Is the tower game shown in the 'Hero Wars' ad a real game?

Arqade Asked by ShrekMen on April 4, 2021

I was playing a game on my phone, and an advertisement appears about the game ‘Hero Wars’, but Hero Wars does not play anything like what is shown in the ad.

The advertisement shows a hero being placed on various levels of a tower to defeat enemies and level up:

Hero in tower Hero defeating enemy

New Tower with bigger enemies

Does the gameplay shown in the advertisement exist as an actual game?

Here’s the full ad on Facebook: https://fb.watch/3Sb-ooOiEY/

This advertisement is misleading and does not show actual gameplay. Here is a video showing the differences.

Mobile game advertisements are often misleading, but this is an actual game, even if the shown gameplay is fake.

Really, there's a general rule to go by: when you see a mobile game ad, there are very good chances what is shown is not gameplay, or not even related to the game. Some of these mobile games (Homescapes) are even being sued for misleading advertising.

So yeah, except for the characters in the ad, nothing of what is shown exists in the 'Hero Wars' game.

Does the gameplay shown in the advertisement exist as an actual game?

I would expect no. The gameplay shown is a very easy puzzle, and they are banking on the dumb (but I guess working) trend in mobile advertising where the puzzle is basic, kindergarten math (usually shared with some sort of challenge like "98% OF THE POPULATION CAN'T DO THIS, CAN YOU?") Like the puzzle shown in this ad. Just pick your character, and then go and check every enemy. Is his level HIGHER? OR LOWER? If lower put against.

You might find a puzzle that looks like this in a puzzle compilation game, but a game that has this basic mechanic as it's only feature? Not that I know of.
