Герои ("Heroes") is a comprehensive strategy game in a compact format, ideal for playing at home, on the road, and even on a video call. All you need is a tablet and a marker, and now your name is already emblazoned among the great conquerors and rulers of the Ethereal Gate.

In this game you are expected:
— Six factions with unique game mechanics

Each faction has its own strengths and weaknesses, use their abilities wisely
— Develop your own castle and collect armies

Strengthen the castle walls, expand your possessions and prepare your army for battles
— Exploring new territories and searching for artifacts

Go at the head of an expedition to search for treasures. You never know what the forgotten lands are hiding…
— Epic battles with monsters and rivals

The game lasts 16 rounds.

At the beginning of each round, the first player selects four out of five actions for that round. Each player writes the numbers 1-4 in the corresponding cells for the selected action. The numbers determine the order in which the actions are performed and their level. Higher numbers correspond to later actions and higher levels.

Available actions include:

• timber extraction
• iron mining
• gold mining
• moving (with additional actions after moving such as battles, obtaining resources from the region, capturing a fortress, obtaining artifacts)
• construction and hiring

After the first player completes the selection and recording, they announce the moves to other players, who then record the same moves on their own tablets. Players then execute the actions in order from lowest to highest number. Players perform each action simultaneously, without moving to the next until all players have completed the previous one. This is important for movement actions, after which interactions between players in the same area are possible. When all players complete an action, the round ends and a new round begins. The first player in the next round is the one sitting to the left of the previous player. If the sixteenth round has been completed, points are awarded according to the rules, with some factions having different scoring systems.

The player with the highest score wins!
