46 of 46 · most liked firstit's one of the first games i fell in love with when i was a kid and somewhere along the line i picked it back up as a web-based game, so it remains one of the 2 games I'm halfway competent at still playing. (the other one is King's Bounty)
unlabelledView post →Game Boy Color has these wonderful ports (I guess they can be called official "demakes") of Heroes of Might & Magic games that feel like a missing link between Heroes and King's Bounty. First game is basically Heroes 1, but the second game is more like Heroes Greatest Hits.
unlabelledView post →The King's Bounty game are on deep discount on Steam, and if you like turn based my army of monsters fights yours combat it's really good. The story is such that I click click past it at this point. It's not bad or anything just trite and only sometimes amusing. But the games, solid fun.

I deeply appreciate the people who've popped by to see me play this game. I know it's probably not the most exciting thing in the world but it's very dear to me. ❤️

unlabelledView post →#03 King's Bounty (1/2) I know the cover looks like a cheap Wimmelbild game, but bear with me: imagine Heroes of Might and Magic blended with more RPG elements and one singular world and campaign. For me this improved the formula to perfection. The strategic element isn't limited to battles.

unlabelledView post →Most Hours in Game (non-MMO) I want to say King's Bounty 2. I played that for the first time earlier this year. Kind of similar to how when I watched The Acolyte I was like "someone made the exact show I want to watch," playing KB2 was like "someone made the EXACT game I want to play"

unlabelledView post →Still playing King's Bounty: The Legend and enjoying it. I got it on gog but looking at the steam forums I see that the developers actually listened when players pushed back on them adding a (prob spyware + ads) "launcher" to this 18 year old game. So that's good. steamcommunity.com/app/25900/ev...

unlabelledView post →That game is so awful but I think all of the Might and Magic console "exclusive" games were pretty bad. Looking at you, Crusaders of Might and Magic. That game is kind of closer to King's Bounty, but it still isn't fun to play.
unlabelledView post →I am so very upset this game series or this style of game where it is a Turn Based Strategy that you build an army combined with a commander and go on quests a kind of TBS / RPG hybrid with emphasis on the TBS. I miss King's Bounty and am sad it has no spiritual successor.

unlabelledView post →A little surprised to see that I seem to have been the only mention of Quest for the Dragon Bone Staff. It's a remake of King's Bounty (a PC game from 1990), but still stands out considerably to me of the PS2 games I played growing up.
