About This Game Royal Bounty HD was crafted for the lovers of old adventure RPGs like King’s Bounty (1990). You are an adventurer named Jim, just out of the island prison. How you ended up like this is unknown. You have no gold and no army. Angry Cell Guard is chasing your heels. What a difficult situation! Your first quest is get away from the maze and find a ship. But it is just a beginning of the story. Your road lies across four huge continents, inhabited by a variety of monsters. You are going to visit a desert, frozen lands, go through woods and towns, and in the finale meet your old friend, The Master. En route you’ll have to earn money and gather an army to face him fully equipped. Nevertheless, you will still need a helping hand from Dragons. top-class pixel arttrue hardcore gameplay like back in the 90’s180 creature types in your armylong plot featuring several endingstons of questswell polished user interfaceWindows, Mac OSX, Android, and iOS versions are available at the moment.iOS: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/royal-bounty-hd/id930361943?mt=8Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.palmheroes.royalbounty_hd&hl=enPlease check out this excellent, extensive Let's Play review of the game! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqroxiodYog 1075eedd30 Title: Royal Bounty HDGenre: Adventure, Indie, RPG, StrategyDeveloper:iosoftwarePublisher:Hack The PublisherRelease Date: 10 Aug, 2015 Royal Bounty HD Download Setup This game is essentially a reverse engineered Heroes 2 with something taken from Heroes 3 too (namely spell elements), in a King's Bounty style adventure.It is a blatant rip-off. Everything from artifacts and treasure chests to hero skills and spells are copy-pasted or as I said, reverse engineered from Heroes 2 and 3.It starts off nice though, and it has a heroes-like atmosphere that I liked. Later the game goes to total troll mode; You basically cannot fight without ghosts, as the monsters on the adventure map will be around 10000 tier 7 units, like Titans or Dragons and such.I did finish the game, as it is not very long.I absolutely loved the adventure map graphics, they are well drawn. Too bad rest of the game is basically stolen.I want a new heroes game as much as the next guy, but seriously.. I don't know why or how they can sell this on steam, I think there should be lawsuits and such due to the fact it is so carbon copied from the early heroes games.. No skirmish mode, no random maps, nothing more than a "memorize the correct steps" bare-bones campaign mode. It's not even worth it on sale, as I found out to my chagrin.. If you played the originaly King's Bounty long ago like I did then this game should have a thumbs up and it is for you. I enjoyed it more for the memories than anything else:)For everyone else it is a thumbs down. It is too rough around the edges and has some bugs\/issues and is too primitive to recommend to someone who never played the original game.. Very good game, I've had a blast so far! :D Good amount of quests and stuff to doPros- Good levling system- Solid Combat- Alot of Quests- A fair amount of different units to choose fromCons- Some enemy doesnt scale up after a while of gameplay- Some enemys scale so hard that I find them unbeatable even with Slow and blind spells taking them down 1 pack at a time- No way to get a proper amount of gold per turn to keep your army combat ready8\/10 it need some balancing patches. I run a Heroes of Might & Magic fan game site that has a long ever growing list of games similar to HoMM. Palm Kingdoms and Royal Bounty HD had sat in my list for a long time but I just hadn't got around to playing them. However when I recently found out that iosoftware had released Palm Kingdoms 1 & 2 for free I couldn't resist trying them out. I was so blown away and had so much fun with them that I went and bought their Royal Bounty HD here (not knowing whether it was good or bad) out of gratitude for the joy their Palm Kingdoms games had given me. Thankfully I was not disappointed!Like the Palm Kingdoms games Royal Bounty HD has a very HoMM2 look and feel to it. The races are setup very similarly (eg 6 primary races = Knight, Warlock, Sorceress, Wizard, Necromancer, Barbarian and a 7th bonus Viking race unique to the PK\/RBHD universe). While you could control these races in Palm Kingdoms the whole castle management system is dropped in Royal Bounty HD for a more classic King's Bounty style RPG adventure. So people looking for a more HoMM strategic castle conquering game should try Palm Kingdoms 2 instead and also keep an eye out for the up and coming Palm Kingdoms 3. Those who are looking for a short fun retro adventure set in a very HoMM\/King's Bounty style game world then Royal Bounty HD is definitely worth a try. Despite being an OCD player who has to find & do EVERYTHING I was able to polish the game off in about 2 days (roughly 14hrs of gameplay).Royal Bounty HD also has significantly upgraded graphics from its Palm Kingdoms predecessors, everything appears about 4 times bigger and detailed, from the looks of things these new graphics will be used for the up and coming Palm Kingdoms 3 which I'm very excited about! RBHD also adds HoMM5 style alternate upgrades to nearly all units in the game (eg a Paladin can become a Templar style Crusader or a golden Holy Warrior ) adding a very fun extra layer of depth and unit management (you need to complete chapter 1 to gain access to the upgrades). Once again it looks like these upgrades will be in PK3 as well so I'm very excited about playing a strategic castle conquest game with HoMM2 style units that have HoMM5 style alternate upgrades.By Chapter 3 things may start to feel a bit repetitive and grinding however iosoftware