Game Features

Players travel the countryside to meet new characters, collect helpful items and gain experience.
Strategy is key during battle, but once the fighting is over, players can gather the spoils of war. Some items might be rusty and in need of polishing at a shop in town, while others might require a blacksmith to forge them
into something even more powerful.
Players will be treated to animated cut scenes on the screens of their Nintendo DS or Nintendo DSi systems.
Players can opt to use the stylus or +control pad and buttons to control movement in the game, while the touch screen is required to complete optional challenges used to power up spells or skills during battle.

Glory of Heracles will be released next year on the Nintendo DS and DSi.
