Heroes might and magic II is a fantastic game filled with creatures of different sorts ( from cyclops to elves, from dragons to phoenixes) and the object of the game is to build your army of creatures and defeat the opposing side. You can choose from 6 different leader types ( warlock, wizard, sorceress, necromancer, knight and barbarian), each having different castles and creatures set to that leader. The sound is amazing, how they manage to use different feels for different terrains ( when you enter a snowy mountain terrain, you could almost feel the temperature drop). The graphics are fairly well done, as the creature drawings look amazing ( you should see the black dragon, its wicked!) The game play I found very enjoyable, although I think some people might have difficulties with the campaign game, as even on easy it is a challanging game. Since this is a ten year old game, the price is down, so if you see it for $15.00 or so, I recommend that you buy it.
