Ever since I got a PC in 1990 I loved strategy games.
Heroes of Might & Magic was amongst the few series that I have played most parts. Mostly because they're loyal to their fan base and stick to their main game play components:

1. Turn based combat of fantasy creatures
2. Turn based world map to explore and capture
3. RPG-like development of your hero

Heroes III is the oldest available remake of the series. I had to play it and wasn't disappointed. It's still as enthralling as it used to be 20 years ago. The balancing of various factions is great, with none being too weak or too overpowered.

Of course the cinematics are of a different era, but I didn't pay much attention to them anyways. The story is still told quite well just playing the scenarios.
