About the game
Glow up Hero: a card roguelike where beauty = power. Recruit real-world heroes, field 4. Each: 3 standard + 2 ultimate cards (once per battle). 3 energy/turn, unused cards discarded. Glow Up transforms & upgrades all cards. Real origins. Beauty is justice? No—beauty is power.
Original Steam description
Glow up Hero is a multi-hero deckbuilding roguelike.
Build a shared deck, play Ultimate cards, complete Beautify missions — and watch history’s legends transform.
Up to 4 Heroes on the Field
One shared deck for the whole party. Assign a caster when you play a card, weave in basic attacks freely — you’re commanding a squad, not a lone climber.

Beautify Is the Run-Long Payoff
Finish a hero’s Beautify mission to swap their look, power up their cards, clear debuffs, and fully heal.<br>
Beautify lasts for the rest of the run — you’re building a deck and a glamorous frontline.
Classic Roguelike Route
Fights, events, shops, elites, bosses. Gear up with equipment, heirlooms, and blessings. Die and restart — every party combo plays differently.
Combat Rhythm
3 energy per turn; draw scales with how many heroes you have.
Standard cards keep the engine running. Ultimates are once-per-fight finishers — read enemy intents and pick your moment.
Heroes From History & Myth
Sun Wukong, Xiang Yu, Guan Yu, Thor, Diaochan, Athena, Zhuge Liang… 24 heroes, each with a clear cultural signature.
Party synergy sets the pace; after Beautify, even a familiar face feels brand new.
If glamorous transforms and squad-based card play sound like your thing — wishlist now and we’ll ping you at launch.
