IGN writes: "What were the great Nintendo DS games of 2009? Sure, there was The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, Bowser's Inside Story, and Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars. But right up there with those heavy hitters was a little puzzle/strategy game called Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes. Its addictive battle mechanics and slick art style earned it an average review score of 8.6. If you're not much of a portable gamer, though, you'll get your chance to check out what makes Clash of Heroes so awesome when it is released on the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade later this year."
John Bedford (Modojo.com): The Xbox Live Arcade service has produced some of the brightest gems of this console generation. While we love playing them in the comfort of our living-rooms, we can't help but wish we could take a few of them on the road with us. We've picked out some of our favorite titles, and looked at how they might find a new home on the mobile platform.
Clash of Heroes tells the story of five heroes from five different areas of the same world, all coming together to fight the same overreaching demonic malevolent force. In short: the game is a combination of strategic roleplaying, fantasy storyline and puzzle-based battles. Available for PS3 & PC, Clash of Heroes is a HD remake of Nintendo’s Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes (2009), a game that is praised to be one of the best games ever released for the Nintendo DS.
This review is 7 months old and the game was last released in 2010 on PS3. It's also available on XBLA.
That said, this is a fantastic game, highly recommended.
Overall Clash of Heroes is quite a unique experience and is highly recommended. For a downloadable title there is an incredible amount of content on offer. The single player campaign alone will bring you well over 20 hours worth of gameplay. If you take your time to do all the extra side quests this will be longer and the multiplayer also adds a lot of replay value. If you're a fan of turn-based combat, puzzle games or RPG's then there's a lot to like here and you should definitely consider picking this up.
