Stick Hero RPG is a side-scrolling action RPG where you pick a species, choose a combat class, and fight through waves of monsters and dungeon bosses while leveling up and upgrading your equipment. The build system — three species and four classes that each change your stats and playstyle — gives the game more strategic depth than most browser stickman games.

Before your first fight, you select a species (Human, Orc, or Elf) and a class (Gunner, Archer, Wizard, or Thief), and this combination shapes everything from your attack speed and damage output to how quickly your character levels up.

The gameplay itself is a side-scrolling dungeon crawler — move through fields and caverns, clear waves of zombies, desert creatures, and dungeon mobs, then face bosses that demand more than raw damage to defeat. What makes players return is the shared inventory system.

Coins, items, and bags carry over between characters, which means starting a new build does not reset your economic progress. This encourages experimentation with different species-class combinations without the usual RPG penalty of losing everything on a reroll.
