About Desktop Heroes
Desktop Heroes is an idle RPG that runs in the background at the bottom of your screen while you work. Your party of four customizable heroes quests, fights enemies and collects loot in real time. You can let the party progress while you focus on other tasks, or step in to claim rewards, upgrade gear and make strategic decisions.
Heroes and adventures
The party can include a spell-slinging Wizard, a sword-wielding Warrior, a precise Hunter and a stealthy Assassin. You unlock new regions, fight powerful bosses and uncover secrets as your heroes grow stronger.
Desktop features
Desktop Heroes includes two modes for using the game alongside other tasks:
- Protect Mode: hide the game from people viewing your entire screen during a meeting.
- Virtual Mode: work with areas behind the game at the bottom of your screen without closing it, including reading text or clicking on items there.
The game uses pixel art and is designed to run quietly without pop-ups or distractions.
