Not the Hero

Witness the journey of a hero through the eyes of the ordinary folk and other characters in Not the Hero! Are you up for this adventure and ready to influence the journey with your answers?

In this fun fantasy adventure, you are not controlling the hero but witnessing his journey in the realm through the eyes of the other characters. In one chapter, you'll be a villager, and in another, you will be a shopkeeper. But that doesn't mean you have no influence! You get to talk to the hero and pick answers during your dialogue. You can move around with the WASD keys and use the SPACEBAR to talk to others. As you play, the time advances and so do the events. You'll get to experience how otherworldly a hero's action when compared to the regular folk, such as him selling animal pelts, checking the chests in the town square, and walking around with an intimidating aura donning an armor. But the adventure is not limited to the town square! You get to witness the hero's deeds as the princess in distress, an evil lord, and more! There are various answers you can pick during a dialogue and it shapes the adventure! Can you find the hidden ending?
