Do you enjoy hack-n-slash but longed for a bit more? Maybe you like tower defense games but find them a bit boring? Heldric is a unique mix of the same old styles of game with a few new twists. A hack-n-slash without endless level grinding. A tower defense game with more action. A game where you don't play as an epic hero, but as a humble shoemaker who must work together with his fellow villagers to defend their home. Build and upgrade the village quickly before the attack waves start. Each building you place adds unique abilities to not only the player's character, but your fellow villagers as well. You must choose your structures wisely, as there are only a limited amount of plots to build. Each villager contributes to your coin income and provides essential help in defending the town. You must help defend against waves of monsters intent on killing everyone. Do you have what it takes to survive?

First, we've added an early version of the campaign map. You will be able to select villages and see your progress. Each village will have different objectives and a preview map.

And now for the really fun part, and who doesn't like fire? Well now you can roast some orcs as they come into your peaceful village. Placement and direction of these new shrines will be crucial to your success.

Each shine can be upgraded for a larger area of effect and stronger effects. You can visually notice the changes as they are upgraded.
