Welcome to Hero6! An original and exciting game set in the myth-shrouded town of Albion. Explore the mysteries enveloping this town and stride forth on your very first adventure. Become a hero like none other in the past or the future!
The team of Hero6 was formed in 1999. In the beginning, the game was nothing more than a spinoff of another universe. However through time and labor, the entire game evolved into a standalone world.
With members from countries all across the world, representing a wide variety of ages and professions, the Hero6 team are working hard to craft a game that will embody the best features of the adventure/RPG genre. The wait may be long, but, in the end, it will be well worth it! For in the town of Albion, mystery and adventure awaits. . .
I am a long time fan of the series. Does anyone know any of the producers of Hero 6 personally, or at the least, know how to get in touch with any of them? We need to get some official statements on the status of the game production. Does anyone have any ideas on how we can publicize this and get the passion for these games flowing again? Today's games just don't seem to have the same care and passion put into them as the QFG series. Or maybe I'm just getting old...
