  1. The game sounds better than it looks.
  2. If this product has a failing point, it has to be the graphical elements. But then again, this program is built so that just about anyone with a Pentium computer can play it.
  3. What we have here is an extension of the original with a much better and generally more compelling storyline. This does not detract from the amount of fun you can potentially have with this title.
  4. The story has strength and depth, but the game structure is rather clumsy for storytelling purposes.
  5. The missions themselves are fairly long, and you might grow weary of having to use the same set of units toward the end of the game.
  6. 60
    It's just a little too light on the amount of gameplay included to recommend to veteran HOMM fans.
  7. There are no unique units, no improved visuals and all of the sound effects remain the same. Warlords of the Wasteland also lacks a map editor and multiplayer options. The replay value plummets for fans of Heroes of Might and Magic and even newcomers to the series.
