About
Hero Generations: ReGen is an innovative and award-winning Roguelike/4X Strategy game where every turn is one year of your life. It’s been called “the offspring of Sid Meier's Civilization, Jason Rohrer's Passage, and The Legend of Zelda."
Explore, find a mate, build a home, and raise a child before you die to keep your legacy going. Hero Generations is simple yet deep: 4X Strategy on the individual level. Each turn is a meaningful choice, without the tedious micromanagement.
THE ULTIMATE REMAKE
ReGen is an amazing complete remake, redesigned and packed with 100s of new features. Powered by the Unity Game Engine, you'll experience a blazing-fast framerate, all-new high resolution graphics, and a massive single-screen Overworld with no loading between areas. Experience all-new quests, battle to the new end-game, and compete with your friends on all-new Steam leaderboards. Also includes a bonus 36-page art book PDF!
