Hero Among Us

Hero Among Us is a strategy and management game in which you create a superhero and pursue peace and justice in a world that reacts to your actions and decisions. You manage crises, fight super villains and criminals, and deal with diplomatic disputes between countries. Your choices shape an evolving world, and if it reaches total chaos, humanity loses hope and falls into darkness.

Choose your hero

Begin as a Vigilante, Speedster or Genius. Each archetype has its own combat skills, abilities and skill tree, which you use to balance your hero’s powers and weaknesses and choose how to face villains and crises.

• Vigilante: inspire people to pursue justice themselves and summon amateur vigilantes to help for a limited time.
• Speedster: briefly move so quickly that everything around you freezes, letting you deal with crises and fight villains without taking damage.
• Genius: create a temporary drone in your current country to take damage from crises and villains.

Manage crises and conflict

You handle political, environmental, health and safety crises while super villains work to undermine your achievements and challenge you in battle. You also fight enemies ranging from street thugs to evil masterminds, while staying alert to your arch-enemy’s plans. Each hero has a distinct set of combat skills, and you decide which are best suited to the villains threatening the world.

You also settle diplomatic disputes between countries, where what is good for one side may not be good for everyone. Your decisions have consequences, and each playthrough offers multiple narratives and strategies to explore.

Real-time strategy

The game uses fast-paced real-time strategy gameplay alongside character skill building. The world changes in response to your decisions.
