"Awesome - the game HOMMV should have been"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I loved this game. While it didn't really break any new ground, playing it was delightful and really fun, something lacking from a lot of modern games these days.

If you've played Heroes of Might and Magic series, you will be pretty familiar with the way this game plays out. I've been playing it for days yet feel like I haven't even scratched the surface yet.

One of my favourite parts of this game is how you can encounter battles that are much too tough for you, and yet can choose to come back to them later. This gives you a realised sense of progression through the game.

"Excellent"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

A little known gem of a game which deserves a lot more attention! Comparable to HoMMV but excellent in its own right. Many hours of fun and addictive gameplay with great, colourful graphics.

The blend of real time movement on the adventure map and turn based combat really works well, which was a pleasant surprise.

"A Surprising Delight to Play"
5 stars"

This one's a little gem!

The graphics are beautiful, it runs fast, and it's actually quite addictive and fun to play.

I played kings bounty back int he day on my old Sega, so i was a bit hesitant that this was a rehash RPG… But it's not… this is a real winner with some new takes on interface, and game play that i haven't seen before.

Don't blame me if you keep wanting to have “just one more fight” at 3am before going to bed. :)

Description

King's Bounty: The Legend is a fantasy saga, an exciting blend of role-playing adventure and tactical combat, stirring classic memories of the legendary "King's Bounty" game.

A hero (warrior, mage or paladin), and an army of his loyal companions in arms travel across a huge continent composed of dozens of linked locations. Setting kings upon the throne, overthrowing them, saving princesses from the claws of dragons, searching for pirates on the high seas, finding treasure chests, vanquishing villains who are attempting world domination… These are the everyday challenges the player - the Hero - will face in King’s Bounty: The Legend.

Your character travels in real-time across land and water, underground, and across the skies searching for treasure, finding equipment, developing multiple skills and fulfilling the orders of kings to further his career. When fighting enemies, the game switches into Tactics mode. You can control your troops in the battle arena, use your spell book and summon powerful Spirits of Rage.

As the plot unveils, the player will come across exciting puzzles and mysteries, and make many difficult decisions. Will you make alliances with a powerful necromancer or steal from the Dwarven treasury? Just never break the oath you gave to your King. He does not forget or forgive such sleights easily.
