Lori and Corey Cole, developers of the Quest for Glory series of RPG games, are back and looking for funding through Kickstarter for their newest project, Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption. If successful, the game should launch Autumn 2013.
The Nintendo Switch Point & Click Sale is offering discounts as high as 76% off for adventure games on the Nintendo Switch.
WTMG's Heidi Hawes: "Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption is a game that fans of Quest for Glory will probably love, but other gamers won’t. It plays similarly to those games in many ways and makes tons of references to them as well. The writing is humorous and full of puns, but the story takes far too long to get interesting. The combat is uninspired and tedious, as is the music. The time mechanic is a great idea and adds a level of strategy to the game, but it’s poorly explained and results in a lot of wasted time trying to figure things out. If you’re a fan of 80’s and 90’s action/adventure RPGs, especially the Quest for Glory games, then maybe give it a try if it’s on sale. For everyone else, if you’re looking for a great point-and-click adventure game, try Röki instead."
Playing Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption is like curling up in front of a fire with a good book: you give yourself to the story. Bugs and obtuse puzzles aren't enough to detract from what's a unique and thoroughly entertaining experience.
shame i'm poor
This series was so great on PC.... I loved all of them. I never beat the last one... Why can't these games get released again. Hero's quest, King's quest, Space quest, and even the garbage Police quest. That was gaming!
