The Good
- Fresh approach to traditional adventure gaming mixed with an effective use of humour. There is much to do and explore, and plenty of interesting characters to meet. The music is excellent.
The Bad
- Presence of combat may discourage some players. RPG elements such as frequent skill-building sometimes feel like wasted time. Genuine puzzles are few and often too straightforward. The game world doesn’t evolve.
Our Verdict
Good
A solid adventure that is generally enjoyable, though it lacks enough polish or ambition to recommend without caution.
While actual puzzles are meagre and interspersed with RPG elements, So You Want To Be A Hero offers a fun and unique experience and never ceases to be an adventure game at its core.
