In action roguelike I Wanna Be A Hero, carry a big stick and wield powerful skills to survive

Subscribe to Pocket Gamer on

You want to be a hero, but you're woefully under-equipped for the job. With only a stick and an octopus helmet, you must rely on your magic and buffs to survive.

You can choose from a large pool of abilities as you level up, ranging from fireballs and lightning to stunning attacks, flame transformations, and area-of-effect strikes.

The game isn't turn-based, so you must learn each enemy's behavior and evade their attacks in real-time to ascend the tower and face the evil master.

I Wanna Be A Hero is available on iPad and iPhone for £2.29 / $2.99 and feature no in-app purchases.
