Loop Hero is a game developed by the Four Quarters studio, which has created an experimental puzzle game Please, Dont't Touch Anything. Loop Hero, in turn, is a hybrid of several genres, such as rogue-lite, card game and strategy game, where, playing the brave hero, we set out to rescue the pixel-art world.
Loop Hero is set in a medieval fantasy world, where the peace of the inhabitants was disturbed by the evil Lich. With his powerful spell, the world has been thrown into a timeless loop of chaos and destruction, and our task as a brave hero is to save it.
Loop Hero is a game that takes inspiration from several genres. And so, in part, the game fits into the roguelite format, because we go through randomly generated levels, and we spend the loot and goods gained during that process on improvements in our settlement, each of which makes subsequent journeys a little easier. We can also find elements of strategy and card game, because as in the case of Hand of Fate, we create a path, on which we will move depending on the cards that we have as well as those added to the deck. Among them we will find those with enemies, traps, but also parts of equipment or goods necessary to expand the settlement. In addition, during the adventure, we have the opportunity to play several different fantasy classes and each of them has a unique style of gameplay, as well as strengths and weaknesses.
Loop Hero features an atmospheric pixel art with realistic and detailed sprites, reminiscent of SNES console games.

Game Ratings for Loop Hero Video Game.
Game Rant: 4.5 / 5 by Robin Meyer-Lorey
Downsides include the frustrations of randomized loot, an occasional grind to getting enough materials for the next camp upgrade, and the fact that by the time the fourth and final chapter rolls around there are few more secrets and combos to discover. Still, the game is a genuine gem, and for $15 at full price, it's worth getting hooked on.
PC Gamer: 83 / 100 by Evan Lahti
The spirit of early-'90s fantasy games, cleverly revived in an original and digestible form.
TheSixthAxis: 8 / 10
If its aesthetics appeal and the gameplay style grabs you, then Loop Hero will take over your gaming life until you finish it or are drag yourself away. It reminded me strangely of the allure of Football Manager but with a more fantasy setting. The combination of auto combat and strategic choices, with resource management and settlement development on top, makes this a unique and captivating indie game.
