Loop Hero (Video Game)	comment	Loop Hero is a Roguelike Deckbuilding Game developed by Four Quarters and published by Devolver Digital. It was released for PC on March 4, 2021 and for the Nintendo Switch on December 9, 2021.The Lich has erased the world, plunging its remains into void and never ending chaos, in turn causing an endless time loop. The lone hero wanders a procedurally generated path on loop automatically. To restore the world, players wield a deck of mystical cards based on their memories to place enemies, buildings, and terrain during their expeditions.

Loop Hero (Video Game) / int_1859b3e2	comment	Power Up Let Down: There's an inverted example, strangely enough. Enemies in later chapters gain additional powers, but in a few cases these powers only benefit the hero, such as Vampires dealing damage to all living creatures instead of just the player.

Loop Hero (Video Game) / int_1c0d4155	comment	Necessary Drawback: Placing the right combinations to create more powerful Geo Effects will inevitably come with drawbacks; the most immediate one is the Mountain Peak that appears with a 3x3 grid of Mountains and/or Rocks; MASSIVE Max HP boost, but will also spawn hostile Harpies along the path every so often. The gold cards each give the player a significant bonus that applies to the entire map but each comes with its own particular drawback. The Ancestral Crypt for example gives the player one free resurrection at full health and grants additional maximum health for each creature with a soul killed. However this comes at the cost of negating all the health points on equipment.

Loop Hero (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6	type	Boring, but Practical
Loop Hero (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6	comment	Boring, but Practical: The Arsenal. Giving your character an additional item slot is always useful, and it's downside is negligible in comparison to the other gold cards. The Blood Grove. It will instantly kill any enemy below 15% health, including bosses. Deleting the Grove used to spawn it creates a Hungry Grove, which kills enemies at 20% health but can also attack the Hero. Oblivion. This card clears any tile, both of placed cards and any monsters that have spawned. It's useful for clearing out annoying Bandit and Goblin camps, destroying dangerous monster stacks, or just tidying up the place when you misplace a card. Slowing loops. Each completed loop increases the difficulty of enemies fought, which means the player should ideally minimize the number of loops they complete before fighting the boss. The best way to manage this is to only equip items that increase the Hero's defense and none that increase their damage in any way; this will significantly slow down fights, allowing time for more mobs to spawn each loop granting more cards early on. The Necromancer's Art of Control trait, which adds +1 to your summoning cap. Spiders. The second monster players will encounter, they don't have any notable drops, won't be transformed by geo effects, and don't develop any particularly dangerous abilities. However they are a roadside tile and so a single egg can spawn onto up to three tiles. And while they don't provide useful loot, they are a good source of easily farmed cards and will trigger the Ancestral Crypt's health upgrade.

Loop Hero (Video Game) / int_3f0310d6	comment	Magikarp Power: Placing a Vampire mansion next to a Village will turn it into a Ransacked Village, which spawns four ghouls every two days. However, after three Loops it turns into a Count's Lands, which grants greater benefits than a normal Village tile (better healing and quest rewards, plus bandits cannot spawn on it). The Bookery shuffles up to three of the cards in your hand every time you pass it which seems like a useful if boring ability. However, it can only do this twenty times before it becomes empty and causes a Tome to join combat in any adjacent tile. Tomes, along with the Mages they can produce via Geo Effects, are the most reliable source of the rare Time Shards.

Loop Hero (Video Game) / int_4832a3bb	comment	Always Chaotic Evil: Zigzagged but mostly Enforced by nature of the game's Grey-and-Gray Morality. The Hero's rebuilding of the world will inevitably-reintroduce hostile entities into it, such as Goblins, Bandits, Harpies, and Vampires. The first time around, the Hero will always try to reason with them, pointing out that with the world in its current state, they should be working together to survive instead of fighting. It never works; the Goblins don't care about saving the world and just want to rob because "it's in a Goblin's nature", the Bandits blame the rest of society for the situation and see robbery and murder as fair turnabout, the Harpies are more concerned about preying on the survivors to feed their starving children, and the vampires have gone mad with bloodlust due to the lack of sustenance in the environment. (The Vampires, at least, can come around through exploitation of the Geo Effects - though hostile ones will still spawn.)

