Half Minute Hero Product Details

Released on 19/02/2010

For centuries, an epic battle between humans and the evil lords has been raging on, destroying everything in its path. Throughout that time, heroes and legends have risen above the chaos, only to eventually disappear into the pages of history. The would-be hero, the narcissistic evil lord, the crossbow-wielding princess... these three were the champions of their era and even now, still have one last part to play.

The civilised world continues to be laid siege to by relentless evil adversaries and all that remains are the ruins of castles and the bodies of the faithful knights who once proudly protected them. As the last wandering sage and final hope for humanity, it is up to the protagonist to somehow transcend time and death to unite these legends and their unique powers in one last battle against the ultimate evil lord.

Half-Minute Hero is a bold new concept of having the player save the world, 30 seconds at a time. The player must fight, shoot, summon and protect in four distinct modes, each containing a different perspective and unique gameplay style, across a total of 120 varied stages. The 8-bit graphics and story elements provide a unique style and humour, whilst the hard-rocking soundtrack keeps pace with the breakneck speed of gameplay.

Features:

  • Fast-paced action for instant gratification: A fresh new way to play RPGs, clearing stages in 30 second intervals
  • Four completely different and unique gameplay modes: Four distinct storylines and modes that encompass an action RPG, a shooter, an escort mission and a strategy game
  • Over 15 hours of total gameplay: With each of the four unique modes containing 30 distinct stages, short individual play times add up to many hours or total gameplay
  • Intense multiplayer action: Connect two to four friends through ad-hoc wireless connection for blazing fast competition
  • Old school graphics, new age metal sound: Classic 8-bit graphics give this game its unique visual style, while original music by one of Japan’s most critically-acclaimed guitarists keeps a pace as fast and furious as the gameplay

Half Minute Hero
If you love RPGs, especially old school ones, this is the game for you. The game has a variety of different modes, each with their own play style, but the main and best mode in this game is the Hero 30 mode. This mode is a hybrid of puzzle games and RPGs. In every level in this mode, the main concept is to get to the boss in one way or another in less than 30 seconds. This is where the comedy comes in. What the creators are saying is that you don’t need 50+ hours to complete an RPG and it is a waste of time. There are random battles but they are automatic so you don’t do anything. There are also towns in every level, each with their own shops, people and a statue. The statue allows you rewind time and get another 30 seconds. The game also has a great 16 bit look, which really fits the game. In essence, this is an awesome game that parodies RPGs and is a gem on the PSP. If you are still unsure, you should try the Hero 30 demo on PSN, which is what convinced me to buy the game. 9/10