came up with some interesting ways to keep things interesting as Chapter 4 is filled with hire-able Ghosts and all the best units in the game trying to stop you (Phoenixes, Black dragons, Thors (Titans), Cyclops's etc) while in chapter 5 your hero is separated from his army has to explore a huge Arabian style city on his own trying to get help from the locals in the build up to the big final boss fight. So if you feel yourself getting annoyed and bored by chapter 3, fear not, I was able to wrap up 4 & 5 in a couple of hours as it's a pretty short game. If you get stuck or wanna speed things up just use iosoftware's official walkthrough here on steam.I'm a bit disappointed when reading some of the negative feedback here as I think some people are forgetting that they only paid a few dollars (basically 1 measly drink in a bar) for a game that took years upon years to create that has the races, units, artefacts and adventure map buildings of an entire HoMM game. Paying a measly couple of bucks for an obvious indie\/retro\/short game and then trashing it for not being a big AAA game is kinda idiotic. A few people are also complaining that the game is too hard and the lack of manual & tutorial options makes is unfriendly to people who've never played KB\/HoMM. I can understand that and at the very least there probably should have been a nice shortcuts\/help screen (accessible via the main menu) implemented that tells players all the keys (eg Ctrl + & - to zoom) and some of the core basics (eg what all the days, hero stats, map objects & movement mechanics are etc). Palm Kingdoms had a tutorial but I'm guessing that was dropped from Royal Bounty HD to not spoil the game start story elements. Personally I simply recommend that you watch a youtube video as that can show you in about 5 minutes how to play the game. I've made a few below that show just how easy it is to complete the first chapter even without visiting lots of the cool stuff in the forests away from the roads. After watching it you'll probably find the game too easy and will need to up the difficulty level haha. :PMy only real complaint is that steam achievements aren't working at the moment however fortunately I don't really care about that stuff much lol! Some people do so I thought I'd better mention it. I'll remove this complaint when fixed. :)Royal Bounty HD - Part 1 Video: Introduction, Prison Break, & Chapter 1 Forestria Beginning.https:\/\/youtu.be\/5tiAdG6J5soRoyal Bounty HD - Part 2 Video: Chapter 1 Forestria Continued.https:\/\/youtu.be\/5asf7Fol7WsRoyal Bounty HD - Part 3 Video: Chapter 1 Forestria Final Stages, Cool Unit Upgrades, Chapter 2 The Lost Scroll Teaser, & Peasant Upgrade MEGA Money Making Trick.https:\/\/youtu.be\/5tI0M_bl_z0. This could have been what HoMM2 was back in the days, sadly its not and instead give you extreme difficulty and no multiplayer\/skirmish.6+\/10. Heroes of Might & Magic (HoMM) is my favorite game series of all time. Playing Royal Bounty HD (RB) brought back fond memories of HoMM 1. The art design, the map, the hero, even the ambient sounds made me think of playing HoMM back in 1994. This is not to say, though, that RB is a HoMM clone. It most definitely is not. It has its own game style with its own unique set of rules. A key difference is that there is no castle with buildings to construct and the associated troops to hire. RB is first and foremost an exploration game. You travel over a single, huge map uncovering troops to assist you in your endeavors and enemies with which to battle. Teleporters are scattered over the landscape that catapult you and your army to far-flung regions of the map, somewhat in a puzzle fashion. I purchased this game last September and played it exclusively until it was done. I played approximately 30 hours, with a portion of that time associated with restarts as I got used to the game\u2019s idiosyncrasies. Some things I wish were better explained:\u2022\tTo zoom the map in\/out, hold CTRL and rotate the middle mouse wheel.\u2022\tTo center the camera on the hero, click the horse icon on the bottom right side of the screen. \u2022\tSome quests can be accomplished without fighting.\u2022\tTroops can be \u201cstored\u201d in towers.\u2022\tThe hero only has eight (8) skill slots. Valuable skills include Estates, Archery, and Earth Magic.\u2022\tGhosts are powerful. Each kill increases their number. Protect them and watch as they grow into a powerful army.All in all, I thoroughly enjoyed Royal Bounty. If you are an older gamer and remember New World Computing\u2019s masterpiece, Heroes of Might and Magic, or for that matter any gamer that enjoys fantasy turn-based strategy, I would suggest that you give Royal Bounty HD a shot. For me it was a couple of dollars well spent.. So, Let\u2019s cut to the chase. Heroes of Might and Magic II Clone.ORKings Bounty Clone.Who Cares? Good Games should be replicated.Now that\u2019s out of the way...A Review is in Order.I've actually managed to beat the game. ^ That doesn't sound like much, but holy hell is it hard. (But they added things for players to use to essentially cheat)PPS - Thanks for Adding those. Made re-runs easier.____________________________________________________________________The Bad:*** The game is buggy as all crap, crashes all the time, numerous problems.That being said the Dev\/s are actually working to fix it... (Most have been fixed) *** NPC Monsters around the world get too strong too quickly, so if you explore your going to have a bad time later.***Replay-ability drowns itself.See, the problem is that the map never changes... ...this makes your next run faster and more efficient picking and choosing what you want.However this also means nothing really changes. Once you've worked out a killer strategy, you'll never deviate from it.But I must say to lighten this negative point; I did restart the game 5 times to keep playing through - Learning from each time I restarted.So it does have some replay-Ability, just not a lot of it.