3DO made a failure and a waste of money by making this game

Why did I buy this game? I need to find a good game,but when I turn to 3DO, I get a game which is ultimately boring, and is hardly understandable. This is why I would rate this stupid, dumb, game as a 1 (if I could I would make it a 0) out of 5.

A fantasy on your computer.

This is a very cool set. I tried the first one, but it's not very good when you look at HOMM2 & HOMM3. The graphics, gameplay, and units that are available are much better than the first one. The gameplay is very challenging and if you sit back and try to build up your forces, they are doing the same thing, and since they always have a head start on you, you are just settign yourself up for disaster. There are many scenarios to play and you can also just play a map against the computer if you want. Has map editor so you can make your own maps to play. This game can be replayed time after time.

Near Perfect

My husband and I have been playing HOMM since the original version came out, in '92 (?I think?). We've bought every new version as it has come out without a regret. Hour for hour, these games are undoubtedly the best game value we've ever gotten. Even today, all three versions are still playable, still fun, and a staple on our home machines. While dissimiliar, this game is on par with the original Warcraft, with respect to playability.

HOMM, HOMM2, and HOMM3 are strategy games involving logistics, exploration, and tactics.

Be careful, time really flies while you play this GREAT game

I have played many games with my kids and on my own in the past -- including the great Zelda series. This is by far the BEST of any role playing game! My son and I started out with the first HOMM game and we purchased every single installment upon release!

Fantasy lovers will especially love this role playing/strategy game! The graphics are fabulous! The scenarios and campaigns are fascinating. My favorite games are the campaign senarious where one successful, hard-won conquest builds upon another. You have to really think and plan to build up your heroes' abilities as well as their kingdoms.

One caution, this game can be hazardous to your time -- you become so absorbed in it that hours pass in a flash!

One of best strategy games

Besides HOMM 1, 2, 3, and Expansion Pack for HOMM 2, the Millennium Edition also includes "King's Bounty", an early DOS game from the same designer that bears great resemblance to HOMM. This package is worth more than it costs considering the older games have become hard to find.

Much of HOMM's success I think is due to its ingenious combat system. Combats in many turn-based games are often dull and repetitive (a major reason why real-time strategy games have become so successful). But combats in HOMM offer *endless* possibilities. Your every attack depends on a large number of factors, from little things like the order of your troops' alignment to big things like your hero's morale, luck, strength, etc, to the intangible factors like the roughness of the terrain, and the timing of your and your opponent's spellcasting. If game design could be called an art form, then the design of this combat system would be a great example.

If I have to carp, the computer AI for HOMM 1 and 2 could be better. Computer opponents would stubbornly go after ranged attackers during combat (something you could use to your advantage). And sometimes computer opponents would build the most advanced castle, and then just walk away with you nearby. Thankfully, all 3 HOMM games offer multi-player options.

Incredible Stragety Game!

This turn based game package, yes I said turn based not real time, is extremely addictive. These games have a huge selection of heroes, artifacts & monsters that you can personally control. Use your hero to scour the land in search of artifacts, magic spells, gold & monsters to either join your army or conquer. Take over castles and towns to further strengthen your tactical position, improve your land and holdings. Game play is endless. Games have a vast array of single scenarios that you can choose from or you can test your luck with other gamers on-line or across a network. If you love strategy games, definitely treat yourself to these very addictive games. Hours of enjoyment and well worth the price!

My best friend has this game and she forced me to play it. I've been trying to get a copy ever since. The graphics and the possibilities are amazing. A must have.
