Critic Reviews
RPG Fan
By Hilary AndreffIf you're a fan of Quest for Glory, school-based adventures, or rogues, you want to sign up at Hero-U right now.
GameGrin
By Gary “Dominoid” SheppardI found this to be too slow for my liking, but if you want a slow-paced game with lots of idle chit-chat and an occasional battle, then this might be right up your street. The sedate pace and minimalist mechanics will probably divide critics, but this one found it dull and unengaging.
Pure Nintendo
By Dawson HeltonHero-U: Rogue to Redemption is a fun game with great exploration, unique graphical design, and a great fantasy setting. Despite all this, I found myself having a hard time getting into the overarching narrative of a young thief on his road to redemption.

By Wil RatermanHero-U is hopefully the first installment of a new franchise, granted the developers can continue their amazing work. This is one of the better genre revivals within the past couple of years and is well-suited for anyone in search of a curious and witty endeavor. Try to play this point-and-click adventure on PC.

By Heidi HawesThe combat is uninspired and tedious, as is the music. The time mechanic is a great idea and adds a level of strategy to the game, but it’s poorly explained and results in a lot of wasted time trying to figure things out. If you’re a fan of 80’s and 90’s action/adventure RPGs, especially the Quest for Glory games, then maybe give it a try if it’s on sale.
