Loop Hero's Mobile Success: Over One Million Downloads!

Four Quarters' innovative time-bending RPG, Loop Hero, has achieved a remarkable milestone: over one million mobile downloads! This achievement comes just two months after its mobile launch, following its initial 2021 debut on Steam. Clearly, mobile gamers have a voracious appetite for Loop Hero's unique gameplay.

Loop Hero plunges players into a roguelike adventure where a malevolent lich has fractured time. Players guide their hero through repeated expeditions, upgrading their abilities and acquiring new equipment to ultimately confront the lich and restore order.
