Hero of the Kingdom III

Hero of the Kingdom III started off pretty good; they added some new things, like your skills leveling up to a 100 and a crafting screen for food, potions, and weapons. But about half way through, the game just grinds to a halt. Every enemy takes requires 5 or more potions to fight, so you're constantly harvesting ingredients and making potions. Your weapons break all the time and you have to craft more, it becomes a real chore. More isn't always better, and that's true in this case; it still has the same overall feel as the first two games, but they took it in the wrong direction.

Holy crap... this is by far the worst of the three. Especially given that I gave the first two games a positive review... I cannot in good conscience do that with the third. This game doesn't have any accessibility options, so if you have poor vision, you should give it a miss as the game doesn't give you anything for that. I have good vision and I found it hard to see a lot of things. Money becomes a major issue in this game, and while there is a way to repeatedly cycle items through vendors to get more, this is extremely boring and repetitive. Buy grain, turn grain to flour, sell flour... Repeat, a LOT. I repeated this over and over till I got an achievement for having over 5000 gold, then did it till I had double that. It wasn't enough. I have run out of gold again. The issue lies with the enemies needing potions to kill, stamina to kill, weapons that keep breaking... Developer, why did you add weapon durability to this? It does not make the game more fun, it makes it miserable. The first two games had that too, but it wasn't as big an issue, because there weren't even half as many enemies and there wasn't a levelling grind you had to do alongside. Yes, you have to level ski…

Just like the first two except this one is longer as well as a tougher experience. The story is great though!

Way more grindy , than previous parts. I liked it anyway , 6/10. 100% finished in roughly 7 hours.

Huge downgrade from the first 2 games. They added a skill and crafting system and a respawn system for all objects in the game and made the game into an absolute grindfest. This game doesn't respect the players time and it tarnishes the first two games with this behaviour. My rating 4/10, not recommended.

Unless you just really want to complete this entire series of games, I would just skip this one. The charm of the previous games was a simple story-driven point and click RPG that was just good enough to waste some time on to complete. They did improve some systems in this one ,but the story is just the lowest effort trash I think I have ever played. I mean it is really bad. On top of that they have this RNG durability mechanic that leads to some really over the top breaking of equipment, that will leave you wondering if they forgot this is a casual game. Anyways I had to make myself finish this one.
