Hero Survival

Do not buy this game, The devs have abandoned it and it has so many bugs. Hit boxes arent accurate so you will get hit when you see you shouldnt. Your shotgun and other guns will just stop working (see other reviews confirming its been a bug for over a year). No button optimisation. When you level up if your next to a mob already you will get hit when you select your "upgrade". I see no positives in this game. Probably the worst wave based game I have played and I love this genre. Save your money and buy anything else.

Hero Survival is a fast-paced action roguelite built around a simple but dependable idea: survive increasingly dangerous waves of monsters while gradually turning an initially vulnerable character into an overwhelmingly powerful fighter. Developed by PigeonDev, the game uses familiar creatures from classic horror, including vampires, werewolves, mummies, and other supernatural enemies, but presents them with a colorful retro style rather than attempting to create a genuinely frightening atmosphere. The result is an arcade-oriented survival experience that prioritizes constant combat, character development, and experimentation over storytelling. Each run revolves around staying alive as enemy waves become larger and more difficult to manage. Early encounters provide enough room to establish a build, but later stages demand better positioning and increasingly effective combinations of weapons and abilities. This escalating structure gives the combat a satisfying sense of momentum. Watching a character progress from cautiously avoiding small groups of enemies to destroying entire crowds is one of the game's strongest pleasures. The controls and overall mechanics are deliberately appr…

The first word that comes to mind when trying to describe Hero Survival is "unremarkable". True, it's not the end of the world that it isn't groundbreaking or innovative, but I genuinely struggle to think of anything, any moment, that I felt like this game did something *better* than another game I've played. On the contrary, I can think of almost everything that this game does another game does better. Weapon variety? Mostly reskins with a couple of uniques (one is so unique it just doesn't function and hasn't for over a year). Heroes? No unique skills or abilities, just adjustments on the base stats. Story? You get maybe 15 lines at the start and nothing else. Enemy Variety? Same enemies on every map, that are either "fast and low health", "normal" or "slow and many health". Even the *upgrades* and levelling are weak - most of the level up bonuses are temporary for some godforsaken reason, and a lot of the upgrades and stats are so random and obfuscated that anything that isn't damage, crit or speed is generally not even worth thinking about. There's little polish, even less intrigue, no stakes or unique features to add spice. This is plain flour, dry toast, or another simila…

It's just too bland as a Survival game because of the lack of skills in game. There's only 3 classes and no mixing among them, which leads to a pretty repetitive gameplay.

Why not, give *Hero Survival* a try!? For those who could appreciate dynamic, tactical action and possibly admire inventive design, *Hero Survival* introduces a distinctive combination of chaotic, roguelike gameplay, and heroic allure. It appears to cater to both casual participants and those who might relish diving into intricate mechanics, delivering varied experiences with each attempt. With boundless upgrade possibilities, eccentric references, and compelling challenges, it could reward skill, creativity, and a penchant for all things heroic with many possible rewards!! Whether you pursue unpredictable gameplay or a celebration of heroic culture, *Hero Survival* just might prove to keep you entertained.

Probably the most boring autoshooter game I have ever played.
