With most fantasy-themed games you play as the hero of the story, well not today as A Hero’s Rest turns the stereotype on its head. Developed and published by Vanargand Games, this fantasy town RPG game has been an overnight hit with its exposure reaching an all-time high at Steam’s Next Fest. Now, we can finally jump in with A Hero’s Rest entering Early Access on Steam.

A Hero’s Rest puts players in the shoes of not the hero, but the town the hero visits on their journey. In this unique position, you will be able to aid the heroes as they pass through and use your town’s services. As you progress you build and expand your town, enticing more heroes and hopefully the favor of the King. 

We can’t wait to see how A Hero’s Rest is updated and supported throughout its time in Early Access. It’s quite a fun concept and we can understand why it really rose to popularity once the general public audience caught wind of it. You can check out the official trailer above as well as jump into Early Access on Steam. Let us know down below if you’re going to try this one out and keep on the lookout for more coverage.
