Alternatives : Mike's Favorites

ALTERNATIVES

for the Might and Magic series

Alas, IMHO there are no real alternatives for this series and neither for Heroes.
-- especially M&M 6-7-8 but also HoMM 1-2-3 --
...which is a pity, because me thinks there's a market for them.

however, there are some projects out there

Might and Magic Tribute - The Book of Ceth
»»» www.castlegobs.nl «««

Game style as Might & Magic 6-8, with downloadable demos, under active development

Swords and Sorcery - peregrine's song
»»» www.2-0.biz «««

Looks like Might & Magic 1/2, with elements of Bard's Tale and Wizardy, shareware

Might & Magic Remake
»»» www.mightnmagic.glt.pl «««

Might and Magic Warlords
»»» www.freewebs.com/hypergames2k8 «««

Might and Magic clone
»»» inactive and/or gone «««

Please keep the words of Geoff Howlands' essay How do I make Games? [gamedev.net] in mind:
"Starcraft, Everquest and Quake were all made by teams of professionals who had budgets usually million dollar plus"
