The gameplay of the game is almost same as Overcooked. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1415025484 You need to protect the house using cannons. To perform a strike with it, you need to 1) take resource №1 2) move it to workshop 3) make powder 4) bring to the cannon 5) take resource №2, 6) bring it to a furnace, 7) make resource №3, 8) take it to a workshop, 9) make a shell, 10) bring it to a cannon, 11) Make a shot, 12) clean a cannon.....…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's Overcooked with cannons instead of salad. And online co-op. BUY IT!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you're looking for a really fun, light hearted, addictive co-op game to play with three more friends, No Heroes Here is the one game to try out. Its mechanics are eazy to learn/difficult to master, and the 8-bit graphics and music complete the frenetic tower-defense experience. Do not forget to setup your Discord/Skype/phone or whatever means of communication - the more advanced levels really need high coordination to complete!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →No Heroes Here is a TRUE co-operative experience that's rarely seen. Like another great example, "Overcooked", this game has perfectly captured the essence of co-operative play, and player co-ordination to achieve victory. Unlike most co-op games, trying to "be the best guy" doesn't fly here. You'll work together, running around the castle interior, creating cannonballs, powder, honey traps, and shooting enemy troops with cannons. It's a LOT of fun, and I would say a must buy for anyone who…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I picked up this game because my gf and I greatly enjoyed Overcooked, and because my online group really wanted to try it but couldn't (only 1 other friend from that group is local). We beat the game with two players about two weeks ago, and earlier tonight with four. Absolutely loved it both times. I've seen a lot of people saying that the game is impossible with two players, but as mentioned above, I can say firsthand that is provably false. (Both my groups got stuck for a while on a the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very crazy co-op game! Challenge your multi-thread skills. Grab your friends and have a lot of chaotic fun. Recommended for any age! It's a masterpiece. Also I'm very proud this is an BR game!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →No Heroes Here is an awesome co-op game! Playing with friends is hilarious and super fun. I literally can't stop playing this game!

unlabelledView post →Fun little coop game. Perfect to play with friends. The gameplay is like Overcooked, but No Heroes Here has online multiplayer, wich makes playing with friends so much easier
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →lovely Indie game! 9/10.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I talked three of my friends into getting this so we could play a nice fun multiplayer game. One of us switched his control scheme to controller, which first: did not pick up his controller, and second: disabled the keyboard. So he was literally unable to do anything else in the game. Uninstall/reinstall did not fix, deleting config files did not fix, so he refunded the game. While we were waiting on him, we noticed that WHILE IN THE LOBBY this game was taking up over 50% of our CPUs, and…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great party game in the vein of Overcooked or Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime. The amount of content here is honestly quite impressive, and it's a joy to play with a full group of 4.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not a huge fan of tower defense type games but this one changed the way how I felt, not clearly sure how you could manage to solo at higher difficulty but playing with 3 of your friends makes this really exciting. Couldn't stop playing, got so late into the night and needed to sleep for work but I just can't close the game. This is the best $1.69 CDN I ever spent besides Terraria, highly recommend to pick this up with your 3 other friends and sadly wished they had a 4 player bundle, would be…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →(**NOTE**) (I played more of this game before I got the Steam key for review) Quick and simple post.... This game thrives in co-op mode, yes! you can play it alone but it is so freaking tough to get to all points of the castle. Again...this game is a co-op game at it's heart, I really can't recommend it for only single player. But..! grab a few buddies and boy oh boy, it's on.! It gets crazy in the later levels but in a good way. It's also great to have both online and couch co-op, i've…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While it's a fairly simple game, both graphically and in terms of gameplay, No Heroes Here offers a great party experience. If you like games of coordination and teamwork, this is a worthy addition. If you like games like "Overcooked" or "Think of the Children", then you are likely to also enjoy this one. A castle dominates the center of the screen, where the players can move about, performing important defensive functions to prevent the castle from being overrun by attackers. For example,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Literally unplayable with two players only. Buy it only if you are 4 or 3. Hit a wall pretty fast under 2 hours so i'm requesting a refund. (& dev doesn't care about balancing the game so w/e)
