 Enjoyable Title August 18, 2009

I've played several of the HOMM games and this one did not disappoint me. I found it to be quite enjoyable and rich in graphics and story. I'm still playing it and looking forward to trying out all the different paths and options.

One of the Ten Best Turn Based Games at very cheap price! July 27, 2010
Michael Montgomery
The HOMM V Epic Collection is an amazing value, because it includes the basic game plus both expansions for under $20! This is hundreds of hours of compaign play, in addition to playing against real people.
I consider HOMM V one of the top 10 turn based games computer games ever! So this makes it a particularly great value at this price. Others on my list of top turn based computer games includes HOMM 3 (but not HOMM 4), Masters of Orion 2 (But NOT MOO3), etc. Considering that there are not that many truly great turn based games, HOMM V is a very welcome addition!
I find the user interface very easy to use. It is extremely configurable. For those who like the HOMM 3 interface, there is an option to configure the interface to look like HOMM 3. You can display the battle grid or not. You can display move distances or not. You can have a 3D view or not. 5 minutes in configuration could eliminate about 99% of the interface complaints of other reviewers.
I think the graphics and sound are good, too. It would be nice if those who were complaining had something specific to mention, instead of just saying it was not to their taste.
The scenarios have 5 levels of selectable difficulty. If the reviewer was playing on the easiest level and was still having trouble, then he clearly did not understand the strategy at all. I have won all of the campaigns on the hardest difficulty, so I know it is doable. Yes, it is very difficult, but the hardest difficulty SHOULD BE very difficult. I found the Normal difficulty to be very straightfoward; even a casual gamer should be able to win on Normal. And my young children can win on Easy.
The only legitimate issue I saw raised by any previous reviewer is that the game comes unpatched. I agree with the reviewer; a final edition of a series ought to be released fully patched. This is a major oversight, and normally I would take off 1 star.
BUT this product is otherwise so amazing in terms of game play AND value, even with the patch issue it is still worth 5 full stars. It is just that good!
Buy it ... August 12, 2010

HOMM are some of the best RPG games on the market, my HOMM hook was set back with Heroes 2. I have played every version. If you plan on playing Heroes 5 buy the three in one pack. Trust me if you're a long time HOMM player or just new to the game, you will love the addition of the new races and point of view that Heroes 5 takes.
Enjoy!
 great game, low budget packaging August 8, 2009

I was only looking for the expansions for this game. I found this and ordered it instead however because this was cheaper than buying just the expansions. I ended up giving my original game to a friend. The game is totally complete. The expansions are great. All of the patches are already completed. The downside of this deal is that they did cut back on productin costs in every way possible. No manual is inclded and disks were loose to slide around inside the pack. There was no damage to the disks themselves though. The instructions are included on the CD's in PDF format. Also there is an included is a disk for 3 month trial for an internet security program. The expansions themselves are very excelent, they add so much more than just new maps and charactors to the game. You are getting about a $70 value when our purchase this set.
