What is HeroEngine?

In this sector, its products, such as its popular flagship, Gemstone IV, are based on the proprietary Interactive Fiction Engine and a development system in which a staff of GameMasters, many of whom work remotely and part-time, add new elements and expand the world and play experience on a regular, even daily basis. Despite this industry pioneer status and lengthy experience, it would be fair to say that other teams and their projects have greater name recognition.
