description
For centuries, an epic battle between humans and evil lords has been raging, destroying everything in its path. Throughout that time, heroes and legends have risen above the chaos, only to eventually disappear into the pages of history. The would-be hero, the narcissistic evil lord, the crossbow-wielding princess...These three were the champions of their eras and even now, still have one last part to play. The civilized world continues to be laid siege to by relentless evil adversaries and all that remains are the ruins of castles and the bodies of the faithful knights who once proudly protected them. As the last wandering sage and final hope for humanity, it is up to the protagonist to somehow transcend time and death to unite these legends and their unique powers in one last battle against the ultimate evil lord.

Perfect for the Casual JRPG fans With fantastic looking retro-style graphics, a great orchestral with speed metal soundtrack and 3 high-speed game modes to choose from (ranging from Action RPG, Strategy and Shooter). Half-Minute Hero is the perfect portable game for the Casual RPG fan that doesn't want to spend too many hours in griding and it has plenty of depth for the Hardcore RPG fan.

Perfect on the go RPG With it's retro styling and straight to the point game play this is a fantastic portable RPG. Even though you can play the game in 2-3 minute chunks there is a ton of content included.

Great retro feel! This game brought a tear of retro joy to my eyes upon my first time with it. If you are a gamer forged in the olden ages of gaming goodness you will appreciate this game, and if not there is plenty of good stuff anyway, if you appreciate style over substance.
