![]() You’ll likely lose health during these encounters, but whacking away at the local vegetation is a surefire way to finding some food and replenishing it very quickly. You also have a shield ability, which you’ll rarely see outside of boss scenarios.Ĭombat isn’t exactly deep, and as a rule of thumb you can just rely on melee for most of the trials and perhaps switch to ranged when you encounter a boss character where you want to keep some distance. You also have the ability to switch between Zoel and Elia, which changes up the gameplay and control mechanism in that one is more geared towards melee and the other prefers ranged attacks. Most trials involve getting from A to B in a set amount of time with a ton of bad guys standing in your way, and most can be dispatched with one or two presses of the attack button. Gameplay is fairly straightforward and of the button-mashing hack ‘n slash variety. There are ten trials to overcome, with boss battles at the end of them to mix up things a bit. ![]() Story-wise, the trials ARE the story, so there isn’t much in terms of meaningful conversations or plot twists. ![]() Narratively, things don’t really change much from there, as the game is essentially a series of (linear) trials you have to work your way through. They’ve overslept, so it’s time to rush to the first trial. Heroes Trials wastes no time introducing its setup – you play through the (underdeveloped) story as Zoel and Elia, two students who are hoping to ascend to hero status through a series of trials. That’s why I was looking forward to Heroes Trials, which looked like a new (though very scaled down) take on the genre. It’s 2019 now, and the Vita hasn’t sees a lot of other candidates in the genres pop up since then – the conversion of The Bard’s Tale comes to mind, and with a stretch of the imagination perhaps also the Ys titles. As one of the few Diablo-inspired action RPGs on the Vita, I thought it was a more than competent port despite a few shortcomings. While we didn’t play the game on the big screen, here are our thoughts on the Vita version.Īlthough it wasn’t especially well received, I had fun with 2011’s Dungeon Hunter: Alliance for the Vita. Heroes Trials is now available for Sony’s handheld as part of a cross-buy purchase that also nets you the PS4 version of the game. Ratalaika is starting off 2019 like they spent most of 2018 – still actively supporting the Playstation Vita.
