When a hero guild saves the village of Torden from a kobold threat, tavern keeper Herb is inspired to pursue his own heroic journey.




PixelQuest - Herb's Adventure offers a nostalgic experience in the vein of classic 16-bit RPGs. Immerse yourself in a richly crafted world, interact with a wide range of NPCs, engage in tactical battles, and discover powerful new equipment. Whether you follow the main storyline or explore side quests, you'll encounter a host of intriguing characters and stories.

Level up, enhance your attributes, and customize your combat dice with new faces. Develop your skills and spells through an extensive skill tree spanning four key attributes: Strength, Agility, Skill, and Talent. Choose your path to become a melee powerhouse or a versatile battle mage.

  • Deep Skill Tree: Tailor your character's growth with a comprehensive skill tree. Focus on Strength for powerful melee attacks, Agility for defense, Skill for special abilities, or Talent for potent spells.
  • Many Abilities and Items: Use rerolls, techs, and spells to maximize your potential in every encounter. Utilize items like healing potions, throwing darts, and smoke bombs to turn the tide in tough battles.
  • Engaging Exploration: Traverse a vibrant world filled with secrets and side quests. Meet unique characters, uncover hidden lore, and experience a story rich with humor and heart.
