Idle Heroes

I have been playing this game for quite some time, and recent events have made me write this review. Let me say, I love this game. But it’s too difficult to get anywhere without spending money. I’m an avid player, I play every day at 5:00 when my events and whatnot reset, and everyday I max out everything I can do. I may not be the most efficient in the world, but I know what I’m doing. I’m a recent event, the Imps Adventure. I managed to complete all of the shelter mission rewards that gave me the events required items, and I bought the max limit that I could buy with gems without spending any money. It was very difficult, but honestly through that whole week it wasn’t even worth it. The rewards I recieved got me almost nowhere, and I put an hour at least a day into this game. I love it a lot but they really need to make it scale with level on your rewards even a little bit. I’m receiving about the same rewards I was at level 30, and I’m level 113. Developers, if you are reading this, I love your game, but please please please make it playable late game for mostly free to play players. I don’t mind dropping 10 or 20 here or there but I never want to have to pay 50 bucks to even get half of what I need to progress a tiny bit, or grind for 2 months to get the chance for the equivalent of such. All in all love the game but later on levels need serious reworking

So, in the interest of full disclosure, I only downloaded this game and played it to receive a valuable prize in another game I was already playing. Therefore, I expected to play this game just long enough to win that prize and then I figured I’d delete it and move on. Well I was so wrong. I quickly got addicted to this game and that really surprised me as I never play games like this one. I’ve never cared for RPG games as I prefer to play solo and primarily just stick to “sim” type games. After just 3 days of playing I was running my own guild, building up my heroes, and just having the best time playing this game! I highly recommend giving this one a try. Also, you do not have to spend real money to play this. Seriously, I’m level 93, running a guild, I have 2 six star heroes and more 5 star heroes then I can count and I’ve only ever spent 99 cents on this game and that was just for a special offer. They run tons of events to win excellent prizes through game play that won’t cost you any money. Really there is nothing you need that you can’t get through patience and regular game play. I love this game!!! If you are thinking about trying it, go ahead and do it! You have nothing to lose and it really is a great game!!! You can absolutely play solo, but I recommend joining a guild to have more game play options. Guilds are always recruiting and the people in this game are awesome!!! Download and play today!!! Five stars!!!

I love this game, straight up. That being said, you need to understand what kind of game this is in order to enjoy it. First off, no content in this game is behind a paywall per se, BUT you have to realize that if you choose to be Free to Play, you will progress slower than others that choose to spend a little money. The beauty of that is, the majority of content within the game is PVE, which means it doesn’t matter how you stack up against others, you can progress at your own pace. The PVP modes will allow you to see how you do compare against others, but unless you’re a massive whale, you won’t reach the tippy top of PVP for a very very long time. The thing is, thats okay. Your PVP experience will pit you against other players of your level, which will likely be other Free to Play players or low spenders. You won’t feel like you’re unfairly underpowered in the game, just know that in order to progress it will take time, strategy, and resource management to beat the next challenge. I think this a great game, and it gets constant support from devs to keep things fresh. It is a slow grind, if you’re someone that takes pride in each little ounce of progress made, you will thoroughly enjoy it. It also doesn’t require a ton of time sink, you can log in for 20-30 minutes a day and still progress. Very enjoyable experience, 5 stars for sure.
