### 3/5 — Very fun, much like Heroes II, however

*2017-04-26, version 1.05*

Very fun, much like Heroes II, however the gameplay is not as intricate or as fun.  I would love to be able to do multiplayer- and maybe there is a MP feature, but I just haven't figured it out?  But definitely worth 99 cents.

### 4/5 — Good game

*2017-04-09*

A cheap and simple game similar to heroes of might and magic and kings bounty. Runs smoothly on my device.

### 5/5 — Lots of fun

*2016-08-02, version 1.05*

Good balance - very addictive. Casual fun that you can do for one minute or a couple of hours. Well worth the price. Hopefully they will develop more of these types of games.

### 5/5 — kings bounty

*2016-04-13*

It's basically kings bounty from the sega mega drive which is awesome because that's exactly what I've been looking for. It's been modernised a bit but still got the basic elements. So far I'm impressed with it.

### 5/5 — Exactly what you'd expect

*2016-02-14, version 1.05*

Turn-based RPG. Fun, decent graphics, good way to spend a few hours.

### 5/5 — Nice

*2016-01-28*

Good game

### 5/5 — 👌

*2015-11-02*

Супер!

### 5/5 — Like Heroes of Might and Magic

*2015-09-19*

Great game. Is the best Heroes of Might and Magic type game I've seen for mobile. Similar army types. Easy to use controls. Doesn't have the castle building, but is still fun without. Turn based play flows a little better than homm.

### 4/5 — Addictive..

*2015-09-04, version 1.05*

Gotta stop playing at some point and get some shut eye.. Nice job guys.

### 5/5 — Awesome TBS game

*2015-08-20, version 1.05*

Simple but a lot of fun.

### 5/5 — Really Really Good

*2015-08-20, version 1.05*

One of the best turn based strategy games of its kind. On any platform. Excellent work

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2015-07-05, version 1.05*

Played 100s of hours of might and magic on the PC but the mobile game seems flat and lifeless.  Only been playing this for a few hours yet it seems to have breathed new life into this type of game.

### 4/5 — Great Game!

*2015-06-24, version 1.05*

I love it! It's fun, not too easy, not too hard!

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2015-06-10, version 1.05*

Best 99 cents game ever, keeps you on your toe.  The game is very simple. Fast paced when you want it to be. Keeps you busy

### 5/5 — Fun

*2015-06-09, version 1.05*

Lot of fun but really hard to go through without losing your whole army. Guess that is what keeps it fun

### 5/5 — Very very funny

*2015-02-24*

If you like RPG, dont miss. Like Heroes of Might and Magic.

### 5/5 — best game company

*2015-02-23, version 1.05*

I like your company games.
I hope you make many as you as possible!!!

### 4/5 — Great heroes 2 spin off

*2015-02-22, version 1.05*

Nice game!!!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Не интересно

*2020-01-16*

Бессмысленна

### 1/5 — Go play Braveland instead

*2015-10-20*

This game is poorly balanced. Even on easy, the AI has a seemingly unending supply of scrolls. While you can see (unhelpful) descriptions of how many enemies you might fight in a battle (several? pack? lots? which is more?), you certainly have no sense of power of the battle relative to your team (and it seems two different battles with the same enemy types have different power). It makes no sense. The battles are hardly strategic (can't control path, can't choose battle order, etc. ). And when you get wiped out and have already cleaned up a bunch of easy battles, building up a new squad can be annoying, at best.

### 1/5 — Где русский!

*2014-09-14*

Искренне не понимаю! Как отечественные разработчики делают игры не на великом и могучем русском языке! А в место этого делают ее на английском, им что американцы платят!?

### 1/5 — Одноразовая

*2014-07-01*

В игру можно играть только 1,2,3 раза и все

### 1/5 — Расстроился

*2014-06-30*

Не качественный ремейк

### 1/5 — Ебота

*2014-06-28*

Героев 4 в App Store

### 1/5 — 한글화좀...

*2014-06-28*

부탁해요

### 2/5 — Decent, but not good enough

*2014-10-04, version 1.05*

I just couldn't get past the graphics which aren't very good. The battles aren't very well done either. But I respect the effort that went into building the world of the game.

### 2/5 — Way too hard..

*2014-07-16*

Got owned on normal, so tried easy and still way too hard..the fee for army every week is ridiculous, hard to get money as it is, the armies in castles, crypts, etc are too hard, nearly lost all guys fighting first castle.. The little Mage guy that walks around on map casts so many spells..too much crazy op guys..Also blows that there's no save feature

### 2/5 — Meh

*2014-07-01, version 1.05*

Not sure if it is random but the third bounty was in the frozen north. The vampires and paladins are elite units and ate me alive... A bit unfair for easy mode. Also kind of cheap that 999 peasants died to 50 Druids. Basically upgrade or perish.  Didn't even occur to me that tombs and beaten castles had units. There just wasn't enough units or really anything to make me play again. You max out level with about half the gAme still left so you are just an over  powered guy pawning everything lol

### 5/5 — RPG

*2023-04-24*

Very good better than expected lots of play and different cool

### 5/5 — Great game

*2020-06-22*

This is a great game to play. I have beaten it already a year ago and now I’m playing it again.

### 5/5 — Simple but addictive fun!

*2019-04-01*

Graphically very basic but HoMM style addiction present and correct.

### 5/5 — Fun HOMM clone

*2018-05-01*

More simplistic but fun heroes of might and magic type game. The characters and units feel the same. The battles feel fluid and very much resemble the nostalgic feel of the original game. The strategy is streamlined to cut out the castle building and money management. The resources are also not present but it feels the same as the old game. More polished perhaps. Definitely recommend you try it if you like HOMM!  Portable and digestible on an iPhone/iPad.

### 5/5 — Not bad at all

*2017-11-24, version 1.06*

It's close enough to homm to satisfy, worth playing

### 5/5 — Good simplistic game

*2017-11-23*

This is the perfect game I’ve been looking for! Get the bundle all the games are worth it.

### 5/5 — Well worth the price

*2017-10-28*

Nice simple turn based strategy

### 5/5 — Great old time game

*2017-09-06*

Reminds me of the endless hours of Heroes of Might and Magic I used to play back on Windows95. Best $ spent on iPhone game.

### 5/5 — Better then the new one!

*2017-07-27*

Love this little game especially for the price! Bear in mind it's built for a mobile device so the fact that you can even create armies with a large pool of varying unit types is pretty awesome among other things. Either way totally worth the $1!

### 5/5 — Superb game

*2016-09-08, version 1.05*

Really fun game very much like the original kings bounty game.  If you like turn based strategy games, this is a must
