Absolute masterpiece.

Also, for any HOMM3 fans who were unaware, GOG also lets you download Horn of the Abyss, a fantastic fan-made expansion that adds a lot of content, working multiplayer lobbies, and a lot of QoL enhancements (simultaneous turns until a player attacks another player, quick combat to bypass trivial fights, enhanced menus, etc).

Wow, the simultaneous turns is a game changer. I tried playing this at a LAN party a few years back and the slog of waiting for each player in a 6 player game did not bring back the nostalgia I had when it released some 20 odd years ago. If we had this mod it would have made it much more enjoyable!

I also highly recommend the HD mod too

100%! I should have mentioned, but Horn of the Abyss comes with the HD mod as well.

It does? Huh…. I guess I’ve had it installed so long that I forgot what the steps were.
