“Had a random itch to play this game since I played it on mobile when I was a kid. Still fun but I miss some of the mobile features such as the homing bazzoka, Grenade launcher and the forest style levels”
— a player, Steam review · 15 hrs played“This rendition is certainly not nearly as good and polished as the original Random Heroes games, however, it's still not terrible. There's enough levels, guns, and heroes to have an hour or two of gameplay. Plus nearly 40 achievements. ♡ Gameplay: 12/20 ♡ Writing: 10/20 ♡…”
— a player, Steam review · 3 hrs played“Too grindy with not much of a challenge. Plays great on Steam Deck, but a few achievements were unlocked without trying? Didn't finish all the levels since it is pretty much the same repeated design without the fun factor.”
