King’s Bounty 2 Review

Leading My Army Down The Drain

HIGH The end of the ‘assemble a skeleton’ quest.

LOW Realizing that I’d played so badly that the game had become unbeatable.

WTF The research-focused magician who’s just a step away from realizing she’s in a videogame.


King’s Bounty 2 Preview

King’s Bounty is one of the oldest names in computer strategy gaming, with the first edition released 31 years ago. Its mixture of RPG-style open-world adventuring and grid-based combat found great acclaim, although not as much as it would after being adapted into Heroes of Might and Magic. That series pivoted towards the grand strategy genre, with the player focusing on controlling resources and building epically-huge armies.
