If you want to play the classic Heroes of Might and Magic III, the open source engine VCMI is easily the best way on modern platforms and version 1.4.3 is out now with plenty of bug fixes.

While we have fheroes2 for Heroes of Might and Magic II, we also have VCMI for Heroes of Might and Magic III which also continues to advance as a free and open source cross-platform game engine reimplementation.

Here's another fun open source reimplementation for you: VCMI is for running Heroes of Might and Magic III on modern systems with plenty of enhancements and a new release just went out.
