Heroes is similar to the "tron" and "nibbles" games of yore, but includes many graphical improvements and new game features. in it, you must maneuver a small vehicle around a world and collect powerups while avoiding obstacles, your opponents' trails, and even your own trail.

several styles of play are available, including "get-all-the-bonuses", deathmatch, and "squish-the-pedestrians". all game styles can be played in both single-player and two-player (split-screen) modes.

you should install the heroes-sound-effects package if you want sound effects, and the heroes-sound-tracks package if you want background music in the game.

this version is linked against the ggi libraries. see heroes-sdl for a heroes version that is linked against the sdl libraries.
