Welcome to VCMI Project Wiki

VCMI is an open-source project aiming to reimplement HMM3:WoG game engine, giving it new and extended possibilities.

Latest release

As of January 2021, we dont make big official releases anymore, but instead we provide a new version every several days: everytime when there is a new feature finished or new bug fixed.
Although there are no official "big releases", we reccomend updating the game at least twice a year, to make sure you have an updated, best version.
We try not to break savegame files compatibility, so you shouldnt have problem returning to your old games after update.
Please see corresponding "installation on" articles for details for your platform.
