Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption

Post by ola small dickie »

"The Quest for Glory creators are back, showing they're still at the head of the class for classic-styled adventure-RPG hybrids."

The Good:

Really captures that Quest for Glory essence by providing a flexible narrative that incorporates lots of player agency
Intuitive writing rewards observant gameplay
Subtle guidance makes players feel very in control of how and when the narrative unfolds
Interesting environments realized through painstaking attention to detail
Side quests serve to flesh out supporting characters and develop strong relationships with them.

The Bad:

Combat remains fairly superficial
No voice work at all
Some repetition comes through by design.

Our Verdict:

The founding family of Quest for Glory has returned with an all-new unofficial entry that proves worthy of its predecessors’ legacy yet still manages to distinguish itself entirely on its own. Existing fans will be thrilled to see all the classic design staples make a return in Hero-U, while newcomers can enjoy a witty, substantial (if somewhat bloated) adventure-RPG experience.
