This includes singleplayer and multiplayer modes, and offers level progression with rewards. GAMEPLAY Dota Underlords is an auto battler, a chess-inspired strategy game, where players place their characters, also known as heroes, on an 8x8 grid-shaped battlefield.After a preparation phase, a team's heroes then automatically fight the opposing team without any further instruction or direct input from the player. A match features up to eight players online who take turns playing against each other in a one-on-one format, with the winner being the final player standing after eliminating all of the opposing heroes. In addition to the online matchmaking, single-player matches against bots are also featured, as well as a "freestyle" practice mode that puts no limits on hero combinations. Over the course of a match, players earn gold and experience points, which are used to upgrade heroes and other playable units to make them stronger.Players also make use of items, which give stat bonuses to units. The game also features a "duos" mode, allowing two players on separate boards, but sharing health and levels, to perform as a team, with the winning duo having the best combined damage totals by the end..
