Description
A hero, a princess, a hoard of treasure, and a castle full of deadly traps. The classic fairy tale is turned on its head, and only your brain can write a happy ending. Welcome to Hero Rescue, the original and definitive pin-pulling puzzle game that started a phenomenon! You are a valiant knight faced with a series of complex, life-or-death scenarios. Your mission is to analyze the trap, predict the consequences, and pull the correct pins in the perfect sequence. One wrong move sends molten lava onto your hero or unleashes a horde of goblins. Get it right, and you'll cleverly dispatch your enemies, claim the treasure, and save the princess. When you play Hero Rescue and earn coin for your heroic deeds, you can unlock new hero skins and take on even more challenging castles.
The Dragon's Spire Expansion is Unleashed!
Just when you thought you'd mastered the dungeon, a new threat takes to the skies! Our largest content expansion yet, "The Dragon's Spire," adds a massive new castle with 50 brand-new, vertically-themed puzzles. You'll have to contend with a fire-breathing dragon at the top of the tower, pulling pins to douse it with water or drop heavy objects on its head. This update introduces the 'ice pin' mechanic, which freezes liquids solid, allowing you to create temporary platforms and solve puzzles in ways you never thought possible.

The Royal Decree: Your Questions Answered
Is this game really free to play?
Yes, absolutely. A hero's quest for glory should be open to all. It's a core belief we hold dear, and you can learn more about our mission at Instaplay Zone to provide epic, free entertainment. Every puzzle and hero skin is available through gameplay.
How can I earn coins faster?
By being a true hero! You earn coins for defeating goblins and rescuing the princess, but the biggest rewards come from successfully acquiring the treasure. Many levels have secret diamond caches hidden behind extra puzzle steps. Solving these optional challenges will grant you a massive coin bonus. Perfecting levels is the key to a full treasury.
What's the best strategy for the really tough castles?
Think about the order of operations. Often, you need to use one hazard to neutralize another. For example, you might need to pull a pin to drop water onto lava, turning it into harmless rock *before* you create a path for your hero. This kind of sequential logic is the heart of the game, a trait it shares with many of the most popular cool games across the web.
Is this game called Hero Rescue because you rescue a hero?
Both! Not only are you playing *as* the hero to rescue the princess, but the very act of solving the puzzle is a "Hero Rescue" in itself. You are constantly pulling pins to save your own hero from goblins, lava, spikes, and all sorts of other deadly traps. You are the hero, and you are performing the rescue—it's the perfect name!
Do I need to download an app to be a hero?
Not on our watch. This version of Hero Rescue is built with streamlined HTML5 technology, meaning it runs instantly and perfectly in your web browser. No installs, no updates—just click to start your adventure on any modern PC or laptop.
I've saved the princess and gotten all the treasure. Is my quest over?
A true hero's adventure never truly ends! If you've conquered every castle and slain every goblin, know that we have an entire kingdom of other challenges for you to overcome. Your next legendary journey begins at the Instaplay Zone homepage, our portal to hundreds of other world-class games.
