GamesRadar+ feature: Olden Era's hotseat mode revives the Heroes 3 multiplayer nostalgia

In a GamesRadar+ feature, the author revisits Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era's hotseat mode by playing it with their brother, echoing the local multiplayer sessions the two shared with Heroes 3 back in 2003. The piece highlights additions new to the series, including Law Points, an Astrology system for acquiring and upgrading spells, a battle Focus meter, and a reworked leveling system that lets players pick traits with synergy bonuses. The only drawback noted is that hotseat currently has no team-up option, which the author expects Unfrozen to add as the Early Access build evolves.
