Great game. A little tweaking on the world map graphics and this beats any of its competitors. Really it shines on its own and Id recommend more and more people play so it actually blows up lol wish you guys the best take care.


Yay, your back supporting this game.


We want to play this game it looks fun but after it finishes loading it crashes every time if you see this devs please help.


After 75 days of playing this, we noticed many patterns that made us realize that we had wasted time and money on a game where the market is broken, and the kickstarters ruined the gameplay. Every four hours a prize goes out to one "random" player that has an approx cash value of $20-100. Just about every other prize goes to one of the five or six "elite players" every single day. These players "randomly" win one a day where as normal players may win once a month, or never depending on their activity. The game is extremely expensive to play and get started in already. Nearly forcing you to spend real money to participate fully in battles, and to upkeep your gear and fighters. You start with nothing, and you will be able to kill nothing worthwhile until you get gear, but guess what? Gear is extremely overpriced because of the wealthy, and gear is hoarded by the wealthy. Only second hand or extremely low durability gear is sold (gear that will break after a few hours of pvp in game). The gameplay itself is fun. But the whole point of the game is investment and grinding. Which is not fun to do when you see the same people sailing past you by winning free things repeatedly of extremely high value. There have been suggested fixes for this made to the developer and it’s been ignored.


Game has 6 classes of fighters, many gear builds and tactics. Battle music is great. Either solo a battle with controlling up to 12 fighters, or co-op between max 4 players. It’s a fun grinding game. PVP and guild system can have some improvement though.


This game had an Amazing outcome, after being kickstarted from The community of The Infinite Black,and other awesome players in which is another awesome Spellbook game, The studio is a small independent company that is a community runned studio and we love them! The game has never got us to play for days, but when we do play we have a nice community to speak to that is always friendly and willing to help anyone, and new players are beneficial all to the game, and is fun to watch the game grow in it’s own way, we recommend you guys play this, It’s an amazing game with a lot of time put in! Good Hunting, Fly safe!


The game reminds us of some of the old school D&D dungeon crawl, with a chess-like fighting style, fighting is all turn-based. Many different races, many different fighting styles to choose from. Lots of different gear combinations to find and create. Loot is always plenty, quests are always being generated and Mods are known for spicing up the quests. Communication has many chat designs so you are never alone in the game. Co-op fighting is a lot of fun, player vs player is also welcome if you like that kind of thing, but it’s not mandatory for playing. The game has an AI mode can manage your fighting team for you if you choose, guilds exist in the game that will give you permanent stat increases and you level your fighters as you go. Well worth a try, and the game doesn’t nickel and dime you, More updates coming in the near future!


Really enjoy this after a few days still. We only hope they have license to use all the Two Steps From Hell music so there isnt any copyright infringement.


Good developer who is active in in game chat and updating game based on what the community wants in terms of QoL and such. Good for a new free game.


First of all, this game is cross-platform so you can play this on your phone or on steam (computer). One of the devs actually spoke with us and our buddy on day 1 and we were already getting free gifts from random people after we asked them questions and by the end of the night, we got a into a guild. Awesome game!


Heroes of dire is basically a combination of chess, combat, and gearing. There are tons of different fighters with an endless combination of fighters and gear in your squad of 3. The game allows accommodation for many strategies. The staff are very responsive, and actually play the game and use their forums. We have firsthand seen many suggestions implemented within 24 hours and many bugs fixed within an hour.


Fun game. Still in the building process and is constantly growing. Best part is the developers listen to players feedback and build the game based off of player feedback. Btw, you can turn the phone landscape.


Love the concept behind this game. Being a long time player of the infinite black we like the small similarities between the two games. There are definitely a lot of improvments to be made but this is to be expected on a new game and if we know anything about spellbook studios, we know they will fix them. Im not giving up on this game quite yet. We like the concept and it is fun but it still needs work. Check it out!


Small team, but they did a pretty great job. Keep improving on the game and it will succeed. Just started will update.
