![]() This has to do with the most powerful creature in King's Bounty.ĭragons you think? Not by a long shot. There is a kind (well not actually) of bug in King's Bounty that (probably) was fixed and realized in later versions of Heroes of Might and Magic. It was the stuff of imagination and pure creativity. Early on, we used graph paper and lead figurines to represent the hordes. We worked for several months on the game design, re-working interface and strategic flow issues through lunchtimes. John decided it would be a great basis for a new computer game. An old AD&D derivative originally from the dark mists of the seventies, but an outstanding strategy game nonetheless. The team would work for several days straight on the next major software release, and in a downtime, we'd play. It was part of the development process and helped us with the design of new games. Jon (Van Caneghem), Mark (Caldwell), and the rest of New World Computing would spend their spare time playing board games. It's never mentioned as a derivative of the computer game, and the villains' names are all different, but the basic premise, and, strangely, the cover of the game is practically the same, as seen here. It's played by 1 to 8 players and revolves around catching villains in a fantasy land. ![]() There exists a board game of the same name - King's Bounty.
