Try the top Defence of the Ancients (Dota)-based game for free!

Ever really wanted to try a new game, but just can’t come to terms with paying out the full fee in case it’ll suck?

We hear you! Which is why we’ve teamed up with S2 Games, the folks behind uber popular Dota-based game Heroes of Newerth, to offer you the chance to play their rather excellent game for free. It’s completely no strings attached too!

While most games ask for payment details when you sign up for a trial, S2 Games have instead given us 100 keys to giveaway, which will give you the opportunity to play 10 free games of Heroes of Newerth. If you enjoy it, you can purchase the game. If you don’t, just walk away. Simples.

In Heroes of Newerth, two teams of up to five players each take on the role of special Hero units. With the assistance of AI-controlled armies, each team sets out with the sole objective of destroying the other team’s base. As a match progresses, players can earn experience and gold which can be used to upgrade skills or purchase items to make their character more powerful.

Some of the unique features of HoN include:
• Dozens of playable Hero characters, over 100 items as well as regular content updates to ensure no two games of HoN will ever be the same.
• Client/Server Architecture eliminates lag, cheats and map hacking
• Quick reconnect feature allows players to jump right back into their game should they get disconnected
• In-game VOIP for fast and easy communication with teammates
• Game archives and replay support for all games played on official servers (players can rewind, slow down, fast forward, and otherwise pinpoint the exact part of a match that they wish to view)
• Powerful map editor and mod capabilities
