About Hero Realms

Become a hero! Choose your class, perform mighty actions, and recruit powerful champions to your cause as you grow in power.

Awarded Origins Fan Favorite Best Card Game.

From the makers of the award-winning Star Realms® Deckbuilding Game, Hero Realms® combines the fun of deckbuilding games with the interactivity of trading card game-style combat. As you play, use Gold to add new actions and champions to your deck. When played, those actions and champions generate powerful effects, give you additional gold, and attack your opponent and their champions. If you reduce your opponent's health to zero, you win!

\
Hero Realms does not require you to collect new cards. You start every game with a basic deck, and will acquire cards from the shared center row to build up your deck and defeat your opponent. Victory rewards skill, and not your collection of rare cards!

\
Create a hero from one of several classes (free players start with the Fighter and Wizard available). Level them up with new skills, abilities and equipment, and take them to battle in thrilling Online PVP. Hero Realms uses fair match making, only allowing matches between equal levelled heroes. However, if you feel daring, you can choose to engage in combat against higher levelled opponents for additional XP and bragging rights.

\
Hero Realms also features online co-operative play. Battle against challenging AI bosses with another human player as a partner. Free players have access to the Pirate Lord mission, with other co-op missions available with the Base Set purchase.

\
For offline play, take on the Welcome to Thandar campaign. Fight your way through scripted, story-based chapters against varied AI opponents.

\
Free players will get to experience:
  • Addictive Deckbuilding Game with Player VS Player Combat.
  • Play VS the AI
  • Play with the Fighter and Wizard character classes
  • Level-up your characters up to Level 3
  • Play the first 3 missions in the Welcome to Thandar campaign
  • Play the Pirate Lord co-op mission

Purchasing the Base Set will unlock the full Hero Realms experience:
  • Unlocks hard AI difficulty level
  • Unlocks the Cleric, Ranger, and Thief character classes
  • Level-up your characters to Level 12
  • Unlocks the entire Welcome to Thandar campaign.
  • Unlocks the Necromancers, Inquisition, and Orc Riot co-op missions.

Seems to be riddled with bugs. And loaded with blatant false ads. The game isn't true 'Free to Play' but a demo at best. The in-game store shows the purchases incorrectly. The in-game store shows the Base set purchase for $0.09 but when you attempt to purchase, it is $9.99. And the 'Call to Arms Set' as $0.0499 If you can't even do that right, you've got the wrong job.

A digital adaptation of one of the classic deck-building card games. This digital version is excellent, and it's nice that DLC is still being released today. I really like the ability to evolve your characters and the fact that there are so many to choose from. I play mostly solo, but the PvP version is also excellent. The DLC is reasonably priced for a game with almost infinite replayability, and I really don't understand what the fuss is about paying for DLC. No one works for glory.

Addictively good. Nice intro into the deck building world.

Final Fantasy XI price: what you pay, then keep paying

The Final Fantasy XI price is two numbers, and the subscription is the one that matters. Our tracked low, what the Ultimate Collection includes, and when buying at list is correct.

Castlevania Belmont's Curse price: which edition to buy

The Castlevania Belmont's Curse price splits in two: Steam charges full list, authorised resellers a quarter less. Our record says that 25% has not moved since June, and is the floor.

Our Starfield price history shows one reseller set the all-time low over five weeks in late summer 2026. What a good price looks like now, and why Game Pass comes first.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.

Rust price: why the cheap keys vanished, and when to buy

The Rust price has two answers: an official one that barely moves, and a reseller one that sat in single digits for 95 days and then disappeared. Our record shows both.

Planet Zoo 2 price: which edition, and when it gets cheaper

Planet Zoo 2 is out today. The Planet Zoo 2 price splits two ways, the cheap pre-order keys stopped existing three weeks ago, and the original got dearer as the sequel landed.
