Hero Wars: Alliance combines hero collection, team-building, and automated battles with long-term progression and daily activities.

But what makes idle RPGs like Hero Wars so popular? And who is the game on Lootday best suited for?

What is Hero Wars: Alliance?

Hero Wars: Alliance is a mobile RPG developed by Nexters in which players build a team of heroes and steadily grow stronger over time.

Each hero has unique abilities, roles, and synergies. As players progress, they unlock new characters, upgrade their equipment, and optimize their teams for different game modes.

The game includes:

  • a story-driven campaign
  • PvP arenas
  • guilds and cooperative activities
  • events
  • and various PvE challenges

The focus is less on fast reactions and more on creating effective team compositions and long-term progression.

Why idle RPGs captivate millions of players

The success of Hero Wars highlights why idle RPGs have remained one of the most popular mobile gaming genres for years.

They combine simple gameplay mechanics with long-term goals and regular rewards.

Many players especially enjoy:

  • short daily sessions
  • steady progression
  • collecting new heroes
  • optimizing team compositions
  • and participating in regular events

This creates a balance between relaxed gameplay and long-term motivation.

Short sessions with long-term progression

Hero Wars fits easily into everyday life.

Many activities can be completed within just a few minutes. At the same time, the game offers enough progression systems to keep players engaged for weeks or even months.

Some of the most important progression elements include:

  • team level
  • hero levels
  • equipment
  • artifacts
  • and building synergies between different heroes

This combination of short sessions and long-term progression is one of the main reasons why Hero Wars appeals to so many players.

Who is Hero Wars for?

Hero Wars is best suited for players who:

  • enjoy fantasy settings
  • like collecting heroes
  • enjoy team-building mechanics
  • prefer shorter gaming sessions
  • and like making steady progress over time

Players who find strategy games like Rise of Kingdoms or Call of Dragons too time-consuming may appreciate Hero Wars as a more accessible alternative.

Why is the Lootday offer based on team levels?

A quick look at the current milestones explains why Hero Wars is a classic progression-based offer.

Most objectives revolve around reaching specific team levels.

Some of the current milestones include:

  • reaching Team Level 20
  • reaching Team Level 50
  • reaching Team Level 80
  • reaching Team Level 100
  • reaching Team Level 120

There are also additional objectives such as:

  • opening the app for 40 consecutive days
  • optional in-app purchases
  • and platform-specific bonus milestones

This allows players to decide how deeply they want to engage with the game.

While some users may only aim for the early team levels to try the game, others may choose to develop their account over the long term.

Android and iOS: Small differences between offers

The overall structure of the offer is very similar on both Android and iOS.

On both platforms, team levels and long-term progression remain the main focus.

However, individual milestones and rewards may vary slightly depending on your device. Android users, for example, have access to additional purchase milestones, while reward amounts for certain objectives may differ between platforms.

That’s why it’s always worth reviewing the specific offer requirements before getting started.

Higher rewards also require more time

As with other progression-based games, the same principle applies to Hero Wars: the higher the potential rewards, the more important time investment and consistent activity become.

Later team levels require significantly more experience points and daily logins than the early milestones.

That’s why players do not need to complete every objective for the offer to feel worthwhile.

Many users focus on the early team levels first and then decide whether they want to continue progressing over the long term.

Pay attention to tracking and offer requirements

If you decide to try Hero Wars through Lootday, there are a few important things to keep in mind:

  • Always launch the offer directly through the Lootday link.
  • Allow in-game tracking permissions.
  • Avoid interrupting downloads.
  • Carefully review the offer requirements before starting.

As with most Lootday offers, this offer currently only works for completely new accounts or new players of the game.

If something does not track correctly, if you have questions about an offer, or if you want to provide feedback about the platform, you can always contact the Lootday team through the feedback bubble on Lootday or by emailing support@lootday.com.

Honest community feedback helps us continuously improve Lootday and make future offers even better.
