Heroes Must Die - the Show!
About the Game
Kill heroes first. Ask questions later. (Note: game does not actually require you to ask any questions)Heroes Must Die is the story of a young hero forcibly conscripted into the villain's army, and viewing classic RPG trials from this perspective. Faced with the daunting task of dealing with the world's evilest boss, stupidest minions, daringest freedom fighters, and troublesome-est posers, how do you survive a world where all sides are in conflict? Battle through hours of challenging combat (even we have to work hard to beat our own game), laugh out loud dialogue (but like, for real, not a 'lol'), and surprising story turns (seriously, a professional playwright wrote this game).
Heroes Must Die is an action-RPG with aesthetics inspired by the best roleplaying games of the 16 bit era, with the sophisticated story and design of modern epics. Follow a grand and fun story of trying to break the world and then save it. Combat is easy to learn and difficult to master. And best of all, it's free.
And if that wasn't enough, Heroes Must Die has a sequel - an interactive stage show that brings video games to life - now available here on Steam!
Features:
- Unique Combat - An action/puzzle battle system different than anything out there, but still intuitive. Simple rules but difficult to master.
- Actual Writing - Heroes Must Die brings sincerely funny dialogue and engaging story. Not content for half-assed reference humor, HMD brings its full ass, and borrows a few other asses, to tell a structured tale with memorable characters and moment after moment of making you laugh without interrupting the flow.
- Pixel Art - Retro-inspired graphics from artists who grew up on the best of the 16-bit era. Detailed backgrounds and sprites full of personality are brought to life with only the most limited of technology!
- Rockin' Soundtrack - A fantasy/orchestral/prog rock mashup of funky tunes propel you through the game. Available for download!
- No Inventory - Just focus on the fun stuff.
- Not Roguelike - Sorry, it's not, but this is a good keyword to have
- Alienware FX implemented - check out those lights on your Alienware laptop!
- Free - Yup.
- It Also Exists in Real Life - Info coming on how you can see the live-action, audience-interactive play!! That's worth at least two exclamation points. Three? What's the conversion ratio, here?

I was really immersed into this game at the beginning but by the end it felt like trial and error with the combat.
If you enjoy playing RPG's, especially the ones of old, then as a random, wandering adventurer, I implore you to play this.
It's not the longest game, but that is more IN it's favor than not, as it does a great job of making you laugh, while keeping you entertained with it's mix of references, jokes, and (stratetgic) battles. I say stratetgic battles as this:
1. In your attack phase, connect as many foes in your 5 slide movement as you can, while keeping a similar combo, such as RED to RED or MAGE to MAGE. Each attack that follows this suit adds to your combo meter, causing the last foes in the chain to take quite a beating if your chain is 3 (2 damage) or at 6 (4 damage). Chaining is the only way to damage bosses. If you wipe out ALL the enemies in a single sweep (in that wave), the next wave appears, but does not get to attack.
2. In your Defense phase, all your enemies gang up on you, and you die. Unless you "casually cheat" and quickly memorize where they're about to hit, and dodge out of the way by hitting the correct "DODGE" panel(s). They attack in turn, with two moves being shown one after the other. So long as you pay attention (and have preschooler-level mouse moving skills), you'll have little issue with your evades. Every foe of a given type (grunt, heavy, mage, ect.) uses the same attack patterns, making it all the more of a "DOH" when you mess up a simple dodge, or forget what panels the archer is about to hit.
Outside of bosses, the most hp something can have is 4 (like you, for example). With a bit of quick thinking, a good 90% of the battles can be dealt with, without taking any risk of being hurt.
For the LOW, LOW PRICE OF FREE....
Wait, why are you still here? Get out there and enjoy this game!
Too many time in battles all of the dodge points are within the attack pattern. the battle mechanics are not user friendly either often time it seems have graphics showing over the battle interface making it very difficult to see. on a scale of 1 to 5 I'd only give this a 2.
