Question How young are you?

I believe most of us here in this reddit are middle-aged and above, and we play this game out of nostalgia.

Wondering if there are any young people who picked this up. And if yes, why? Especially that there are so many newer and more exciting games out there.

Would love to hear from you!

I'm young enough to remember playing this game as a kid; I'm old enough to be used to the question being 'how old are you?'

The appeal is simple - heroes 3 is timeless. The graphics did not age at all, especially with the HD mod and thanks to the artstyle chosen by Phelan Sykes and David Mullich. The strategy is complex and the game relies on slight imbalances across various elements of gameplay.
