Hero Seekers sets you off on a hero-seeking journey across an old-school pixel-art JRPG, out now

Following Kemco's announcement of an official launch date last week, the studio is now bringing Hero Seekers to iOS and Android with the task of seeking heroes. The game essentially asks you to imagine a world where heroes have been forgotten, so you'll need to bring back the light and restore peace by balancing the scales.

The heroes you seek can be formed into a party of five—a delightful detail that I personally appreciate, especially given how some RPGs limit your party to just three characters. It also offers old-school JRPG charm with its pixel-art visuals and strategic skill synergies, so based on what's available online, it seems to have that sprawling RPG vibe down pat.

The characters look interesting enough to want to collect, and with each one boasting their own abilities, battles should prove to be a pretty fun turn-based affair.

You can also move around and explore dungeons, forests, and towns just like the old days. Then, you can collect Memory Stones and build up your roster from a lineup of 24 characters. Even the save-the-world narrative is pretty standard—and that's not at all a bad thing.

Of course, Kemco is known for mastering the art of nostalgia with these pixel-art releases, so I think it's safe to say that if you're a fan of that style, this one likely won't disappoint.

In any case, if you're keen on experiencing that nostalgic charm, Hero Seekers is available for purchase at $9.99 or your local equivalent. And if you're still hungry for more of the good ol' days, why not have a look at our list of the best JRPGs on Android to get your fill?
