We tell you the minimum and recommended requirements to play Loop Hero on PC, whether you are on Windows, Mac or Linux. This hardware calls for trendy indie.
Loop Hero is trending during the start of 2021. The title of Four Quarters and Devolver Digital is already available on PC, the only platform on which it has debuted so far. The loops of this roguelike and card game fusion remain the order of the day. We already warned you during the last Steam Festival, where he was one of the stars of the available demos.

What do you need to be able to move it? In this piece we review the minimum and recommended requirements transferred from the company itself.

Loop Hero: minimum and recommended requirements
As you can see lines below, the requirements to play Loop Hero on PC are rather low. In fact, both graphics and processor demand models from many years ago. The same goes for the operating system. If you are one of those who have not yet made the leap to Windows 10, you have the opportunity to play Loop Hero

 

We played the demo of the Devolver game at the Steam Festival and learned about its proposal before its launch in March
Loop Hero already garnered attention when it performed at The Game Awards last December. The aesthetic with the limited palette of colors reminiscent of IBM's ten EGA cards was interesting, like an escaped video game from the late mid-80s. Once the demo is tested, it is not just a question of aesthetics, the title has that air ingenuity, encompassing many elements at once, as well as a drive to offer something original in terms of mechanics and history.

The game begins in the apocalypse, or rather it should be said that in the end of the apocalypse, once it has passed. There is nothing or no one left, the protagonist awakens amnesiac in a world surrounded by darkness where there is no sky, lights or stars, only a small path that can be seen among the darker nothingness, po[CENSORED]ted by some slimes that seem to have survived. Reduced to the slightest expression of him, with no memory or hope, the hero rushes to fight the remaining creatures in the world. To their surprise, the stubborn creatures not only have equipment not digested in their previous one, but also forgotten fragments of the world: mountains, meadows, forests ... Through these fragments that we are placing on the map, we enrich the path, finding more creatures and equipment.

Eternal cycle

However, they are baby steps. The world is reduced to a small circular path and everything is lost as soon as the hero has to rest. However, he soon finds that he is not as alone as he believed, there are other survivors, also amnesiac and confused. And that's when a crack opens for hope: the materials that the hero brings and the memories that emanate from them have a certain permanence. The pieces of wood that we have collected serve to restore the idea of wooden walls that are able to remain in the collective memory to create something persistent that improves the lives of others. Is the hero the key to gradually bring back memories of the lost World? What about the figure of the skeleton in a tunic that persists in the memory of the protagonist? What happened to end up like this?

The story is intriguing, but the gameplay is more so. We do not have direct control of the actions of the lonely hero, the world when we rise is always a circular path that we have to repo[CENSORED]te based on the fragments we receive from defeated monsters. The hero will walk and fight without the intervention of anyone, but we will have to place the fragments on the map, determine where on the road we will put buildings and determine where new enemies will appear. Our bonuses increase according to the number of elements we introduce, as well as our chances of obtaining resources and equipment, but at the same time we do that, we will make the path more and more dangerous, running the risk of the hero losing his entire life before I can complete the loop.

An addictive betting component is guessed where the higher we bet, the more chances we have of losing it all. We can retire to rest at any time, but if we do not do it at the starting point of the loop where the equipment is, we will lose a percentage of what we collected. If we manage to build on a map to a certain extent, we will have an encounter with a final boss that will allow us to advance in the story.

The Loop Hero demo has revealed a game that is overflowing with originality in which you have to do more things than it might seem given the absence of direct control. The demo is tremendously entertaining for the limited content it has and we recommend it both for getting to know the game and for its own ability to have fun for free. Devolver will publish the game from the Four Quarters studio on March 4, 2021, at a starting price of € 12.74.
