Reviews for "Hero's Arms"
addictive and really well done!
Everybody is saying how this is like Zelda; well, I never played Zelda but I do think that this game is amazing. It reminds me of another game on this site called Chibi Knight, but yours is a lot better.
The game is well balanced and the puzzles are just right. Usually I hate getting stuck on puzzles in RPGs, but I didn't stuck on any here. I think the people who get lost trying to figure out what to do just haven't paid any attention to what the special weapons are for.
Also, I noticed a lot of people are bitching about only being able to buy fancy items like the fire sword or w/e it is on a different website. So what? Who cares? Can't you still enjoy the game without the overpowered weapons?
The only "cons" I can think of is that the life upgrade doesn't seem to do anything. Also, when the main villain sends you back to your house, it kind of seems like you're replaying the game but with harder enemies.
Overall, a great game. Looking forward to the sequel if you're making one.
It's like Zelda 1 and 2 mixed together.
Don't take that in a good way though. In Zelda 1, there was nothing pressuring you to kill enemies. In Zelda 2, they were kinda in your way and you wanted to level up. This combines both of those factors, and the end result wasn't so enjoyable. The first thing I did in this game was walk into the house, level up, raise magic 'cause that's how I like to roll, walked back out, found some enemies and found out that magic was USELESS 'cause I only have 4 shots with it and it wasn't even magic really. The story was weak, and I mean WEAK. Satirizing cliches usually found in games as a story and having NPC's spew out gibberish that they expect you'd expect them to say seems like a cop-out in place of any real story development. One guy who I didn't like as much as every other character in the game told me to go northeast to what I expected was a dungeon with a boss and I was right. Happy me. I died so many times to the point where I wanted to give up but I didn't because I wanted to see at least one boss before I quit. Eventually, after skipping out on most of the enemies, I ran to a giant squid thing that I couldn't damage enough to begin calling it a fair fight. I wanted to stab that NPC in the face after he sent me there. Now, besides everything else I've mentioned up to this point, there are two things hat bothered me the most. 1) Why are some items only available on Kongregate? It baffles me. I see no point to it whatsoever. 2) An ad came up while I was exploring one of the dungeons. I don't know what you were smoking when you programmed that, but that should never, EVER happen in a game.
ii iits b-bu ..
o my god it buetiful
(non internet) The game was great i felt like playing zelda 3 a link to the past
Good game overall.
Nice retro adventure overall. You got two points off though: One because the thing takes so long, and another because I can't figure out how to get access to Gordzak's place. And yes, I have the items required, I know where it is, I've been to that place, and nothing happened. Not exactly logical.
