“The attention to detail is staggering ... Heroine’s Quest is a glorious adventure-RPG hybrid.” RockPaperShotgun “As perfect a tribute to Sierra's classic Quest for Glory series as you could hope for.” Kotaku “Arguably surpassing the series that Lori Ann and Corey Cole created with an intricate Nordic setting and deeper roleplaying mechanics.” Hardcore Gaming 101 You can use this widget-maker to generate a bit of HTML that can be embedded in your website to easily allow customers to purchase this game onfrom store.steampowered.com
