Oh wow, this game. Needles to say it's a fun as hell little platformer that doubles as sorta of a musical where the narrator sings about your adventure as you progress through the game. So it's like having an invisible bard follow you around. True it's not in English so you don't get to understand the lyrics but that in no way is a hinderance on the game itself. In fact you don't even need to know the language to play the game since it does a fine job explaining what buttons do what in the beginning. The graphics are pretty good and the art style fits each stage fairly well. from the greenery of the forest to the cool lighting effects going on in the caves. The music is probably the best part of this thing. Each level has a song tailored just for it with lyrics to boot and they fit the atmosphere perfectly for wherever it plays. Heck it even changes as you progress through the stage to r
Review by Gaming Masterpieces - The greatest games of all time on Steam. Is this game a masterpiece? Yes, it is. A classic side-scrolling platformer with a few RPG elements thrown in, inspired by classics like Wonder Boy III. Finally the english version of this Brazilian game has been released, after years of waiting and playing it in its original Portuguese language (and not understanding a word). You play a hero who sets out to rescue a princess. Slash, jump, duck, shoot fireballs from your sword, use your shield, become invisible... nothing special, although well-made. What IS special, though, is that the hero sings... nearly nonstop. He comments on anything that you encounter, see or do and makes fun of video game cliches, and he does it in a brilliantly written, incredibly witty and sarcastic way that you simply have to smile if you are a long-time computer player. Subtitles are
Songs for a Hero is a quirky musical & 2D platformer developed by Brazilian developers, Dumativa Game Studio. It was released in the developers’ native language of Portuguese, but is now fully updated for a more International audience with English voice-overs and subtitles. It is overflowing with creativity and an absolute blast to play, with plenty of replayability, all DLC’s included upon purchasing the game, and with a fair price of $AU22.95, I highly recommend it. Pros Humorous musical narration that adapts to player actions Light-hearted fun Immense replayability All DLC’s included (extra campaigns/skins) Plethora of differing bosses & enemy types. Cons Inability to skip boss cut-scenes after dying Story The protagonist, Hero, sets sail on a treacherous journey to save the Princess from an evil, unknown villain. There are many obstacles in his way, but a hero wil
I really recommend this game! The idea behind the game is really good. The dinamic vocal singing what happens in the game is something that makes the game much more interesting. Also, the funny lyrics and the nice melody make the soundtrack perfect. And so is the gameplay. It reminds a lot some classic games from the past. The controls are good, they aren't complicated at all. The game is challenging and fun to play, you can expect many hours playing and singing along with the Hero in his journey to save the princess 10/10, would die for a stone thrown by a monkey again
Follow our curator page: IndieGems if you like and want to see more reviews like this one. Songs for a Hero - A Lenda do Herói is an incredibly witty and musical platforming adventure game that was released in its native Portuguese a few years ago but finally had its International Update to give it a full English localization very recently. For people who cannot understand Portuguese, this is pretty much a brand-new release. I had the great fortune to be offered a copy through my curator group, and I have been having a blast with it for the past several days. The game is pretty accessible, the trailer tells you pretty well what you should expect, and I would suggest anyone who is interested to have a good giggle or two over that. Plus, there's a demo available, so why not try it yourself before deciding to purchase the rest of the game? For people who are used to playing 2D side-scroll
You ever play a game that advertises a really unique feature and go "Can this even work?" then play it and change your tune to "OH BOY THIS CAN WORK REALLY WELL" in the first hour? That's what Songs for a Hero did to me. I'm keeping a much closer eye on Brazil in the future, because this game is a total work of heart and love for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive era of gaming. See, Songs isn't just trying to play on your nostalgia - it wants to be your nostalgia in the best ways possible. Not only does it sing to you in a wonderfully comedic fashion, but if you turn off the singing (which you can do if it bothers you) then you find an amazing homage to Wonder Boy and several other Sega titles layered into it. Sound effect and music design, physics and motion, and the look itself have all meshed into one of my favorite games of 2020. There were challenging points in the game, but never a poin
