About the Game

Holy Heroes is a cooperative game for one to four players, sharing the same screen on a single computer via keyboard and controllers (type PS4, Xbox and generics). Players can choose from 9 distinct hero classes (Knight, Dwarf, Barbarian, Wizard, Cleric, Ninja, Necromancer, Paladin, and Archer) to explore diverse floors and biomes in pursuit of main or side missions. The game features 9 spheres of power (Air, Water, Earth, Fire, Life, Death, Magic, Mind, and Nature) that influence monsters, enchantments, and enhancements, along with a variety of items to equip and use.

In addition to multiple floors to explore with increasing difficulty, the game includes traps, weather changes, portals, guardians, lever systems, and other elements that constantly demand players' attention, keeping them engaged.

• Acquire weapons, armor, shields, accessories, and more.
• Discover your strategy by freely choosing your spells.
• Forge and reforge items to always be prepared for any adversity.
• Learn special skills and acquire professions.
