New "Easy Mode" Game Update

We're excited to release our first update in nearly 4 years to Hero Generations: ReGen! We're addressing one of our biggest player requests by adding a new, more forgiving play mode! "Easy Mode" games have two rule changes. [olist]

Clouds do not reset on new generations, letting you avoid having to scout the same tiles again.

Town improvements (buildings around towns) do not decay. [/olist] Easy Mode offers a new way to play that lets you more easily make progress and explore all 6 biomes in a generated world. It also lets you more easily create some of the 20 town crafting upgrades. Give it a try and let us know how else we can improve this mode to fit your playstyle!

Call For Feedback And Reviews!

It's important to us that we address your feedback. If this update does that, we greatly appreciate you giving the game a positive review on our store page, or updating your existing review to reflect this! Doing this helps us reach more players, and justify development time away from our new game in development, We Are The Caretakers. We would love to spend more time continuing to improve and add to the game!

Gameplay Details

In Hero Generations: ReGen, each step you take is an entire year of your hero's life. You explore a procedurally generated world in search of fame and a mate to have a child with before you die. After your life ends, you take control of your child in the world you left behind, in the hope of continuing your family legacy. Each turn becomes a meaningful life decision: you can focus on building and crafting the world around you, or adventuring to far off lands to make a bigger name for yourself.

Key Game Features

Limited Lifespan and Permadeath: Each turn your hero takes = 1 year of their life.
Generations, Mating, and Having Children: find a mate, start a family, have a child. Then take control of that child in that same world!
6 Strategic Paths and Meaningful Choices: grow in Strength, Exploration, Love, Wealth, Fame, and Wisdom.

Expansive Overworld: explore a connected grid of 6 unique biomes, each with their own unique tileset (Volcano, Desert, Island, to name a few)
