About Next Up Hero
Next Up Hero is a Gauntlet-style dungeon crawler starring hand-drawn heroes that hack, slash, shoot, drum, boomerang, jet, and explode their way through Ventures. Choose your Hero (and/or invite a friend to co-op) and start rolling dungeons, gearing out, and maxing your stats against the vile monsters known as the Ceaseless Dirge.
- Defeated the bosses? Craft your own dungeon for the community
- Dungeon defeated? Do it on Insane!
- You did that? Then Min-Max your favorite character.
- Maxed all heroes? Tell us what you want next on discord.gg/NextUpHero!
- You seriously did all that? Try it again with your favorite co-op partner.
Next Up Hero? So what? My backlog is full of dungeon crawlers!

Fancy yourself a game designer? Let’s see what you got. Craft a savage dungeon, and challenge the community to beat it. If they beat the dungeon, they get to keep a rare piece of loot. If they fail, the treasure is yours.
Death is so permanent in Next Up Hero that your “echo” remains for the next player to raise. People die a lot in Next Up Hero, so you can resurrect up to 20 AI followers!
It’s Hero vs. Dirge powered by Mixer Interactive. Spectators can control the echo army, helping the hero survive the flood, or buff the Dirge enemies, slowing and freezing the player.Supported Gamepads

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
I played this awhile ago and stopped, but I didn't remember why. I figured I would give it a go again and see if I can refresh my memory and within 10 minutes of playing again I remembered. Next Up Heroes difficulty is ridiculous even on the easiest of levels and if you do beat a level it doesn't feel fun or rewarding. The game is hard for the sake of being hard.10 found this helpful

total junk. online only game. cannot connect to servers, therefore cannot play whatsoever. do not buy it. oh and I forgot about the launcher it uses so you get to start the launcher which for like 2 minutes only has a play button because there is in fact web content and it is in fact caching somewhere on your computer. if you browse around it they might want you to sign in and it said I had 2 games available one of them being kotor 2 i believe but it was just a picture of 2 games and i couldnt do anything with them. so that was a nice waste of time. luckily you dont need to wait for any web content and you can probably just click play which does work and then you find out the game doesnt even work anymore and thats that.1 found this helpful
I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of y…1 found this helpful
That motion blur gave me a damn headache and there is nothing in the options to turn it off, its unplayable for me, also you need to be connected to the server to play the game offline which is bad because i was disconnected randomly. it looks and feels like a moblie game. i was just going through my backlog and i tried it out , i probably got it from a bundle under a $1 or something , its just not worth it at all, stay away from this game.
says co op there is no co op... unless you count getting to level 5 and doing player made dungeons not worth the time or money if u don't like playing solo