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm really enjoying this game. My wife and I played the first world together. She went to sleep and I kept playing solo. When I realized, it was already morning and I had to go to work. It's a fun couch co-op game to play with a lot of people, like overcooked and lovers in a dangerous spacetime. The single player mode is really challenging, in a very positive way! Oh, and just a tip: Get some controllers. The keyboard is far from ideal.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I feel like there is something off about this game but I don't know exactly what... Overall, it is a coop game with a style very similar to overcooked. Unfortunately, I couldn't enjoy this game that much. The levels are repetitive and the level design is not good. I feel that there is something missing... that with more work they could've reached a good polishing level game design wise. Also... we are in 2018 and people still design characters such as the princess one... And if anyone claims…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A good idea meets poor implementation: the whole coop experienced is based on frustration and repeatability. Game mechanics are trivial, and change only once per couple of hours, In between it's just pushing right buttons for few minutes. Missed that jump or loaded a gun with a wrong ammo because of the terrible controls? Too bad, start all over. If you're looking for a coach game for players with different skill cap, choose a different title: the only good thing about that game is a cute 8-bit…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Lots of fun, had a good laughter or a dozen with my friend. However, we gave up on level 7 or something like that. Either the difficulty is set up for a full party, or we're retarded. Probably the latter. Nevertheless, I think the game requires an "easy" mode, or the difficulty should be tweaked when there are less than 4 players. Still, almost passed out a few times due to intense laughter.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've had the pleasure of beta testing this game back in March and was pleasantly surprised to see the developers improved on the already great game I had tried. It's a very chaotic and challenging co-op party game, very much akin to Overcooked. If you enjoy that game, make sure to give this a try. The development build I played before release didn't have a single-player mode. I haven't played much of it but it seems pretty well balanced. I can't wait to get three other friends together to…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of the most fun games I've played in 2017!!! This is an awesome game to play with your friends!!! 11/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Overcooked like castle defending with MP and Co-op, BUY IT!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →5/5 highly recommended for family-friendy 4-player couch (local) co-op gaming. I was able to play this with my daughters (6 & 7 y/o) and have a great time. It's a hard to find such games because as a gamer father, you want to have fun as well as your children too at young ages. Other such games we were able to enjoy were Castle Crashers, which we have played over and over, and Overcooked. I suppose one experienced gamer such as myself can carry and hope your teammates will learn. You'll need…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Excellent and pretty fun game, perfect to play with your friends.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →That is not because i´m friend of the developer and owner for this game. This review is just because the game is really nice. It´s simple, one time that u get the way to kill, and fun. The history is also very fun... Tnks Tashiro for this awesome game
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →No Heroes Here is an AWESOME co-op and challenging game. Specially for couch play with your friends. This is really a fun game, just buy it and have tons of fun with it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →6.5/10 No Heroes Here might best be described as a 2D tower defense game. You have a stronghold that you must defend from the approaching hordes. Your only defenses are your cannons, and each map/stronghold has different cannon placement. However, you can load your cannons with more than just cannonballs - there are honey shots that slow enemies down, water shots that can freeze enemies in the colder maps, and chickens that are cooked when shot, making a delicious dinner that enemies cannot…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a great addition for those looking for a couch co-op game. Looking through the updates, I unfortunately got it after the re-balancing for two players - this game is fairly easy once you get into it. This game puts team coordination to a good test much like how Overcooked does, and as others have mentioned. The different mechanics introduced as you progress through the different areas are intriguing and well-designed. The difficulty scales at a good pace. However, that said, with two…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is the best local-coop game I've played in a long time. Coop games usually don't require this much colaboration and coordination in order to win each round, and most levels are insane fast. Gathering 4 people to play this is garanteed fun.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →wow its a very fun game to play with friends! A fusion of Overcooked, Lovers in a dangerous space time with castles and humor from Monty Phyton! Gameplay 10/10! Music: 9/10! Fun: 10/10! if you like party games you really need to buy this!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very nice and fluid movements and gameplay, if you like to play some fast paced casual defense with your friends, this is the game! The only thing I wish is be able to skip the start story because it was too long. Recomended!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very good game, awesome logo :D. Super fun couch coop game, like overcooked but medieval.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Jogo é muito bom, tem uma boa mecânica mas o maior problema é que ele é MUITO fácil, fica maçante demais pra zerar e conseguir liberar o nightmare mode OBS: vai tomar no c* prefeitura de são paulo
