Our take on Arisen Force: HeroTest
The emphasis on combat builds and team experimentation narrows the experience toward repeated preparation and battles. That focus leaves less room for the stealth, dialogue, and exploration emphasis found in some other action RPGs.
What is Arisen Force: HeroTest?
Arisen Force: HeroTest is an action RPG set across time-themed worlds threatened by the Void.
Players begin at the Temple of Time, which serves as a base for assembling teams and preparing for missions. The main story includes six legendary heroes: King Arthur, Catherine, Jeanne, Guan Yu, Hippolyta, and Oda Nobunaga. Each has distinct talents, weapons, and skills, while weapon mods, items, and talents support different team combinations. Skill points can be reassigned under certain conditions. Missions involve fighting through corrupted time-spaces, rescuing heroes, and progressing toward the Demon Tower. The game uses high-definition pixel-style 3D environments and a system with four time periods that changes the scenery as players advance.
