The most popular version of HoMaM games and even if it's not my favourite one, I can't say it can give a lot of fun.

Many cities with unique units, many campaign, easy to use map editor and graphics which are not bad after many many years.

Balance of cities is a bit off in my opinion tho.

Very advanced program for map paiting.

It can give a lot of fun and because of a lot of nations and a bit of randomness you can play many many times.
If only an DLC policy was better...

This is my favourite Civilization game.
Great menu music (Baba Yetu), good city management, where playing tall was as viable as playing wide.
Different leaders for some civilizations means you could play a bit different with each civilization.
Also it's important to mention good modbase, mods like Caveman2Cosmos or Realism Invictus still keep this game alive after many years.

As a downside combat is still pretty random (Doomstacks of units is a pretty popular strategy in this game). Also culture spreading borders, which allows you even to take enemy cities peacefully is fun, but not very logical.

Pretty interesting game to try and relax, while trying to spot every person, who wants to enter your great country on expired papers with forged stamps, typographical errors and with contraband on them.

One of better roguelike games on the market.
A lot of dialogues, interactions with characters, you can feel like they are "alive". Story is interesting, simple on the beggining, but starts being more deep later.

Also about gameplay, while RNG is in this game, it's not that big factor as in some other roguelike games. Killing stuff is satifying and you want to try again after death.

Definitely worth trying.
