Might and Magic Legacy goes back to the days of RPG youth putting you into a first person perspective, grid and turn based combat with puzzles, riddles, exploration, sidequests, lore and combat all aplenty.

The game lasts in the ballpark of 40-50 hours and I enjoyed it the whole way through. You create your party from 4 races with 3 class options for each race, any combination is probably viable on the normal difficulty (Adventurer) however if you play on the warrior difficulty you will want to look into optimizing your party a bit. I completed the game on the warrior difficulty but started over about 10 hours in and remade the party.

Combat can be difficult the whole way through the game depending on how much side quest stuff you do, I did virtually everything the game had to offer and the final fight was still a bit of a challenge. If fighting against the random number generator is not your thing this game may not be to your liking - I could have a party member go from full health and shielded to dead in 1 combat round from bad dice rolls.

There are some bugs still in the game as of the time of writing this (Graphical slowdown issues at points, Had the last boss bug out during the fight on me to name a few) but they are minor and didn't detract from my opinon of the game much.

All in all this is a fantastic RPG and anyone itching to explore a new world, loves turn based combat and wants to actually have to use your brain on occasion I highly recommend the game to.
