Goal 2/2026 achieved. February 20, 22:00 – I have decided to follow with one more easygoing game, so I have picked up and finished shortly after Hero of the Kingdom III from GOG. After enjoying the first two games, this one felt a little bit more overwhelming. The main reason was very grindy nature of some quests in the second part of the game, which slowed down the tempo of the game, and made me to do a lot of busywork, before I was able to proceed to the last town, where the game became more easygoing again, but still more grindy, than first two acts. This also artificially prolonged the length of the game, with all achievements unlocked, to almost 11 hours, which is pretty OK, but because of that, the story felt shortest of the three games. There were also a few improvements, like the possibility to shop on the world map, which made the grind at least a little bit more bearable.
