Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era is a strong comeback for a strategy RPG series with few modern competitors, though it could explain itself better
Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era marks a return for the strategy RPG series, developed by Unfrozen with support from Ubisoft and Hooded Horse, and featuring series creator Jon Van Caneghem. While the game offers familiar gameplay mechanics and a bustling world, reviewers note that its presentation can be jarring and the interface could be clearer, particularly regarding combat depth and city management. Despite these criticisms, the game is seen as a promising comeback for a niche genre, with potential for deeper strategic play as players become more familiar with its systems.
