    Had a lot of fun playing Zheros, a nice job indeed from Rimlight Studios. Particularly appreciated Mike and Dorian characters. For beat 'em ups lovers, a not to be missed title

    For a more exciting game, try playing Scrabble. Alone. [March 2016, p.87]

    It doesn’t do enough to make itself stand out among a crowd of side-scrolling beat ’em ups, playing like a multitude of games that have come before it. I can’t emphasise enough that I did enjoy playing ZHEROS, but I did find my attention being drawn to other games waiting to be started that lay on my shelf, as I think this is the main problem ZHEROS has, in that it has released at a time when there are literally stacks of games vying for our hard-earned cash.

    ZHEROS is fun to play for a while. Its combo system is entertaining to use, and its graphics look good. However, flaws in its design include frustrating difficulty spikes, some punishing later levels, and occasionally awkward controls, which results in a game that falls short of its potential.
