Hex Heroes planned for Wii U

Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment

Prismatic Games is planning Hex Heroes for the Wii U eShop, an exclusive real-time strategy game for the console. Here’s what you should know:

– One players is the commander
– Commander makes executive decisions, manages resources, and surveys the broad map from a god-like GamePad bird’s eye view
– Other player chooses different classes
– Classes have unique abilities
– Classes go directly onto the map, with an individual point of view
– The second player tries to build up their city, fortify it, explore dangerous new territories, and fight off enemies
– Start a game by choosing 2 of 8 skills (classes) that create a unique combination in what each player brings to the table as an asset to his team
– Ex: Rogue/Archer combo provides stealth/range; Woodcutter/Knight is well-rounded; Woodcutter/Scout is more of a support type
– 4 different players choose their combinations and join together as a team
– Eeach game will have its own strategical way to win
– Asymmetrical gameplay
– Mario Castañed (The Bridge) chose the visual style
– Visuals are simple in complexity
– Graphics are meant to give off the feeling of being inside a strategy board game
– One player will have the bird’s-eye-view of the board game map, while the others will look like little figuring pieces in a board game
– Grant Kirkhope on board for the soundtrack
– Kickstarter should be up on March 25
