About Hero Company

The old boss fled. Now YOU run Hero Company. Every day, hopeful adventurers walk through your door with polished résumés and suspicious smiles. They say they've slain dragons. They say they've led armies. But can you trust them? Spend your limited gold to ask probing questions. Cross-reference their answers with what you know about each profession. A knight shouldn't be talking about forbidden necromancy. A mage shouldn't be winning arena brawls. Every five days, the newspaper publishes your performance review — showering you with bonus gold or ridiculing your terrible hiring decisions for the whole kingdom to read. Recruit wisely. Reject ruthlessly. Keep the company afloat. Features: - 100+ unique character traits to investigate - 4 profession tracks with hidden compatibility scoring - Dynamic newspaper system that reacts to your performance - Chinese and English language support - Clean, atmospheric dark-fantasy UI

[h3]Improve:[/h3] - Odd to use "spent X gold" in one message and (-x gold) in another. They mean the same thing right? - There is no setting to manipulate audio. Want to adjust music/sound volume. - When you do the final recruitment decision for the week the newsletter popup appears before you can see the results of your last choice. The end of week displays should allow the player to see both. [h3]Suggestion:[/h3] - Be nice to get a supporting description for each type of "Needs". For example, what does "Arcane-Chaos Talent" even mean? - Something feels off about the progression. For example it seems like once you start getting good at knowing who to hire and who not to, there's really nothing the player can do deliberately to boost the amount of money they can make per we…

This game is confusing. The instructions are unclear, and the mechanics even moreso. There's not even an easy way to exit the game.

Idk man it's like paper please but it's a Disgaea recruitment screen or something. Red thumb of doom because you made me feel dumb. Not because it's a bad game. Gonna attack pc specs too.

Sekiro cheap: what our price record shows, and what to avoid
