Heroine's Quest - Free on GOG

by Silver, 22:02

GOG has made Heroine's Quest available for free.

A retro-styled adventure RPG with an atmosphere just like the classics – Heroine's Quest: The Herald of Ragnarok is available on GOG for free!

Like in many adventure games, you have a world to save, and must use your wit, guile and inventory to puzzle your way through. Like in many roleplaying games, you can customize your character with various classes and skills, and must train yourself in combat to stand a chance against the fierce monsters in your way. Each class has its own solution to the numerous obstacles, where the warrior is the most straightforward to play, the sorceress focuses on smart solutions and finding the right spell for the situation, and the rogue cheats her way through life without getting caught.

The game is designed in the spirit and atmosphere of the classics, and strives to have the same high quality of art, music, and plot. With multiple character classes and several solutions to many puzzles, there are plenty of options for further replayability.

Check this awesome title out!

Moreover, we'd also like to give a shoutout to Tyler, also known as tfishell, a member of our community who (and not for the first time) helped us bring the game to our catalog. The quest to make games last forever is certainly easier with passionate adventures like you!

Heroine's Quest: - Review @ Knights of the Castle

by Couchpotato, 04:39

A small blog by the name of Knights of the Cardboard Castle posted a very late review for Heroine’s Quest: The Herald of Ragnarok this week. Here is a sample of the review.

One strange omission from my list of played games is the entire Quest for Glory series. I actually did play snippets of King’s Quest on a friend’s PC but I only really started gaming shortly after the first Hero’s Quest game was released. I heard plenty about it later on but since I never played the first one, I never felt tempted to play any of the sequels either. That’s why when I heard about Heroine’s Quest recently on Broken Forum, I was immediately interested. It is nothing more and nothing less than fan-led project to make a game in the exact same style with a heroine as the protagonist.
