Legends of Heropolis 9+

Thank you Kairosoft; we begged, and you listened, and have now released every game we asked for (surprisingly) in the order we requested them. Whether you read our reviews or that was just coincidence, I for one am very grateful you took the time to translate so many great games.

This is one of Kairo's new-design games which I assume uses Unity. The gameplay is fun and fairly varied, but could be explained a little better regarding some of the game mechanics. You're a hero. You can change into a costume of your choosing. You defend buildings. You fight bad guys using an ATB system and tapping attack repeatedly while you wait for your attack energy to regenerate. You build stores and structures to draw other heroes into town to fight alongside you. Overall, I think there could've been greater emphasis on an RPG character development system that wasn't so confusing and limited as this one is. It's not bad; it just could've been so much better! The game IS fun though, regardless.

The only major complaint I have is that it is yet another freemium game and it didn't need to be, but that's just my opinion. I would rather spend £4 on a full title, than be bombarded with ads and attempts to get cash out of you for convenience sake. It's around £9 to turn ads off and get a small boost in items daily, which I find way too expensive considering the game is essentially still asking for money for other things later on.

If that's what makes them money, then fine, I understand, but please consider that not every game needs to be freemium - sometimes we just want a complete package that doesn't constantly beg for connectivity with friends, waiting for energy bars to refill slowly, and money money money.

Overall, a fun new Kairosoft title that's definitely worth trying for the sake of being free. And if you like this, you may also like their new Train Station sim, too.

I'd give this one 7/10.

I've been playing this for a few days and have no clue what I'm actually doing. I know that Kairosoft generally takes a little while but seriously this is ridiculously complex without any real reason to be. The bidding wars to get new items are awful, sitting waiting for a screen to light up while the opponent continually uses the "reduce funds" button so nothing can happen as that pauses everything.
Possibly the worst game they've made and I sat through anime and arcade!

Just tried three times to get into this game after installing it and it said ‘transmitting’ and then check my connection, not actually been able to start and play the game so I’m not sure what it’s actually like if it is still an active running game I’m not sure
