Heroes & Redemption

Heroes & Redemption is a rogue-lite bullet-hell game in which you fight progressively stronger enemies using different characters and combinations of abilities. Play as the warrior Otwin Reid, defeat creatures that suddenly appear in the world, recruit companions and search for those responsible for the chaos.

Fight and explore

Enemies spawn from every direction. You level up by defeating them, choosing one ability from a random selection each time. At the hub, you can spend gold to buy characters, runes and empowered skills that evolve your powers. Special map locations and achievements can unlock new characters and abilities.

Altars appear at specific waves to mark level objectives. They can appear in random places and give you random tasks; completing them or killing enemies earns soul shards.

Heroes and abilities

There are 8 playable characters, each with different ability appearances and strengths. The roster includes a furious warrior, an elusive rogue who attacks from the shadows, a spell-weaving mage and a paladin who wields a hammer. The game has 20 active and 22 passive abilities, for 42 skills in total, as well as 29 empowered skills that enhance base skills.

Equipment

You can spend soul shards on armor and rings. The 4 armor sets offer different trade-offs: some provide more protection but slow you down, while others offer less protection and grant different powers. You can combine sets or choose the one that suits your playstyle. The 10 rings each grant a unique power, including increased strength or speed, soul-absorbing magic and life-stealing abilities.

Altars and bosses

The game includes 4 types of altars, each with different tasks, as well as boss fights. Completing altar objectives is required to finish levels.

The world

You fight across a dark crystal cave, an old graveyard marked by forgotten tombs, a snowy village, toxic sewers filled with perilous waters and creatures, and an old prison with ancient stone cells.