Loop Hero (Video Game) / int_63c6c615	comment	Dynamic Difficulty: Although the strength of monsters is somewhat increased for every Loop done in a run, the main challenges are self-inflicted, due to terrain cards interacting with each other. For example, placing a lot of Mountain and Rock terrain together will create a much larger Mountain Peak that boosts the player's HP, in addition to summoning Harpies and Goblin raiders on their route. The developer secret bosses have abilities which scale their difficulty proportional to the player's activity. Deceiver's health increases based on the total number of monsters the Hero has slain; Blinch gains extra Evasion the longer the current expedition has run; TheRandom gains attack damage based on Encyclopedia completion; and Finlal attacks faster the more the current map has been filled.

Loop Hero (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8	comment	Guide Dang It!: Astral Orbs, which are necessary for several end-game buildings, are the hardest material to acquire as very few enemies drop the required Time Shards. While Prime Materia drop them, the chance of one spawning is exceptionally low. Time Watchers can drop it normally, but they tend to flee combat before death. Instead the best method is to exhaust a Bookery so it begins spawning Tomes on nearby road tiles and place either a Vampire Mansion or Temporal Beacon overlapping the road to create mages. If you don't use a Bookery or never allow one to exhaust, there's a good chance you'll never see an Astral Orb in your entire playthrough.

Loop Hero (Video Game) / int_b983a56b	comment	Came Back Wrong: Chapter IV reveals that the god Alpha was once stabbed by a human they created, who thought he was a threat because of his inhuman glow. Alpha was so surprised they let a part of himself die, and he eventually reincarnated into Omega, whose sole wish was to recreate that surprise by erasing humanity until a new challenger appeared.

Loop Hero (Video Game) / int_c6655b23	comment	Fallen Hero: The main bosses started out with good intentions, but turned into this: The Lich was a powerful mage trying to avert The End of the World as We Know It due to entropy. Confronted with the reality of Omega, he came to the conclusion that speeding entropy along was the best course in hopes that Alpha would be reborn in the end. The Priestess is a saint of unwavering faith, following with her God's plan even after realizing he's turned to evil. The Hunter is a hero who saved worlds from Eldritch Abominations, but upon discovering the unstoppable nothingness consuming the stars he decided to Mercy Kill the rest. Alpha's death at the hands of a human turned him from a creator god to a destroyer god, craving one last confrontation against humanity.

An unknown person complained to the Hunter that making black holes into hounds was impossible. The Hunter had already made two.

However, one of the possible traits unlocked by beating a boss gives a similar (but much less powerful) effect to the protagonist; in addition, the Necromancer can summon a Guard Skeleton that redirects all enemy hits towards itself until it dies.

Loop Hero (Video Game) / int_dc1a6b76	comment	Reality Is Out to Lunch: The protagonist is building the world piece by piece. These pieces try to adapt to each other to avoid paradoxes, but some combinations result in reality breaking down: Obliterating a tile when it's spawning an enemy will replace it with a Black Slime. Its lore entry is a database error. A wheat field that's never been sown will have its blades of grass replaced with literal blades. The forest's attempts at rebuilding human civilization are houses of living wood and vines with eerie moving replicas of humans inside. More generally, the menu screen shows what the loop looks like from an in-person perspective: A path and chunks of terrain floating suspended in a black void.

The encounter is significantly harder than the boss from the same act. Another secret boss can be found by Filling the entire road with swamp tiles; however, unlike the other secret boss, it's mostly treated as a joke, and is unable to damage to the Hero One last secret boss can appear if you take the "Second Thoughts" trait when two or fewer other traits exist. The boss can remove traits from the player, but by this point the player should be powerful enough to destroy it in seconds.
