What players love

Players who grew up on Heroes of Might and Magic say this is that formula moved to a science fiction setting: rival civilizations fighting over a cut-off star system, with a campaign whose story and writing they praise alongside the art and the music. Reviewers point to the modern touches on the classic recipe, four campaigns and skirmish maps that keep them busy, and co-op that works with a friend.
