21 itemsAbout the Game
First Hero" is a third person hack 'n' slash, based on the adventures of Gilgamesh: sumerian demigod and king of Uruk in 2700 b.c. .
The challenges the player faces are those of the myth, but with some more difficulties. Thugs, traps or clues left by the gods are examples of the work done to enrich the dynamics of the game.
Missions in an open environment;
intricate dungeons;
timed missions;
all-out battles.
As expected from Gilgamesh, the player is blessed with an enormous strenght, that makes possible run and swing fast, climb walls, jump far etc.. The armor can be removed or equiped without open the inventory and is the same for four weapons(2 left, 2 right). So is possible, and sometimes very usefull, to combine different weapons attacks and dynamically adapt to your opponent fighting style.
