‘Heroes of Newerth’ is one of the oldest PC games out there. It was released in 2010 for various PC operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Linux, Macintosh operating systems, and Classic Mac OS.

If you want to learn more about ‘Heroes of Newerth,’ here’s a part of the game’s description via steam-games.org:

In true fashion to Defense of the Ancient’s gameplay, the player chooses one hero out of dozens upon dozens of heroes to play as and manage. The hero is played in a “match” alongside other players who will all be playing different heroes. It is up to the team to co-ordinate and “push” towards and ultimately destroy the opposing base. Simply which heroes a team is composed of can sway the outcome of a game as tactics are critical from even during the lobby stage of a game.

Luckily, the world of gaming is incredibly rich, and there are countless alternatives to ‘Heroes of Newerth’ out there to choose from!
