Sir Gilbert, the defender of Endoria, is nowhere to be found and the realm is in need of a new hero. Or a heroine. Princess Amelie steps in and takes on the mantle of the prime knight. So begins her amazing, and sometimes dangerous, journey through the many mysterious corners of the land she calls home. Theres much at stake, as the dark forces that threatened the people of Endoria in the past are gathering once more. Actually, even conquering them won't be the end of the Armored Princess' struggle. There's always another quest ahead, when you're the hero.

Kings Bounty: Crossworlds GOTY consists of the basic Armored Princess campaign, the Crossworlds expansion and plenty other add-ons, like the Orcs on the March, and Champion of the Arena, so you can expect to spend many hours in the gorgeous, magical realm of Endoria. A real treat for any fan of Heroes of Might and Magic type of games, mixing strategy and RPG elements. Make sure not to miss it!

Adzeth: Is that the armored princess in the pictures? Because she doesn't look all that armored.
"Armored Princess" is to a princess and her armor what "Peeled Potato" is to a potato and its peel.

40% off means 40% fewer letters, than necessary.

I bought this already like 1 year ago from UK for 5-7€. I don't want to compare retail vs digital prices, but this is just too expensive even in digital for more than 3 years old game.

This is basically one game with one mini expansion. No way it's worth 25$. HOMAM V costs 19,99 and you'll get game + 3 big expansions, 3 soundtrack, artbook, etc.

It's pretty common though for older games 'newly' released on new platforms. Prices tend to be inflated for a while compared to other retailers before the real sales hit it.

Very nice release. I was waiting for that. $25 seem a bit much, but for $15 I think I give it a shot. I have never played these, but I really liked KB: The Legend. So, thanks for adding these, GOG.

I hoped that this game would come here, because I liked King's Bounty: The Legend very much. But to be honest, I think $25 is pretty expensive for this game. Might pick it up for the discounted price though.

Great game, I already have all the series in Steam, but recommend all games

SimonG: Whoever wrote the articel about the product should go over it again.

King's Bounty: Crossworlds GOTY includes King's Bounty: Armored Princess and the expansion.King's Bounty: Crossworlds.

[i]
King's Bounty: Armored Princess features its own expansion - Orcs on the March, featuring new units, spells, and quests.[/i]

So, how many expansions does AP have?

How about a simple:

Included in this awesome package are: A, B, C.
Too easy :P We keep it old school and have you guessing while looking up the manual on page 37, paragraph 4 :D.

edit: to tell you the truth, I usually do exactly just that. However, in this game's case with the mini-expansions (Orcs on the March and Defender of the Crown) it wasn't so simple due to the fact that Crosworlds itself is an expansion to AP but it's the game featured on the box and title.

The description for this game seems to be a mess, and to be a bit conflicted.

What it includes is King's Bounty: Armored Princess and King's Bounty: Crossworlds. Armored Princess is a game in its own right (the standalone sequel/expansion/spin-off to The Legend), whereas Crossworlds is - as is correctly stated - an expansion for Armored Princess.

What Crossworlds includes is two mini-campaigns, Champion of the Arena and Defender of the Crown, as well as Orcs on the March, which is an enhanced version of the Armored Princess campaign, with new units such as a few types of orcs. Orcs on the March is NOT an expansion to Armored Princess. It's no more an expansion to it than The Witcher 2.0 was an expansion to The Witcher 2. It's effectively a replacement version of the game, not an expansion.

It'd be better if the bullet points on the store page were a bit clearer about this. Crossworlds is three parts (Orcs, Champion, Defender), with Orcs being an enhanced version of the Armored Princess campaign. Orcs itself is NOT an expansion. It is PART of the expansion.

Already own all of the King's Bounty games elsewhere and I still have not got around to playing them. Also for some reason my mind want to always read Crossworlds as crosswords and it drives me nuts.

Nice release, but tad expensive at $25.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!! Thank GOG Team for finally bringing this games to the people!! Armored Princess is great I finished it more than 3 times -each time you start the game the loot, the monsters and the recruitable army in most locations gets randomized plus playing as a mage or paladin or knight makes the experience so different. I'm playing through Warriors of the North and I hope this game will be here soon as well.

Think of it as a tactical advantage, her enemy is so distracted she can get the better of them in combat. Thus less armour isn't a disadvantage.
