Step Into Hell’s Hottest Role
As the newest overseer of hell, your job is to keep the damned in line and the gates secure. Each escape attempt by these relentless souls tests your strategy, reflexes, and cunning. With every wave, you’ll unlock powerful upgrades, forge strategic decks, and turn hell’s tools against the escapees.
A Unique Twist on Tower Defense and Bullet Heaven
What makes Heretic’s Fork so engaging is its fresh take on tower defense, blending in roguelike and bullet heaven mechanics to create a constantly evolving gameplay loop. At the start, you choose a character (or “employee”) with unique abilities, like Intern Ruby, who brings no bonuses, or Gilbo Gibbins, who adds a luck-based gambling mechanic for high-risk, high-reward plays. As waves of enemies attack, players place automated defenses to handle the mobs while strategically deploying cards to add traps, minions, and abilities to reinforce Hell’s defenses.
Highlights for Console Slayers:
Intense Tower Defense gameplay: Experience Heretic's Fork on the big screen, bringing its signature Bullet Heaven and tower defense chaos to life.
Smooth, optimized controls: Designed for seamless play on consoles, making your descent into hell feel even more immersive.
Immersive visuals: Enhanced graphics showcase the detailed, dark aesthetic, perfect for the console experience.
Since its PC debut, Heretic’s Fork has earned a devoted following for its unique blend of strategy and roguelike mechanics, praised as “an addictive dive into hell’s depths.” With today’s console release, even more players can answer the call: Will you survive the fires or join the ranks of the lost?
