''Warriors of Might And Magic'' is a spin off of the much more famous ''VideoGame/HeroesOfMightAndMagic'' saga, and is an ActionGame.

The player controls Alleron, a fomer Captain of the Guards who's accused of necromancy, forced to wear a living mask of shame and thrown in the Pit of the Accused. From here, he'll have to work his way through an army of monsters, warriors and demons in order to clear his name, find out the truth about his origins and stop the resurrection of a dark demon called [[EldritchAbomination Daglathor]].

''Shifters''. Alleron is back, now imbued with VoluntaryShapeshifting powers into a ram, gryphon, and multiple different animal-human hybrid transformations, and he must defeat a new race of half-metal invaders in a {{Magitek}} setting.

* BeastMan: A few of the enemies encountered are this. The sequel has the "Beasts" as the antagonists of the first chapter (and appearing infrequently afterwords) -- these ones being minions of the BigBad who have been mutated into a variety of flesh-eating animal-men, and are the first subject of your new VoluntaryShapeshifting powers.



* ClingyMacGuffin: The Mask of Accused. You're stuck with it for most of the first game. Alleron still wears it in ''Shifters'', but is apparently able to remove it at will.
* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: When an enemy is selected, you'll see a coloured ring, based on the element (Red for Fire, Green for Earth, Dark Blue for Water, Light Blue for Air, Black for Darkness and White for Light).

* CurseOfThePharaoh: In ''Shifters'', Alleron's mission to deliver a message to the Sultan of Muq'abar is interrupted when he finds the desert city has fallen under a devastating plague, after treasure hunters disturbed the tomb of Sekotep. With the Sultan's palace locked down, Alleron is forced to travel into the desert and destroy the undead pharaoh to lift the curse.

* OddlyNamedSequel2ElectricBoogaloo: ''Warriors of Might & Magic'' has a sequel that goes by the OneWordTitle of ''Shifters'', seemingly ditching the ''Might & Magic'' association despite otherwise continuing Alleron's story.



* ReplayValue: In ''Shifters'', there are six races available to shapeshift into, each providing a succession of spells as they level up and a gameplay benefit that aids in optional exploration and puzzle solving (like Djinn having {{Intangibility}} to pass through bars and grates). However, you can only have four of them in a given run (with only the Beast form guaranteed), and the exact order you chose them in will leave segments of levels inaccessible. In addition, each form's progression eventually splits between a "mage" and "warlord" final form, with mutually-exclusive spells.



* VideogameCrueltyPotential: At one point, you can burn a prisoner (or a ghost?) alive in a furnace. However if you do so, [[OneHitKill his wraith will appear and kill you where you stand.]]

* UselessUsefulSpell: Averted by the Charm spell: It always works, even on strong foes, and is quite useful. The honor goes to Torch, whose only purpouse is to make dark areas (rare to come by) brighter.

Adding more tropes after playing the game a few times.


* AbsurdlySpaciousSewer: The Pit of the Accused, the first level, is one: The main passages are big enough for a Dragon and filled with expanded side passages leading everywhere, and that's without getting into the even more complex dungeon below, leading to a waterfall straigth into an orcish mine, currently under work.



* BadWithTheBone: Your very first weapon is the bone of some poor devil who was eaten by the monsters of the Pit.
* BeastMan: A few of the enemies encountered are this.

]] Alleron tend to swing them a lot.
* BlatantLies: [[AllThereInTheManual The manual]] mentions that Necromancers, despite the implications of their title, rarely rise the dead, and their ill reputation is usually the result of the rumors born from ignorant and fearful commoners. In game the only Necromancer, Daria, does nothing but summoning living dead to kill Alleron, who's only accused of being a Necromancer himself, making the previously mentioned comment sound useless and silly.
* BossInMookClothing: The Large Demons Hellions are extremely powerful and have a lot of health. Thankfully, they're quite slow.

* ElementalRockPaperScissors: The bulk of magic attacks of course, consist in this cycle: Fire burns Earth, Earth blocks Air, Air best Water and Water beats fire. Light and Darkness are effective against each other. furthermore, Darkness is effective against Earth and Water, while Light is effective against Air and Fire.

* NoSell: Alleron and Daria can't directly harm each other, being half-siblings and children of a God.
* NonHumanSidekick: Cahw the crow. Also a friendly "coyote" in the Maze level of the City of Magic.
* OneWingedAngel: [[spoiler: Averted, when you defeat the first form of Daglathor he simply turns in another copy of himself with a different element (namely first Water, then Fire then Earth).]]
* OurElvesAreBetter: Averted, the only elves seen ingame are a bunch of aggressive bastards.
* OurGoblinsAreDifferent: They're blue, and their element is water. You also need a petrified goblin in order to solve a puzzle.
* OurOrcsAreDifferent: Usually met as foes, some of them are good guys who will help Alleron on his quest more than once. In the second stage you even have to help the old Orc chief against his political rival.
* RavensAndCrows: Cahw.
* RedHerring: The Great Inquisitor.
* SealedEvilInACan: Daglathor. Daria is trying to release him.
* {{Stripperific}}: Daria is, to tell it bluntly, dressed as a slut.
* TricksterMentor: The Chief Abbot who helps Alleron on his quest and offers to remove is mask.
* [[spoiler: TheEndOrIsIt: The game ends with Daglator's temple exploding and Alleron emerging safe and sound from the ruins, but as he leaves, Daria stands up from the crater, still alive and kicking.]]
* TopHeavyGuy: Alleron.
* VideogameCrueltyPotential: At one point, you can burn a prisoner (or a ghost?) alive in a furnace. However if you do so, [[OneHitKill his wraith will appear and kill you where you stand.]]
* TheUndead: Many enemies.
* UngratefulBastard: The King of the Elves. After you recover his sword from the King of the Troglodites he repays you with steel.
* UselessUsefulSpell: Averted by the Charme spell: It always works, even on strong foes, and is quite useful.
* WakeUpCallBoss: Balthus the Jailer. If you haven't found a fire spell tome or a light spell tome you're screwed.
* WhatTheHellHero: When Alleron meet an imprisoned and powerless Daria in the Temple of Daglathor, he steals her key and leave her to die without a second though. Ok, she tried to kill him several times, but....
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Daria is eventually tied to a... weird structure. With No reason given.
