Good improvement, needs some fixing still
Huge fan of H&C 1, so I thought Id pick this game up as well. Compared to H&C1, this games progression is significantly longer and harder, with the whole "conquering sites" a nice touch to the overall gameplay. You can also summon your other heroes as combat units, which is a nice touch
There are some, in IMO, unnecessary nuances, like literally finding an unlit treasure box in a shrubbery filled landscape at night - other than using a minute of my life searching, I see no purpose in this game design. Theres a lot more units, with some being a little redundant for variety, which is fine.
There is a problem with local multiplayer - cant find/connect on Bluetooth nor local wifi. Ad-hoc network doesnt work as well. Even hosting an online game and having the other iPad connect doesnt work (cannot find game).
Using two iPad Air 2s, there seems to be a RAM issue even at 2GB. If your maxed army is at a stand still with a sizable enemy army, casting AOE spells or heals is enough to crash the game. Not even end game or survival settings, were talking wave 9 out of a presumable 30 waves.
Otherwise, good game, semi worth the money if local multiplayer was supported (I dont even know if you can do more than 2 players!)
