So the best question one might have is whether this game is worth their time. If you're into strategy games, King's Bounty is right up your alley. It does lose points in its inability to provide a multiplayer experience (though there really is no possible way to pull it off with this style of game) as most strategy games contain this experience but still, the game has an expansive amount of gameplay to behold, nonetheless. If you're into lengthy games that provide tons of customization and character building, and you enjoy repeating your experience to test new skills, heroes, and strategies, this game has all of the above options.
With an MSRP of $39.99 this is very fairly priced for a PC game. I would say that because of the game's expansiveness and replayability, it is most certainly a game worth your time (though Heroes still gets a few extra points for its top notch multiplayer experience). Also, I enjoyed the game thoroughly because of its strong execution of the strategy and RPG elements necessary to hook a gamer to its format. The lack of story did keep me from playing for extended periods at a time but its varied environments and quests are what kept me playing through the game.
