Take on Hordes of Enemy Classmates in School Hero, a New Beat 'Em Up

School Hero, a new Android beat 'em up from indie developer Gkoros Polychronis, bursts onto the scene with vibrant, comic-book-inspired visuals. But beyond the eye-catching art lies a fun, engaging game experience.

What is School Hero?

Play as "Hero"—yes, that's his name—a schoolboy with surprising fighting skills and a noble heart. The classic "save the girl" plotline finds you, the new kid in school, battling a shadowy organization that's kidnapped your girlfriend. As you progress through punches, kicks, and dramatic cutscenes, you'll uncover dark secrets hidden within the school's walls.

Gameplay is solid beat 'em up fare. Grab enemies, throw them, and utilize environmental weapons for maximum impact. Boss battles require learning attack patterns and finding openings, delivering a satisfyingly classic beat 'em up challenge. The team captain boss fight is a particular standout.

School Hero also offers fun extras. Unlock helpful pets to aid in battle, and utilize the in-game shop to purchase power-ups, XP boosts, and health packs for those crucial comebacks.

Different Game Modes

Choose your adventure: a story mode for narrative immersion, an arcade mode for pure, nostalgic chaos, or a survival mode to test your mettle and see how long you can last.

School Hero blends charming pixel art with anime-style cutscenes and colorful backgrounds. Enjoy full controller support via Bluetooth and USB. Find it now on the Google Play Store.
