic depth point of view, but man it's so much fun.”
“Classic Heroes of Might and Magic game play.”
“I've been playing this game since I was 8 and it's still fun to this day. Great for all skill levels. Relaxing and slow paced when needed, beautiful old school graphics, great soundtrack.”

“I absolutely LOVE this game! Probably my all-time favourite game. I have played it since i was a little kid, now i am 28 years old. Still not tired, never tired, one love for heroes of might and magic 3. Shame that…”
“I've been playing this game since I was 8 and it's still fun to this day. Great for all skill levels. Relaxing and slow paced when needed, beautiful old school graphics, great soundtrack.”
“A bit of a learning curve if you're not used to turn based RPG's. Be patient, read everything, pay attention to what you're doing! I love how you can upgrade your kingdom, this game is well polished and detailed in it's…”

“Strongly recommend this classic. HD version is great, great revamp (unlike some other "revamps" from other companies which I won't mention here)”
“You can run it on anything. It takes minimal power from your device if it uses a battery. Simple and easy to understand, very fun in co-op. The hot-seat local coop/PvP may be a thing from the past, but turn based games…”

““This game is older than some of the people playing it… and it’s still better than half the strategy games today.” Heroes of Might and Magic III is the reason “just one more turn” became a lifestyle. You start a map thinking it’ll take maybe an hour. Then suddenly it’s 3 AM,…”
