While this version boasts a beautiful HD sheen, it's incomplete, as it comes with it none of the expansion packs that were released so many years ago. Available for less is this same game, only more of it. time debate.” It especially rare though, when, as a reviewer, I can point to a simple money comparison regarding a game's value to show why this is simply not worth the time.Ĭoming in at $15, the value is simply not there. The word value is often thrown about in regards to games, normally in the context of the dread “dollars vs. Holding the same powerful sway as the Civilization games, Heroes is a game that screams for “just one more turn.” It's this reason that I feel almost scandalous in my stern condemnation of this HD version. Sure they're stacked on top of one another, so the only thing that lets you know there is more then one Archangel in that hex is a number printed next to them, but that number gets so BIG. While the beginning of each game feels a bit slow, especially when you are building up your cities and gathering your army, the end is a fantastic whirlwind of blood and magic as hundreds, or quite possibly thousands of underlings go to war on a hex grid map. The heroes move across an overworld and underworld, collecting gold, gaining experience, and acquiring artifacts. The armies range from your standard elves, dwarves and knights, all the way through to paragons of the underworld like demons and the undead.
Each hero belongs to a city type, determining both the type of hero and it's army of minions. For those unfamiliar with it, you take control of, depending on the map, any number of heroes, who each can control an army of underlings varying in both power and looks.
