Heroes of Might and Magic III : The Restoration of Erathia

"--When Erathia's King is Murdered by traitors, he is resurrected as an undead warlord who leads a ruthless invasion of his former Kingdom. Little resistance is met until his daughter Catherine, Queen of Enroth, returns to her homeland commanding an army of elite Enrothian warriors.--" -The Heroes III Box

Heroes 3 is the most recent game in the Heroes series from New World Computing, and is by far the best yet! It is played much like the others in the series, but is much better. In Heroes 3, you have 8 new towns and castles, 16 different hero types and tons of new units to control and fight with. There are 6 campains and dozens of single scenarios to play. Plus, up to 8 players can compete through hotseat, LAN, or Internet Connection.

...so what do I think?

I am personally a huge fan of the Heroes of Might and Magic series, and could therefore gush about this great new sequel forever. Forever would take a while to type however, so i'll just write a short blurb about it's immense greatness. I really like the new creatures and towns, and the way everything has been so graphically enhanced (for HOMM). There are a wide variety of different single scenarios to choose from, and there are 6 great new campaigns to conquer.

In conclusion, I think this game is great, and if you're a true Heroes fan, you'll love this game. I give it 5 K-Stars.
