What it is
Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes is a fantasy puzzle and role-playing game set 40 years before the Heroes V saga. Five heroes travel through different regions of Ashan, growing stronger as they investigate a demonic plot and seek to stop Chaos. Its combat asks you to arrange units into offensive or defensive formations, build combos, and use spells and artifacts. Alongside standard battles, the game includes boss fights and puzzle encounters with limited turns. You earn or hire units with different abilities, then gain experience to level up heroes and units after battles. The Steam listing includes single-player, multiplayer, co-op, partial controller support, Steam Cloud, leaderboards, anti-cheat, and Family Sharing. The Steam version is listed for Windows, while the broader platform list also names Nintendo DS.
