Heroes of Might and Magic is a classic turn-based strategy game that blends exploration, resource management, kingdom building, tactical combat and fantasy role-playing. Players control mighty heroes who roam a fantasy world, build and manage towns, gather resources, recruit armies and fight opposing forces.
The game is based on strategic decision-making, not fast-paced action. Players explore the map, capture key locations, develop their kingdoms and prepare their armies for battle; every move counts. Throughout the campaign heroes can level up, develop their skills and become more powerful.
Heroes of Might and Magic combined fantasy adventure with deep strategy mechanics, becoming one of the most recognisable names in turn-based strategy. There is still appeal for players who like to work several moves ahead and to manage armies and resources.

Story
Heroes of Might and Magic is set in a fantasy world where various factions battle for territory and power. Players guide heroes through vast maps, completing objectives, exploring unknown territories, gathering resources and fighting enemy armies.
The campaign features fantasy kingdoms, magical beasts, castles and mighty heroes. Depending on the scenario, players may have to take enemy towns, defend their own, find important artefacts or kill enemy forces.
The strategy gameplay itself strengthens the story line, with each campaign offering a sense of progression as heroes grow stronger and kingdoms expand.
Gameplay
Heroes of Might and Magic features turn-based strategy gameplay. Players explore the world through heroes, manage towns, recruit creatures, gather resources and fight enemy armies in tactical battles.
Players usually start a scenario with few resources and few units. They have to explore the map, looking for mines, treasures, settlements and other valuable places.
Resources are needed to build towns and attract stronger creatures. Players should not spend too much of their money on one thing as it will limit their options elsewhere.
The combat is separate from the main exploration map. During the fight between the two armies, the game switches to a tactical battlefield where players take turns moving their units and using special abilities.
