I cannot think of a single YouTube trailer that would do the addictive, compelling new video game Loop Hero an iota of justice. That's not a remark on its 360p resolution or 8-bit color depth; we've seen plenty of games work within such confines while looking beautiful and fluid. But this dark RPG doubles down on simplicity, thanks to itty-bitty sprites, limited animations, and a menu-swapping interface that combine to scream the word "boring."The game includes some aesthetic exceptions, particularly a few higher-res illustrations, but the point stands. Loop Hero was made to work within the processing confines of an '80s PC, as opposed to immediately capturing your imagination at a single glance. The reason lies in the game's key design principle: in more respects than any other RPG we've seen, Loop Hero wrests direct control away from the player. If you thought the menu-driven combat of pioneering JRPGs was too "hands-on," you ain't seen nothin'.In a figurative sense, this game reimagines Camelot as a hamster wheel, where knights like Sir Galahad have become tiny, pixellated cogs. Yet as boring as that might sound, I cannot stop playing this game.After nearly writing off this Devolver Digital game as another uninspired, lo-fi indie game, I decided—admittedly, upon a colleague's prodding—to give Loop Hero a spin. Pretty quickly, I discovered a fascinating twist on the "idle" genre—thanks to how it gives players significant choices, secrets, upgrades, and even a compelling narrative. The results won't be everyone's cup of barely interactive tea, but if you like the idea of a "second monitor" game with tasteful dashes of tower defense and deckbuilding, you should seriously consider running Loop Hero in the background of your nerdy life.You don’t control the game... the game controls you A simpler version of the Loop Hero map. In this primary "walking around the loop" interface, you're the white character in the top-right of the loop. The game opens with your hero—and nearly everyone else—waking from an amnesia-like blackout. In a daze, your hero sees a single road ahead and marches forward to jog their memory, unaware that it's a loop—but also uncovering more monsters, landmarks, and increasingly powerful weapons with every step on the path.
