The story behind the game is as simple as it can get: four generals fight for control of an unruled land, each representing their own faction. The first game in the series, Heroes of Might and Magic: A Strategic Quest saw the light of the day in 1995.
Having started as a spin-off to party-based RPG Might and Magic, Heroes quickly gained popularity due to its simple yet graceful strategic gameplay. Heroes of Might and Magic is a classic turn-based strategy series with a rich history going back to the 80-s.
