No, this is not Sparta and this not cliché-ish naked men with painted abs. This is “Penalty of Heroes”, where each of the four characters has his/her very own background and motive in their quest for glory.

But don’t worry old school lovers. We’re not gonna let you down. This IS a hack ´n slash game and we’re gonna keep it that way. But if you wanna find out what PoH really is about, I suggest you pay attention to the story. But once again, don’t panic. You will still get the same maximum amusement if you don’t. The choice is yours : )

So, having that said I believe I can move on and explain the title of my post. First of all, I LOVE 300, so don’t get me wrong about the whole deal with clichés etc. I mentioned Sparta because we have a lot of remade quotes from modern day media. Hopefully you’ll recognize and be recognized as you and your friends make progress in the game. But where it’s bright, you will also find darkness. The game touches some issues that I hope you will enjoy just as much as the fun parts. It’s the best of both worlds. We have black, white, AND gray. Totally ran out of metallic green though… Enjoy.
