Loop Hero Goes Big on Steam; Over 30k Players in 24 Hours

Loop Hero, a strategic rogue-lite with RPG elements, turned out to be a real hit. During a single day, the game from Four Quarters was launched by over 32 thousand people.

IN A NUTSHELL:
  • Yesterday, Loop Hero was released on Steam;
  • In one day, the title attracted more than 30 thousand players;
  • Of the thousands of reviews on Steam, over 90% are positive.

Yesterday, Loop Hero was released on Steam. The game combines several genres, such as RPG, rogue-lite, card and strategy game. The title uses pixel art, and its atmosphere is set in medieval fantasy. Our hero is transported to a world plunged in chaos thanks to a time loop spell. The distinguishing element of the game is that we do not directly control the actions of our character, but only create the level so that his skills enable us to complete the task successfully.

Although we are dealing with a small, independent game, its results after just one day after release are impressive. At the hottest moment of the day, 32,700 people played Loop Hero at the same time.

Currently, the title has been reviewed by nearly 1,000 people on Steam, with 96% of reviews of the game being positive.

Thus, Loop Hero becomes a positive surprise of March. Who knows, maybe after the success of last month's Valheim, it's time for another indie game that will attract the crowds?
