Using well-known franchises in the production of simple games is the norm. This is the case with Sega Heroes, which is nothing more than a typical match-3 with famous characters. In this particular case, we have been handed over the heroes of the Sega games. We team up with them and go on an adventure to fight other famous heroes.
The mechanics of battles are simple and based entirely on the match-3 features. Each character is assigned a specific color. Combining crystals of the same color allows the specific hero to perform an attack. If you can combine its crystals enough times, it will deliver a special attack. About the only advantage Sega Heroes has is the world and funky graphics. If you want to play without spending extra money, get ready for hardcore grind, because at some point, the level of difficulty increases steeply, and you need to go back to the previous stages to be able to develop the characters.
- Sega Heroes for iOS is available here, and for Android, here.
