About Class of Heroes: Anniversary Edition
Class of Heroes: Anniversary Edition revives the classic JRPG dungeon‑crawling experience with a remastered look. You enroll as a first‑year student at Particus Academy, balancing study and combat training while assembling a cohort of classmates.
The game emphasizes strategic preparation: choose each student’s name, gender, class, alignment and course, allocate capability points, and manage class‑alignment affinities. With over 75 procedurally varied dungeons, a flexible alchemy system, and a year‑book map, the adventure promises endless tactical depth and replayability.
01 / THE GUIDE
Student Creation and Customisation
At the start you select a name, gender, class, alignment and course for every student, shaping their role in the party. Points can be assigned to various capabilities, defining strengths for front‑line or rear‑guard positions.
Affinity between students matters; matching class‑alignment pairings grants team boosts. Careful planning of these relationships helps the group survive tougher encounters.
- Experiment with different class‑alignment combos to discover hidden synergy bonuses.
- Balance front‑line strength with rear‑guard support to handle varied enemy types.
02 / THE GUIDE
Dungeon Exploration
More than 75 dungeons generate anew each entry, offering diverse terrains and building layouts. Strong, weak, and hidden monsters appear around every turn, requiring tactical decisions to fight or flee.
A special year‑book records explored maps, letting you track progress and avoid getting lost in the labyrinthine corridors.
- Use the year‑book map to note safe routes before tackling deeper sections.
- Observe monster types early to decide whether to engage or retreat.
03 / THE GUIDE
Loot Management and Alchemy
Items range from broken swords to shiny coins, each sortable as treasure or trash. You can sell loot for coin or keep it for future use. The alchemy system lets you transform items or customise weapon attributes using numerous recipes.
Power stones and war hammers illustrate the breadth of possible creations, encouraging experimentation with item combinations.
- Save rare materials for alchemy recipes that enhance weapon stats.
- Sell common trash items early to build a coin reserve for later purchases.
04 / THE GUIDE
Combat Strategy and Class Affinities
Combat hinges on matching your team’s attacks to monster weaknesses. Class‑alignment affinities provide extra boosts when correctly aligned, while mismatched pairings can leave you vulnerable.
Knowing when to fight and when to flee is crucial; the game rewards strategic retreats as much as victorious battles.
- Review monster weaknesses before committing to a fight.
- Consider retreating when your party’s affinity bonuses are low.
05 / THE GUIDE
Platform and Controller Support
Class of Heroes runs on Windows with full controller support, including DualShock and DualSense compatibility. Steam Cloud integration allows your progress to be saved online, and Family Sharing lets multiple accounts access the game on the same device.
The single‑player focus means the experience is designed for solo play without requiring additional players.
- Enable Steam Cloud to keep your save data safe across installations.
- Test both DualShock and DualSense controllers to find your preferred layout.
