====== fheroes2 is a recreation of Heroes of Might and Magic II game engine ======

https://flathub.org/apps/details/io.github.ihhub.Fheroes2.

<code=bash>
flatpak install flathub io.github.ihhub.Fheroes2
flatpak run io.github.ihhub.Fheroes2
</code>

To play fheroes2 you will need to copy the 'ANIM', 'DATA', 'MAPS' and 'MUSIC' folders from Heroes II to the fheroes2 folder.

For example:
  * ~/.var/app/io.github.ihhub.Fheroes2/data/fheroes2/ANIM
  * ~/.var/app/io.github.ihhub.Fheroes2/data/fheroes2/DATA
  * ~/.var/app/io.github.ihhub.Fheroes2/data/fheroes2/MAPS
  * ~/.var/app/io.github.ihhub.Fheroes2/data/fheroes2/MUSIC

Alternatively, the demo (only one scenario, no campaign and limited assets) can be installed.

If you have a legally purchased copy of the original game, copy the subdirectories ANIM, DATA, MAPS and MUSIC (some of them may be missing depending on the version of the original game) from the original game directory to the $XDG_DATA_HOME/fheroes2 (usually ~/.local/share/fheroes2) directory.
