While the bulk of portable offerings tend to mimic their console brethren in bite-sized form, a select few dare to separate themselves from what is considered traditional for a genre. It's hardly surprising, given that taking risks from a creative standpoint can be an unsettling venture at times. When risks are taken and executed properly, however, it pays off in spades. Ubisoft's DS title Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes strongly exemplifies this notion, offering a fresh, titillating take on the turn-based RPG genre. 5/5