***No Tutorials (Explore the UI yourself to work everything out)Took me two runs through this game before I realized that I could cast spells. (Perhaps its just me?)AKASteep learning curve.***Lack of Innovation, it\u2019s all been done before. But it\u2019s taken the good that It could and it\u2019s trying to remake itself with all the good stuff.***Hero movement can be a bit wonky, if you accidently click and try click elsewhere to go in a different direction it feels like a 80-20% swing that it will actually stop moving so you can change the pathing.***Lack of Options... you literally can't put this game into windowed mode with any ease.Its a very basic options screen.***Can't name saved games, hard to work out which save you want to load up some times.***Backtracking \/ Exploring is punished, creatures across the ENTIRE MAP get stronger the longer the game progresses...So while it won\u2019t affect you immediately it kicks the gears up later in the game. By quite a lot... (Yes I said this already - It\u2019s the biggest problem with the game, so it gets two entries!)((Also Ghosts Overpowered)).____________________________________________________________________The Good:***The game Auto-Saves CONSTANTLY which is brilliant. Before Combat - Start of Turn Etc.Auto-Save is brilliantly set up.***Crapload of Main Story quests AND Side Quests.***Combat is solid, very few bugs inside combat.***Variety of monsters you can have is insane. It has easily 100+ different monsters in the world. All of which you can recruit in some way or form. Orcs, Humans, Elves, Undead, Misc, Etc.*** Very challenging, this game will be no cake walk even on the easy difficulty.***Large freaken map... Like seriously its huge.***Dev's are actually willing to help you if you try talk to them... (Go Figure?!).They're constantly spoiling walkthroughs \/ secret locations.***The Art style is nostalgic, it\u2019s not fancy smancy graphics its old school art (Retro) and it simply works. This game looks amazing in its own style. (Even though it\u2019s supposed to be ((Royal Bounty HD)) -? <--- Lol What... What HD??!)Perhaps revamped would be a more appropriate word.***Fun and Interesting Story.***Multiple Endings.____________________________________________________________________Extra Cliff Notes:It's a $5 Game, for this price tag it\u2019s more than worth its value.Anyone who tells you to refund this game... is simply is a cheapskate. For $5 you are almost assured to get your time and fun out of this game. (Assuming you actually ENJOY Turn Based Games)Do NOT go into this game expecting ANOTHER GAME.This game IS NOT titled:- Might and Magic 2 HDOr - Kings Bounty HDThe main argument people are lodging at this game is that its not these games...This is an absolutely stupid argument.(Nearly 80% of the Negative reviews are using this argument as the core argument they are putting forth)(^ Of the day I made this review)____________________________________________________________________My PERSONAL Views.I actually quite enjoyed my time with this game. Its $5 and I managed over 10 hours in it, so its doing something right. I rarely get 10 hours from $20 games.I ran around and tried to full clear everything. But I\u2019m well aware of a ton of things I've missed, just don't know how to get to them -.-Also Necromancers Ring <-- How do I get Necromancy? WTF?!However as many people have noted, The NPC armies around the world need to increase at a far lower rate. They get stupidly powerful - stupidly quickly. The player is supposed to be the unstoppable force, not the NPC's around the world. I went into this game not knowing what Royal Bounty was and I had no prior bias in any direction. It was $5 and I picked it up, cause why not? - $5. All this said, I still would rate this game at a 7 \/ 10.Fun with lots of potential. As more things get balanced and fixed I can see this game becoming truly amazing.- Wolvie Remember Kiddies Dare2Game.. I always wondered why there are so little heroes 3 like games, especially on steam, and here we finally have one like this:+Looks pretty nice outside of the battle and battle looks like simplified heroes 3 one, but it's not bad looks okay. (also - the field seems to be wider, so archer units pretty powerful)+Soundwork: Amazing soundwork, I guess it's the biggest plus of the game, great OST choice <3, absolutely love it.+Gameplay: Everything is very close to heroes 3 so I list notable changes -auto day skip - why not, it's a single player after all -3 difficulties - 1st offers easy gameplay + infinity hirelings stacking while they wait for you to hire them, the medium is normal, and hard is pretty hard but you have to complete normal 1st. -buggy hud -splitting and grouping units, moving across the map involves some bugs, developer aware of and he said he is fixing them so... yeh. -More adventurish game style - you wander across the map way more time and build stuff way less. -Prove me wrong but it looks like units from different fractures do not affect each other moral.So in short - this game is pretty enjoyable variation of HOMM+Low price+steam cards+steam achievementsOverall it's sure value for money game, actually, it doesn't even deserve price this low. If you like heroes series - give it a try.. Great game for fans of old school Heroes of Might & Magic or King's Bounty games. Has the same simplistic gameplay and charming graphics and music. The only disadvantages I can tell so far is the lack of any skirmish or MP modes and no minimap. Other than that I'm loving it!
