If you love fire emblem, you’ll love this
Fire emblem has been my favorite franchise in anything ever since I first played fe7 about a year ago, and I gotta say Heroes doesn’t disappoint. I’ve played nearly all the games, so it’s fun for me to see all these familiar characters in one setting like this. The gameplay took a bit of getting used to, since with the screen size the farthest your people can really move is 1-3 spaces, but that doesn’t necessarily slow it down. I think the art is really good *rebecca* …I think most of the art is really good and there’s clearly a lot of work put into it. In case you weren’t expecting this for some reason, there’s a lot of fanservicy alts for characters, so if you’re into that stuff good for you, if you’re not it’s easy to ignore. Love fire emblem, like heroes. Probably 8.5/10

Lowering my rating
I rated this 3 stars a long time ago because it was fun but could also get more expensive than what I found reasonable for the content, but things have since gone downhill. The latest maps are now fully unwinnable unless you have a very specific set of characters with very specific abilities applied. On top of that, the paywall has only gotten more ridiculous. No exaggeration, it can cost hundreds of USD to unlock a full banner of new characters even with FEH Pass (Pass isn’t worth the cost, BTW), and if you want to get everything, you’re looking at thousands or even tens of thousands of USD to do it. Winning the latest maps is practically hidden behind a paywall now (I’ve unlocked nearly 1,000 heroes and don’t have time to try each and everyone for each and every map), and as a result, the fun is gone. This is no longer a good game, and that’s sad because I really like the Fire Emblem series.
