About False Hero
False Hero is an action game set in a realm ruled by gods of life, where Death is spreading. You play as the husk of a once-diligent scholar, foretold to find a legendary mask and defeat the eldritch evil. In the mountaintop kingdom of Wisdom, you decide whether to fight for the gods and fulfill the prophecy or become an apostle of Death.
Combat and abilities
You evade attacks, combine learned combat arts into combos and channel the gods’ power against your enemies. The mask lets you steal combat skills: each enemy you kill can teach you a unique attack, adding to an arsenal of dozens of combat arts. The gods’ powers also help you solve puzzles and gain an advantage in combat.
The worlds
You explore large, interconnected, surreal lands, including lush swamps, chilling ruins and ancient cities. Each world has its own enemies and secrets. As you uncover the truth behind Death’s spread through a once-thriving realm, you decide whether to rescue the gods of Life or become Death’s apostle and destroy the corrupted lands once and for all.
Enemies and bosses
You face unique monsters and challenging bosses, including giant arachnoids, mechanical beasts, dragons and terrifying angelic beings. Each boss has a distinct moveset designed to challenge you while remaining fair.
