Heroes V is a tough call. On one hand, you can't ignore the game's various shortcomings, the lack of editing tools and failing multiplayer. But on the other hand, it's hard to dismiss a game that eats up late night hours faster than G-String Diva reruns on HBO, leaving you desperate to finish a campaign mission at 3AM before you pass out. Despite some obvious flaws and failure to try anything spectacularly new, the fun in Heroes of Might and Magic V manages to win out.
The second is at Games Radar with an overall score of 8/10:
It's been a long couple of years since the last Heroes installment - and a worrisome transformation into the third dimension. The long wait is now over: our gaping mouths declared it officially worth it after seeing the startlingly gorgeous Heroes world. If you are just looking for a summer fling, be warned: Heroes has enough depth and sheer gameplay hours to wrap you around its finger for years. For fans of the Might and Magic series and turn-based strategy aficionados alike, Heroes V can't be missed.
And the third is at RewiredMind with an overall score of 8/10:
Overall, I'd say that Heroes of Might and Magic V is a credit to the series, a huge improvement on the previous title and a game you should definitely try if you like strategy games. In fact, it's probably worth a try even if you DON'T like strategy games.
