Grepolis vs Might & Magic: Heroes VII
Grepolis
Grepolis is an Ancient Greek-themed MMO strategy game by Plarium where you will be establishing your own empire. Build your beautiful Greek city and develop it to bolster your wealth so you can mobilize a mighty army to help you defend your treasury and also to attack your enemies. You can even recruit legendary Greek heroes like Heracles to helm your battalions or to govern your cities. Interestingly, you will even need to choose to worship certain Greek gods or goddesses (you can't worship them all) to earn their favor and gain access to wield their divine powers. After all, every little advantage you can get can go a long way in this game. So, rise up now and show the world your brilliant leadership in Grepolis!Might & Magic: Heroes VII
Might & Magic: Heroes VII is the latest (and perhaps most disappointing) installment of the classic turn-based RPG series, Might & Magic. It's not that the gameplay is horridly bad - it's actually somewhat the opposite. Many fans have liked the variety this installment has brought, especially the six different faction campaigns that you can enjoy, each with their own stories and landscapes of course. This game also has a nice, low-key empire building aspect where you'll manage your city, gather resources and recruit extra armies to help you take down your enemies. The synergy between the heroes and their armies is well-designed too, and not to mention, the game has a nice skirmish mode where you can simply test your skills against an AI whereby both of you are given maximum power.However, all those aside, Might & Magic: Heroes VII is possibly one of the buggiest games ever made for the franchise. The game crashes pretty often and the bugs, although rarely game-breaking, are incredibly annoying. The multiplayer mode is also practically non-existant mainly because it doesn't even work. Worst yet, the developers apparently have given up trying to fix the game and left the game almost as broken as the day it was released.
So, considering all of that, we really couldn't recommend getting Might & Magic: Heroes VII unless you can get it at a "way below market price" range or you'll just end up regretting all the wasted money.
