What is ShapeHero Factory?

This 2.5D, single-player factory-building roguelite takes place in a fantasy kingdom where enemy waves threaten a portal. You place shapes on conveyor belts to make heroes that fight on their own, then upgrade your factory and try different Masters across runs.

For you if...

+you like planning automated production under enemy pressure
+you enjoy experimenting with different hero and Master combinations
+you want cute visuals alongside strategic defense

Not for you if...

−you want direct control of fighters during combat
−you prefer a factory that persists between runs
−you dislike relying on random upgrades at higher difficulties

What players say

89% of 1,015 reviews are positive
