Don’t place every card or you’ll overwhelm your hero Your job is to balance those three tasks, and that starts with making sure your hero doesn’t get overwhelmed.

Placing cards lets the hero collect better, rarer, and more valuable resources. More killing means more cards and better equipment. Balancing the threeĪnd that’s how all three roles are interrelated: In the hands-off part, the hero fights and collects things, and you’re in charge of making said hero more kill-y. In between trips along the titular loop, you’ll be planning and building out your hero’s camp with structures like a farm, smithy, and herbalist’s hut. Others change the loop itself (the path the hero walks), creating cemeteries and vampire mansions that spawn extra enemies - and more enemies means more drops.

As outfitter, you manage the equipment they find by comparing equipment’s stats and equipping the one with the bigger number.

Outfitterĭuring a loop, the hero is autonomously walking around and slaying enemies that drop equipment, cards, and resources.

The odd thing about Loop Hero is that you don’t control any walking or fighting - the titular hero handles that on their own.
