Our take on Big Helmet Heroes
Four playable combat styles define the experience, from the Warrior’s sword and shield to the Rogue’s twin daggers, Brute’s heavy weapon, and Monk’s staff-based aerial movement.
What is Big Helmet Heroes?
Big Helmet Heroes is a 3D beat ’em up adventure set across fantastical realms.
Players battle enemies, explore imaginative levels, rescue a princess, and use surroundings as weapons. Four hero styles shape combat: the Warrior combines sword and shield, the Brute uses a heavy two-handed weapon, the Rogue attacks with twin daggers and stealth, and the Monk fights with aerial movement and a staff. Each hero also has special powers for breaking obstacles and defeating enemies. Local two-player co-op lets two players tackle encounters together. The game presents its heroes and environments with cinematic presentation and detailed animations.
