Frequently Asked Questions
Short answers about HeroBrowser, the free browser auto battler. Class facts on this page are generated from the live game data.
What is HeroBrowser?
HeroBrowser is a free pixel art auto battler that runs in your web browser. A god summons your soul into a hero vessel and sends it down a dungeon of one hundred floors. Combat is automatic. You make the decisions between fights: gold upgrades, gear, skills, and talents.
Is HeroBrowser free to play?
Yes. HeroBrowser is free and plays instantly in the browser, with no install and no download. One premium hero and an optional player trading market exist, but no purchase is needed to reach floor 100.
Do I need an account to play?
No. Guest mode starts immediately and saves your progress in your browser. Signing in with Google or an email account stores your save on the server, lets you continue on any device, and places you on the leaderboard.
Which classes can I play?
HeroBrowser has 6 playable classes. 5 are free (Knight, Mage, Healer, Archer, Samurai); Brakkar the Berserker is a premium class.
What happens when my hero dies?
A defeat sends you back to floor 1. Permanent upgrades and talents carry over, so every new run starts stronger. In the optional Hardcore mode a defeat also destroys your equipped gear.
How are the 100 floors structured?
Every 10th floor is a boss fight, and each act hides a guardian miniboss partway through. The biome changes roughly every ten floors; see Biomes & Floors for the full structure. Deeper acts throw more enemy waves per floor.
Does HeroBrowser have difficulty modes?
Yes, three: Normal, Hard, and Nightmare. Hard unlocks when you clear floor 100 on Normal, and Nightmare when you clear it on Hard.
Can I play HeroBrowser on my phone?
Yes. HeroBrowser is designed portrait first for phones and runs in any modern mobile or desktop browser. The same save follows you across devices when you sign in.