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Excellent coop game!! A bit difficult as you progress nonetheless fun! Recommended.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →No Heroes Here is that perfect option to gather friends in a light and fun gameplay with the potential to generate good laughs. The beautiful and smooth pixel art gives the comic and fun tone of this tower defense very well structured, fluid, and with very interesting stages. The ideal here is to get more people for the team, especially if you play in 4 players, as the stages go by, this vertical tower defense becomes chaotic, and holding out alone is no longer possible. Divide the tasks, leave…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I gave "No Heroes Here" a try after searching for a coop game that me and my friends could play remotely and also locally. Game mechanics are simple but fun - in a nutshell, time is spent crafting ammunition, firing and reloading cannons on wave after wave of enemies. I found the early levels to be quite easy (I played this game with 3 friends), but as the game progresses and some new mechanics are introduced, each level finished gives you a true sense of accomplishment and even relief. You…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Awesome game! Play with your friends! It's really fun! It's a coop game that reminds the feeling of the overcooked I love the soundtrack and the art style!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is funny but I feel so so so tired when i playing with one frind only /_\ but i think it is so much fun when playing with 3fds.:D
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →At 90% off, game is a steal. It's a great chaotic co-op game to play with friends. You can play alone, but it's not nearly as fun. Failing missions, coming up with strategies to tackle them, it's a blast. Great game, lots of fun, lots of yelling into the mic.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this game is incredible, it's really relaxing, even so has a good dose of challenge and coop, that sure will keep you entertained
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nice game to play with 3 other friends. I think that the mp connectivity should be a bit more intuitive. Also the mouse is not integrated in menu. Other than that the game is very fun and silly.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great Game to play with friends and have fun. Found just 1 bug, that was the infinity cleaning cannon bug.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pretty good to play with friends obviously, don't recommend playing alone.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game with friends / family! Better if you can talk to them. 8/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Awesome fun! A great co-op party game! Simple easy to understand mechanics, very fun boss battles and a great dificculty curve. Can't recommend it enough.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great concentrated co-op gameplay focused on communication and teamwork This game was a perfect fit for my game night crew - it's surprising how difficult it is to find games just like this one. A great fit for online group play or couch party co-op. I meet weekly with a group of 3-4 players and we find games to play for just a few hours in that time. We're all parents, we have limited time and short play sessions, usually just about 2 hours. This game was perfect for us. It would also work…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fantastic local co-op & Couch gaming. Play with my 30yr old friends as well as kids ages 5-14yrs old also. Good difficulty gradient throughout. Challenging for beginners and seasoned gamers alike. Highly Recommend
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Played for almost 140 minutes or so in one sitting with my little sister before I made us stop for a break. Easy to pick up game, great for local multiplayer and full of fun action. Communication is key to this game! If you like overcooked, this game is a must buy I think!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A very fun an inexpensive game to play with your friends and family. I played both online and offline and had a blast. Some mechanics are not obvious, so you need to experiment and learn. I've run into a problem that i have only 1 controller and wanted to play with my sister and my brother in law. The workaround was simulatin a virutal keyboard, this way two could play on one keyboard and the other on the controller.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fast and frantic fun, I had a good laugh playing it. Nice story, gameplay is well thought and challenging. Pretty tough to play alone, so I recommend playing with friends, unless you like a good challenge.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →https://youtu.be/bPiZ7cnXp_o Possibly a lot more with four players but without that the single player experience is not much to write home about.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While it be the Turkey Day, it is also a Lurkit Thursday, and we have: No Heroes Here 2! Once again, thank you everyone as well as Lurkit for giving me the opportunity to stream this game! www.twitch.tv/jakyl9

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →cool game but later game need more people then 2
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Playing this with only 2 people makes things real intense at times
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you ever need a reason to yell at your friends, this is the game for you.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →- Either Controllers (GamePads) or a Keyboard? No way to play with two controllers and a keyboard? - No indication in the menu what key does what? - Z as a way to control sliders in the menu? - Music set to MAX at initial launch of the game? - No skip-able "cut-scenes"? NO BUY RECOMMENDATION!!! (fix recommendation!)
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Really fun, just make sure to get it during the sale because it becomes 90% off
