In the quiet corner of an old house, atop a desk in a secluded alley, a tiny yet epic battle is about to unfold on a blank scroll.
In ShapeHero Factory, a game that blends factory-building, roguelike elements, and tower defense, the Great Calamity sealed within the Book of Magic is awakening, and it’s up to you to stop it. To do so, you’ll need to harness the power of your adorable Minions to forge tiny heroes directly from the scroll’s magic.
This is a wave-based tower defense challenge where your goal is to build and upgrade a factory to mass-produce heroes and prevent your gates from being destroyed. You can’t control your heroes directly—your only role is to construct your factory. Each wave of enemies will grow stronger, so you’ll need to continually adapt and strengthen your defenses with artifacts (facilities) earned from rewards.
To create your heroes, you’ll combine basic shapes found on the scroll. Circles and triangles form soldiers, while circles and squares create sprites. By adding squares to soldiers, you can give them shields, and combining soldiers may result in even more powerful heroes.
The Great Calamity’s forces, determined to keep you from reaching its lair within the Book of Magic, will relentlessly try to tear down your gates. Each of the Calamity’s servants has unique attack patterns, so you’ll need to strategically build the right heroes for the job. Survive wave after wave and go deeper into the Book of Magic to face the Calamity itself.
