So, with that in mind I was nervous about this one.

I’ve completed the game countless times, putting in hundreds of hours, and it is a better-than-perfect port. I still to this day have an old Vodafone 1615 that has the sole purpose of being my King’s Bounty handheld console.

The one was a freeware port for Windows Mobile 6 by some random Russian kid. While the Amiga version (the version I played back in the day) was great, it wasn’t the one. That might sound like a hipster pick but it gets worse. King’s Bounty is my favourite game of all time. But before we move on, there’s something of an elephant in this particular room. Sometimes that works but sometimes you get Tony Hawk Pro Skater 5. Of course, when a developer and publisher decide to bring in the number for the sequel, that suggests that this is the true follow up.

As is common with long-running video game franchises, despite this sequel being named number 2, there were a bunch of sequels in between, all spawning from 2008’s King’s Bounty: The Legend. Of course, this is a sequel to the original King’s Bounty, a 1990 tactical RPG that originated on the PC but did good business on the Amiga and Sega Megadrive. King’s Bounty 2 is a cross-over RPG/tactics game from Russian coders 1C Entertainment who have quite the softography of lesser-known titles behind them.
