Welcome to Vice Town: Rooftops, Alleys and Trouble

Vice Town gives City Hero its unique character. It is a bustling metropolis where skyscrapers, noisy streets, and narrow alleys coexist, and every level of the city is your playground. Look up for aerial routes perfect for swinging; look down for alleys where thugs lie in wait. Hidden corners reward players who take the time to explore rather than rushing from one mission to the next. The city is in trouble, and you are the one expected to set things right.

Key Features

• A city made for roaming: Vice Town runs from high rooftops down to back alleys, with out-of-the-way corners that reward curious players.
• Skyline travelling: Your rope lets you cross from tower to tower quickly, so you rarely need to stay at street level.
• Hands-on combat: Blend raw strength, weapons, and quick movement to take on enemies your own way. 
• Gangster missions: Take on jobs around town, each with a dangerous target to deal with. 
• Zombie Arena: Fight off wave after wave of zombies. Last long enough and you'll earn special rewards. 
• Robot boss: Make it through the harder fights, and you'll face a big robot. 
• Outfits and gear: Unlock new costumes and equipment to change how your hero looks. Tips for effective swinging and combat in City Hero
• Check the map early: Press M before setting your path to avoid wasting time swinging in the wrong direction.
• Use the high ground: Rooftops serve as both launch points and safe spots to plan your next attack.
• Don't run straight at enemies: You can jump or swing in from the side or from above, and that's usually the safer way to start a fight.  
• Swap weapons when the fight changes: Press B to open the inventory and pick what suits the moment, a blaster or a melee weapon.

Try the Zombie Arena when you're ready. The longer you survive, the better the unique rewards; it’s a wonderful place to test your limits.

Conclusion

City Hero is at its best when you're mid-swing, picking out your next rooftop. The gangster missions, the zombie waves, and the robot boss keep things busy, but after a long session you might want a break from all that noise. That's where Unbox the Room fits in. You play an interior designer who opens boxes and sets up a new home for a client. Swing first, unpack later.
