Heroes of Might & Magic 5
Heroes of Might & Magic 5 saw a new developer take over, and as such a world reset. Here you have the gameplay you love, with the tactics and development you want with a host of new characters, stories and the world of Ashan. There are 6 campaigns for you to play each with their own special characters and story that introduces them and are a lot of fun to play. Discover the darkness of Inferno, the Elves of Sylvan and the sheer power of the Academy.This fully 3D game brings a host of the classic gameplay among new features and controls that both simplify the game and make it much more streamlined. Though you still have the map hunting, town burning grid based gameplay you love. Altogether a fun game, despite the new setting and a lot of the old traditions came through in a really great way.
Kingdom Hearts: Unchained X
Kingdom Hearts: Unchained X offers a nice yet rather unlikely mix between two of the most celebrated animated masterpieces, Disney and Final Fantasy, that's set in the “Era of Lost Masters” within the timeline of the Kingdom Hearts lore. If you find this hard to wrap your head around... well, just imagine a Kingdom Hearts world that had just been Disney-fied. Indeed, this 2D game contains numerous references to popular Disney animated shows, characters and even locations like Agrabah from Aladdin.Aside from the Disney influence, fighting the Heartless in this game is something that's pretty easy to pick up since you'll mostly be tapping and swiping to swing that big and iconic keyblade of yours. Interestingly though, the game allows you to use a variety of abilities, ranging from healing effects to experience boosts, depending on the medal you use.
That said, Kingdom Hearts: Unchained X does pale in comparison to any of the games in the Kingdom Hearts franchise and well, that's not exactly surprising considering that this game is free-to-play. However, if you love Disney and/or Kingdom Hearts, you'll definitely want to check this game out.
