Tips & Tricks (2025 Guide)

A TopHeroes fan guide to building your kingdom and conquering the world!

Adventure Mode Tips

Adventure Mode is a core part of the game when you first start. Adventure mode is where you advance through different maps and levels, fighting bosses, and gathering resources. This is also a really great way to get weapons, hero recruitment shards, diamonds etc.

Progression

To unlock a new world or map, you typically need to complete the previous one 100%. This involves finding all chests and completing all challenges on the map. You can track your progress via an icon at the bottom-left of the screen.

Auto-Collection & Penalties

A useful feature is that any materials or weapons left on the ground are automatically collected when you win a level. However, be aware that if you quit a level manually or lose and retry, you will forfeit any materials you've collected in that attempt. The only way to keep your materials is to win.

Boss Strategy

It is often a good strategy to save your special abilities or "special meter" for the final blow on a boss, as this can sometimes yield extra rewards.

Season-Specific Adventure Mode Details

Season 1

Season 1 features maps such as the Hellforge Map and the Pixie Ruins Map. Some of the difficult bosses to defeat in this season include the Spectral Dragon, Pyromancer, and Dune Devourer. Season 1 will remain available even after Season 2 has started.

Season 2

Season 2 introduces the Ember of the Frozen Flame shop. When progressing, prioritize acquiring decorations from this shop, as they provide increases to march size, soldier HP, and soldier attack. A major focus of Season 2 is on using heroes from the same faction, so build your teams accordingly.
