Hero's Hour v 2.0 has now landed on Steam, GoG and of course, here where it all started, on itch.io.

  Hero's Hour is an accessible, yet-deep and content-rich Strategy Roleplaying Game. Take control of your hero, explore the world, build up your town, fight fast-paced battles, level up your hero and amass an army large enough to take out the opponents - before they take you out.

  

Turn Based + Real Time

While exploring the overworld and developing your town and army are both turn-based, giving you time to think and plan out your next moves, in battles your units will do the best to fight for themselves in real time - all hundreds of them. Cast spells and give attack orders to swing the tide of battle - or just sit back and watch as your might unfolds.

  

Procedural Generation

Hero's Hour brings impactful procedural generation to the strategy game formula, ensuring that every time you play, there will be new areas to explore and strange buildings to enhance your hero or army. Seek out obelisks to start you on small procedural quests that send you around the world. You won't even be able to use the same build order each time you play the same faction.

  

Features

12 factions with special mechanics, strengths and weaknesses 24 hero classes, with a special skill each 46 common hero skills 301 units - 200 without counting upgrades100 unique unit abilities 145 artifacts 81 spells & abilities Dozens of impactful map buildings Local "hotseat" multiplayer Co-op with other players or even with the AI There's a lot of stuff in this little game!

  Being on the faster side compared to other turn based strategy games, you may even be able to finish the hotseat games that you start!

  You can follow the development of the game on twitter.

  A lot of the graphics are by iknowkingrabbit.itch.io/, the rest by me, KraftKraken or Krisys . Music and sound is currently being remastered by Lautaro Ariño, but there's some by me and Tundralaks left.

  There's still bugs around, and if you manage to catch one, or one catches you, do get in contact at [email protected] with a description of the bug. Here post v 2.0, I'm planning on updates on a weekly basis until bugs are ironed out.
