A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Everyone always praises 3 but I grew up playing 2. I have nothing against HoMM 3 and enjoy it quite a bit, I just prefer HoMM 2 when I wanna get that nostalgia kick.

Still, amazing games.

It's the open source reimplementation of HoMM2. It's fully playable, although the reimplemented AI plays much, much smarter than the original, which can be an upside or a downside for you.

There is also an android version, it works great on a tablet!
