If you are currently in search for a moderately challenging, yet thrilling puzzle adventure you can play even with the littlest free time in your hands, then be sure to give Hero Rescue a try! Hero Rescue is a simple dungeon puzzle game where each level is physically divided into portions with pins that you can pull with a swipe off its tips. The goal typically involves killing enemies, obtaining treasure, and saving the princess. As simple as that may sound, the puzzles employ a variety of objects and o...

Puzzle games, regardless of type and platform, often project a false sense of urgency that somehow lulls players into rushing into any levels completion. While some puzzle games do exhibit countdown timers to add some pressure, there are fortunately no such mechanics in Hero Rescue. Beyond the absence of an actual timer on any game mode in Hero Rescue, the only other thing you need to control is that itch to pull pins off of the level without taking a good look at the entire puzzle. As there is no need to hurry solving each puzzle, be sure to take time picturing out the effect of each pin or object you interact with. It should likewise go without saying as well, that you need to imagine the overall impact of every object you adjust with the level’s goal in mind. As easy as that sounds, one of the tricky challenges that Hero Rescue offers can come from giving you a series of relatively easy puzzles to solve, and once you grow complacent, will surprise you with a more comple...

As a general rule, the puzzles in Hero Rescue all revolve around knowing the proper sequence of which objects to interact with first, packed with the usual swipes that require a bit of timing and precision. While some puzzles can be a dead giveaway as far as complexity is concerned, some are laced with an abundant supply of interactive objects, including pins you can pull. As confusing as it can be in select cases, what you should always set in mind are basically two things: which objects must be interacted with, and in what sequence should you interact with them. In relation to our first tip, having an end in mind naturally requires spending a little time to check every possible outcome out. In contrast with pulling a pin here and slicing a rope there to see what happens next, having a sequential turn of events play out in your mind before you do anything should be the habit to make. This would mean that as far as preparations go, you should be able to imagine every step ...

Yet another tricky mechanic lumped into several levels within Hero Rescue comes with the overabundance of objects you can interact with while there are numerous instances where you will have to leave some of them alone. Having more pins and objects are actually part of what makes some puzzle confusing and when triggered, may either have no effect at all or will cause more trouble. Again, this should go with the idea that you should focus on what the goal is per level and work backwards to how you can get there. With some more time to analyze each puzzle and carefully mapping out the sequence of actions to make, you will come to discover just how much simpler most puzzles are given that some objects do not even have to be bothered.

Sometimes, mistakes are bound to happen even if you have been very careful and very patient when it comes to planning ahead before making your move. It may be due to a misconception about how certain objects will move, how some enemies will react, or a combination of both. In any case, having the hero or princess killed, in any way, leads to a loss of a precious life, which takes a full 30 minutes to regenerate. As a counter-measure, and just to be on the safe side, always be ready to tap on the reset button at the upper right corner of the screen. Although at times, this will result in playing a 5-second video ad, it beats losing a heart or worse, running out of lives and having to wait for 30 minutes for another attempt, or watching a 30-second ad. You will come to discover that even as you pay attention to how things roll on screen, you will often come in late to call for a reset. In time, though, you are bound to get used to it. In the event that you reset on an otherw...

It is hard to ignore that Hero Rescue seems very forgiving when it comes to raising difficulty as you progress from one level to the next one. At times, you may find a continuously rising level of challenge as you move higher in the stages, but then suddenly be on a level where all it takes is a 5-second glance and a swipe to finish it. This is largely because things ease down a lot when new objects or mechanics are introduced to you in the game. Whenever you see something new as you play on each level, expect that level to be an introductory level that only aims to showcase that object. As such, the challenge in that level is not the puzzle itself but rather, the concept around the new object that you need to know and remember moving forward. With 200 levels currently being available in the main game mode and a promise of an update every week, you can expect upcoming challenges to add more difficulty as some, or all, of the objects you have encountered become lumped toget...

The Tower Mode in Hero Rescue is a unique game mode in the sense that it typically offers more ways than one to solve each puzzle. In this mode, blocks that are stacked together can be removed by clicking on each one of them and in doing so, will lead to various effects that can help you take home the treasure you so highly covet. In general. Tower Mode has a deeper application of physics compared to the main game and Treasure Mode especially in times where higher stacks of blocks have various ways to react based on which one you choose to remove first. While going about it strategically and applying every tip in the book can go a long way, frantically tapping on one block after another works as well, sometimes even better. As you are most likely used to triggering effects by swiping or touching an object in the game one at a time, you may not be immediately exposed to this trick when you play this game mode. Surprisingly enough, the speed at which the blocks vanish based ...
