General

Heroes of Bestia combines the intensity of RTS gameplay with classic AD&D rules. It offers players an imposing and visually stunning game world to explore, various heroes and soldiers to recruit, and characters that hail from one of the three mysterious races that inhabit the land. The game is designed around cooperation and conflict among these 3 races, as they battle for resources, respect, and supremacy.

Heroes of Bestia takes browser based gaming to the next level by smashing the typical notions that players hold of them. There is no static environment with simple images and chunky, slow-moving scenery, instead players are immersed in a realistic world where they can view and control their heroes and armies, and literally venture to new lands.

With RTS, RPG and SIM elements all included in the game, there are many important things to consider when building your kingdom. One of the most crucial is training a hero that actually lives up to the title. Distributing stat points earned from experience in battle, learning skills and magic, and forging armor worthy of your champion will all have an effect on how heroic your hero becomes.

Storyline

A dark era of turbulence and desperation ended in Bestia after the death of the Three Gods and the Devil King. No longer pawns at the mercy of such beings, the inhabitants of this world finally dare to dream and hope for a better future, or at least one where they have a chance to decide who will wield the ultimate power. Legions of creatures have begun struggling over the continent’s remaining materials to build their own kingdoms. Elves seek to regain their former glory. Humans continue to look toward the frontiers and new territories. Cavemen simply want to return to their underground haven and forget all about the destruction wrought on the surface world.

Races

Human

The humans are a race that have an excess of cunning and wisdom. They are not afraid of danger or hard labor, and in certain situations even seem to thrive on adversity. They feature powerful weapons and advanced technology. They have formed the Golden Eagle army and Knight army. Some of the humans also utilize their intellect for studying magic. However, the environment in their realm has been deteriorating as their desire for more and their endless development reaches the breaking point. They have even started fighting each other over the limited remaining resources.

Elves

These secretive creatures dwell in the forests. They love life, nature, and freedom. They are the symbol of joy and life. Some of them have evolved into Silva Centaurs, Pegasus, Unicorns, Dwarves and more. They are all determined to protect their beloved forests from any danger.

Cavemen

They live underground among dank moisture and complete darkness. These creatures have formed a powerful race to protect themselves and expand their territory. To adjust to their special environment, they have evolved a lot, and growing in power. The cave systems they have designed extend for miles without coming to the surface once.
