Hero Generations

Unplayable on 4k. Wasn t worth even the 70 cents i payed for it.

I think this game is as good as it's sequel.

Interesting little game, I love the concept/idea. Of course, like many gamers I'm quite tired of/over the 1983 graphcis every dev seems to use to call indie/retro. I understand finacials, but you can use your funds to improve over time, with the goal being to improve graphics (I mean come on, play HOMM3 from 30 years ago and it's not difficult to understand 2d or isometric graphics don't have to be pixel bliips..lol). As to the game itself, it is deepr than it seems, and can be a challenge as you learn what lies below the surface. I've had fun ewith it, and do recommend giving it a shot, IF you understand you actually need to LEANRN how to play it and the nuances around themechanics. Only problem I have is the lifespan should be longer, I think there may be a way to edit the save file (lol) to do that, but that';s the only thing i find frustrating. Otherwise It's a decent little game, I wish the concept/idea could be fleshed out in a more polished/graphical game. Still ifs fun to play, and I will be playing on occasion.

Hero Generations Review A nice little Indie Adventure lies in wait… Some key points that this game offers: 1. Beautifully hand drawn art style. 2. Permadeath for that extra challenge. 3. City Building and upgrading. 4. Six unique worlds to find, explore and conquer each crafted in their own brilliant theme. 5. Family legacies. Gameplay & Controls: The controls are pretty much mouse only, using the left mouse to click where your character moves, and by moving it can be in one of four directions, up, down, left or right unless one of those paths are obstructed by the edge of a map or an immovable object. Lastly over certain buildings such as towns or shops you can click to enter moving into those towns or buildings, this may seem very shallow. I do ask that you keep an open mind, this is a minor indie game that may not have a lot of depth, but it is still one fun experience with some unique gameplay mechanics. Graphics: The graphics are beautifully hand drawn with a lot of artistic effort behind it, the game really looks like a piece of art; each area has its own theme, look and feel such as the swamp area with its murky water and gloomy grassy surfaces. Each area also has a whole bunch of different characters that the players fight against, some bandits, others ghosts, and a few other creatures, each also uniquely created having their own looks and style. In the options side of things, we can choose from several different resolution options along with an option for special effects and lastly Window/ Fullscreen mode. Sounds: The game has a soundtrack that compliments the game quite well, it is soothing and really sets the tone, but on the downside the music can be a bit overwhelming at times, and feel slightly repetitive. There are no vocals in the OST, it’s all melodies so it has its perks there, you can always turn that off in the menu and play your own music, unfortunately the options for the sound is limited to turning the Music and Sfx on or off. The game houses several unique sounds from picking up items such as gold down to interacting with objects. Replayability: The game doesn’t really offer a big reason to replay it, but from my perspective this can be a little side line game you play when breaking away from a serious session or when you just want to play something simple and relaxing for a while, this game really fits into that category well. MGR Gaming’s Conclusions: Spoilers ahead: When it comes down to the numbers Hero generations is quite a unique game that houses a few popular genre’s such as Strategy, RPG and Rogue-like gameplay all in a simulation that you can Sandbox if you want. The game has a decent tutorial system that teaches you the mechanics of the game and how to best go about building up your legacy. From my understanding, before it was ported to Steam it used to be a simple Flash game that really was brilliantly designed and sure it lacks content and longevity, but it still packs quite a decent punch. Usually in RPG’s we create our character and then set out on quests, we have a similar experience here just quite different, we start with our character, male or female its usually random at a random age and each move you make in a direction deducts one year from your lifespan. Your goal here is to explore, battle and gather fortune and fame all in time to make it back to a city to find a mate, get married and have a child to continue your legacy, thus starting the next generation of your conquest, and this can be done in six beautifully created worlds. As you play and explore current and new worlds, quests become available offering large fame if you manage to compete them giving some purpose to the Sandbox mode should you wish to indulge in those. As I originally stated the game might not be long or complex, its simplicity really keeps you hooked and busy, as you gather gold you can build a variety of buildings next to town, all which can be upgraded by future generations making the game easier and more fun to experience. In the recent years the developers have created a remastered version of this game that added a lot of new mechanics and improved the game itself, and by doing so they also reduced the price for this one, it can be bought by itself or you can buy the Hero Generations - Collector's Edition which includes the OST and a PDF art book, whether the game is on sale or not. It really is a good game to have that can offer you several hours of joy whether you want to play something relaxing or just something different, this game has it on offer.

Legacy system needs improvement, building degeneration is irritating, you don't improve much between generations.

[h1]Here is the dealio[/h1] [i]This game has mixed reviews because people were not happy about the release of Hero Generations: Regen. Which is essentially the same game with some minor graphical and quality of life improvements. In the original you have to play it in windows mode, there is no choice. There is no graphics option, there is, no real options to speak of. While I can somewhat understand why people are upset the developer released a "new" game, I don't think its entirely fair.[/i] There is enough improvement in the new game over the old game that I can understand the developer wanting paid for that work and not offering it as patches to the original game. The developer even offered anyone that had copy of the original game a discount on Regen. I didn't get to take advantage of that discount (they basically sent out steam coupons that did expire, but at the time I wasn't really picking up games or getting on steam much at all, so missed out on them. However, they did send me several over the course of like a year or two) I will say that Regen does open with a very similar launcher I've seen in some independent demos and betas. That's kind of jank, but it's whatever, at the end of the day it doesn't really matter or change anything. When I got the original game it was regular retail of $14.99, instead of the regular retail of $5.99 it has today (and I paid full price). I was not upset back then, and felt like original version of the game was worth what I paid. So obviously I think it's worth the current $5.99, and if you can get it on discount then even better. I would still recommend this game, in either it's original form, or the newer Regen version. It's easy to pick up and play, but deceptively challenging and deep, for such a simple presentation and package. It's certainly not a game for everyone, so I'd recommend watching some game play videos to see if it's the kind of game you might enjoy. [u]So let's say you've decided you do like this game and you want to know what version you should get. Well here are some things to consider:[/u] [list] [*]Are you ok with playing in a medium sized window you can't resize? [*]Do you want the soundtrack but don't care about the art book? [*]Do you care about the art book, but not the soundtrack? [*]Do you think slightly better graphics, full screen mode, save slots, and upgraded options are worth $10? [/list] [i]And, here is why those questions matter when making this decision[/i] The only way to get the soundtrack (here on Steam) is to buy the original version of the game with the collector's edition. There is no offering for the soundtrack on it's own or with the Regen version of the game. If you get the collector's edition of the original game (that must be played in windowed and lacks several quality of life upgrades) you will get the art book and the soundtrack. If you get the Regen version of the game, then you automatically get the art book (the exact same art book as is offered with the collector's edition of the original version of the game) you will have a game that has slightly better polished graphics, with lots of quality of life upgrades to the options, but you will not be able to get the soundtrack, and you will pay $14.99 (assuming you pay full retail price) as opposed to $5.99.
