    First things first: I love the King's Bounty series. I own all the games on that other, DRM-free site, and two games over here. I have hundreds of hours put into them, collectively. When I read a positive, recent review of this game, I thought I'd give it a try. I lasted only 12 minutes. During that time, I was nagged to log in and share things over Facebook NINE TIMES. In TWELVE MINUTES.First things first: I love the King's Bounty series. I own all the games on that other, DRM-free site, and two games over here. I have hundreds of hours put into them, collectively.

In TWELVE MINUTES. Kill something? Share it on FB! Find a component? Share it on FB! Your wizard cast a spell? Why not share it on FB? Your warrior had an itch on his groin during combat and used the elven healer's pointy left ear to scratch it? Hey, I have an idea - you could share it on FB!

    At one point, I was actually informed of a feature that could ONLY be unlocked if I logged into FB. That was enough for me.

    Seriously. Ten times. In twelve minutes. It's like the first time I discovered my father's box of Playboy magazines, only not nearly as pleasant. Not recommended.

    This game has been stripped of all depth and any elements that made it's predecessors fun. The Steam version is very error prone, poorly supported, and still forces users through Facebook for the multi-player features. The free-to-play nature of the game is relentlessly, aggressively in your face begging for money. No reason to ever touch this if you already own any of the other modernThis game has been stripped of all depth and any elements that made it's predecessors fun.
