## What Is HeroVerse (HER)?

[HeroVerse](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/heroverse/) is a match-3 puzzle and RPG [play-to-earn](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/play2earn-play-to-earn) game that presents itself as the “first pioneer to bring the Top Grossing Mobile Genre Game to the blockchain universe.” HeroVerse aims to replicate the success of match-3 puzzle games like Candy Crush Saga by combining puzzle game elements with RPG elements, where players can receive rewards for winning battles and advancing through levels. The game combines [NFT](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/non-fungible-token) game concepts with traditional gameplay to attract players from both sectors. 

Heroverse also adds RPG features like exploration and looting, with players activating quests in the game’s metaverse. Moreover, the game features a Daily Raid mode, allowing players to complete missions to receive rewards. The game’s roadmap promises the introduction of other gameplay modes such as Tower, PVP, and Clan Event by the end of Q1 2022. 


## Who Are the Founders of HeroVerse?

HeroVerse is being developed by a combination of experienced game development and blockchain development teams. In charge of game development is Vietnamese studio Hiker Games, which is also behind a host of other mobile games, such as Caravan War, Toy Odyssey, Gleam, Eraser, and many others. The blockchain development part is led by Rikkeisoft, a Japanese company with years of experience in web systems, business process systems, and mobile games. 

HeroVerse also showcases a vast network of partnerships, listing experienced blockchain companies like Redkite, [DAOMaker](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/dao-maker/), Cinchblock, Kyber Network, and many others as project supporters. 


## What Makes HeroVerse Unique?

HeroVerse stresses that it is a **play and earn** instead of a play-to-earn game since the focus is on delivering a relaxing and entertaining game experience instead of maximizing players’ profits while playing. The game’s story revolves around the player picking from a pool of 29 different heroes with distinct personalities and power abilities. Heroes belong to one of four races: Human, Beast, Forest, and Demon. 

Designed in a colorful comic-book style, the player must battle enemies and make sure their heroes stay alive. This happens through a combination of puzzle and RPG gameplay, where success in lining up puzzle elements increases the player’s chances in battle. Players earn rewards for winning battles, which can later be used to upgrade their heroes and trade them on the game’s marketplace. 

Players can obtain heroes in a number of ways. Players can trade for them on the marketplace, open a Hero Box and win one by chance, stake the HER token, or combine the four Hero Shards and HER tokens to create a new hero. 

The game is divided into different chapters, with each chapter being a location on the game’s map. By completing all milestones and challenges of one chapter, players can move on to the next (**Campaign mode**). Completion of one chapter unlocks a boss fight, and players get one chance per day to fight the boss (**Daily Raid mode**). 

Players can also partake in the **Tower mode**, where they have to pass through 100 floors and receive rewards per each passed tower. Moreover, every ten floors, there is a boss fight waiting for them. Finally, HeroVerse will develop a PvP and a Clan mode, where players can compete against each other or combine their resources to make faster progress in the game.
