About the game
What you do in a play session
Hero Realms is a fantasy-themed deck-building game adapted from the award-winning Star Realms. Players start with a ten-card deck containing gold and weapons. Throughout the game, players buy champion and action cards to enhance their decks, using gold to gain new powers. The goal is to reduce the opponent's health score to zero. The game features various modes, such as Free-For-All, Hunter, and Hydra, and expansions that let players start as specific characters and cooperate against bosses.
