After the opening hour or so in which you’re restricted to a relatively small tutorial area, you’re dropped in a map that is absolutely filled with icons to chase around. It offers a world filled with factions, moral choices, side quests and exotic locations to explore. It has the world size and scale of a Witcher 3, with a complex tactical battle system that aims to modernise the Heroes of Might & Magic formula. King’s Bounty II is a wildly ambitious title. King’s Bounty II is a near-perfect example of this. These games usually end up being too ambitious for their own good, with bugs, graphical glitches, and other such oddities, and that limits their audience, but the people that these things are pitched to generally love them. Developers that can’t match the scale of what EA or Ubisoft do, and yet don’t let that stop them from crafting wildly ambitious experiences. “Eurojank” games are, as the name suggests, titles that come out of Europe from the B-tier developers.
When you hear the term “Eurojank,” you might well assume that it’s being said as a pejorative, but no.
