by Rainier on Oct. 27, 2009 @ 3:54 a.m. PDT

Based on classic strategy game concepts pioneered in legendary PC strategy titles, Heroes of Gaia puts gamers in the shoes of one of four warring factions (Humans, Elves, Orcs or the Undead) and challenges them to build a castle, recruit mighty heroes, quest for magical items, summon up devastating armies and rampage across the land battling against players and NPCs alike in thrilling strategic combat to dominate the kingdom of Gaia.

“After two successful closed beta tests, Heroes of Gaia is shaping up nicely.” said Scott Miller, General Manager of Snail Games USA. “We’re excited to open up Heroes of Gaia to everyone for our next round of testing before launch and we’re looking forward to welcoming everyone into our great Heroes of Gaia community.”
