Heroic Legends is a free fantasy MMO where thousands of players grind professions, duel rivals, and band together in guilds to bring down colossal monsters. A beloved 2011 mobile game reborn, rebuilt by two brothers with the original creators' permission and the original hand-painted artwork. Create a Human, Troll, or Skeleton adventurer and work your way up from humble Baker to master Jeweler, earning gold and experience along the way. Spend your Bravery to duel other players, forge ever more powerful equipment, and learn spells to tip the odds. The heart of the game is the guild. Complete cooperative quests, march into guild wars that rage for up to a full day, and join monster battles where dozens of players chip away at a single shared health pool over days of fighting. Whether you check in for five minutes or settle in for an evening, there is always another legend to chase. WHAT YOU WILL DO - Work profession jobs from Baker to Jeweler, master them for rare rewards, and climb past 225 levels - Duel other players with Bravery, choosing between Aggress, Gash and Assail - Fight monster battles where dozens of heroes share one giant health pool, and your loot follows the damage you deal - Wage guild wars in three sizes, from a six hour skirmish to a full day of open warfare - Empower your equipment with runes at the forge - Raise a companion from an egg and grow them alongside your hero - Enter tournaments, learn spells, trade at the marketplace, and talk in live chat THREE RACES - Humans are balanced and forgiving - Skeletons regenerate Bravery faster, so they fight more often - Trolls earn more gold from everything they do A CLASSIC, REBUILT The original Heroic Legends launched in 2011 and built a devoted community before it went offline. Two brothers who grew up playing it rebuilt the game from the ground up on a modern foundation, with the permission of the original creators and the original artwork in hand. The revival keeps the spirit and look of the classic while adding new ideas for veterans and newcomers alike. Free to play. Playable in English, French and Japanese.

Own the club. Grow the legends. Rule the sport. OVERTHROW is a deep sports-management tycoon set in Solus... a world where owners don't just field a team, they build an empire. Start at the bottom of a five-tier league pyramid and claw your way to the top through shrewd signings, patient player development, hard-nosed finance, and the occasional dirty trick. BUILD A SQUAD THAT GROWS WITH YOU Sign fighters, set your lineup and formation, and play out matches with live, animated match-day drama with ejections, injuries, momentum swings and all. Every player has a hidden ceiling. Give a young talent minutes and the right coaching and watch them climb season after season. Track each player's year-by-year growth on their own rating chart. HUNT FOR HIDDEN GEMS Somewhere out there is a raw teenager in the 50s who's secretly a future superstar. Scout hard, find them before your rivals, hand them minutes, and watch a Wonderkid rocket up the ratings while your club rises with them. They're rare and finding one is a story you'll remember. RUN THE WHOLE OPERATION Balance wages against ambition. Buy and sell on the transfer market, send prospects out on loan, and re-sign your stars before they walk. Grow your Proving Grounds and academy, court faction backers whose creed pulls your club good or evil, and expand into companies, property and the finer things as your fortune grows. CORNER THE MARKETS, MAKE BILLIONS Your empire runs on more than match results. Trade a futuristic stock exchange, take companies public and buy them out, ride the booms and survive the crashes, and roll your winnings into property and the high life. Turn a scrappy fifth-tier club into a billion-dollar dynasty and the smartest owner in Solus wins as much in the markets as on the field. SCHEME IN THE SHADOWS Hire an off-the-books operative to infiltrate a rival's finances, crater a club's value, force a player out cheap, or set up a private high-stakes table. Every job is a risk. CLIMB THE ALL-TIME RANKS Chase honors, records and a place in the Hall of Fame, and compare your legacy on Game Center leaderboards. Hundreds of unique characters, deep season-to-season progression, and a living world of Solus that keeps evolving. How far will your will take you? OVERTHROW and all characters are part of the Master of Wills brand, owned by Stormcrest Inc.
