❤ Gameplay Overview

Players control a king and assemble a party of up to four heroes to venture into different lands and fight fearsome kings and their armies. The heroes fight on their own, but players dictate their positioning and formation to strategize against the enemies.

❤ Party Building

The game features 33 unique heroes with distinct playstyles and abilities. Heroes belong to different factions and roles, and having multiple heroes of the same faction or role provides synergistic bonuses. Players can level up and unlock new abilities for their heroes as they progress.

❤ Positioning and Formation

A key aspect of the gameplay is the player's ability to control the positioning and formation of their heroes. Heroes face the direction of the cursor, and placing them in different positions on the battlefield can change their behavior and abilities. For example, a Druid hero can become a tank in the front, a melee fighter on the side, or a spellcaster in the back.

❤ Loot and Upgrades

Defeating enemies rewards players with gold and items, which they can use to purchase upgrades for the heroes, such as stat boosts, active abilities, and passive bonuses. The loot and upgrades allow players to scale their party's power to take on increasingly difficult enemies and bosses.

❤ Replayability and Variety

Each game zone features unique enemies, environmental effects, and mechanics that add variety to the gameplay. Players can also choose different difficulty settings and modifiers to increase the challenge. The game's roguelike elements, such as randomized hero and item selection, encourage experimentation with different party compositions and strategies.

❤ Player Feedback

Players praise the game's fun and addictive gameplay loop, comparing it to a mix of Vampire Survivors, Slay the Spire, and auto-battler games. They enjoy the depth of the hero synergies and the tactical positioning element. The game's cute pixel art style and the humorous in-game bard character are also highlights. However, some players find the game a bit too easy, especially for veteran players of the genre. They would like to see more challenge and replayability, such as through additional zones, bosses, and meta-progression systems. The controls for positioning the heroes are also sometimes cited as feeling a bit unwieldy.
