'While HOMM5 retains much that fans once cherished about this series, its imaginative yet hamstrung shift to 3D, poor A.I., clunky interface, stingy multiplayer maps, and intimidating bug list render what could have been the rebirth of a phenomenal strategy game merely an average rehash.'

'On the other hand, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and New World Computing should be very flattered indeed. Despite how derivative it is, Heroes of Might and Magic V is still a good, addictive game. It just isn’t a very new one.'

'While I adore the Heroes franchise, I feel that Nival played it a little too safe with this one. After seeing them show so a bit of originality in their other titles, this feels too much like development-by-the-numbers.'

'There isn’t anything new here, but the format works as well as ever, and the 30 campaign missions are good for over 60 hours of playing time.'

'It's not a great leap forward for gaming; but in terms of reassurance and welcome traditionalism, it's a small step for cosiness.'

'Building up a huge army, amassing tons of money and resources and beating those pesky enemy heroes is what it’s all about.'

'Hardly a turn passes in the game where you aren't faced with a potentially crucial decision, making for addictive, "just one more turn" strategy gaming at its best. And the best Heroes game since "HOMM III."'

'If you love deep, complex strategy games and fun online multiplayer action, you can’t go wrong with Heroes of Might & Magic V. What it lacks in technological flash it makes up for in smart, well-balanced gameplay.'

'Nival nailed down the Heroes flavor, but there just isn't quite enough of it.'

'This latest installment captures much of the charm and addictiveness of the other excellent fantasy-themed turn-based strategy games that earned Heroes of Might and Magic its fiercely dedicated fan base.'
