# Game Modes

StupidMonkeys Realm Hero provides a variety of game modes to appeal to different playstyles, all accessible through the central MonkeyRealm hub. Whether you enjoy competitive battles, cooperative adventures, casual mini-games, or socializing in a virtual world, MonkeyRealm has something for you. The key game modes include:

* [Mini Games](https://fredd-studios.gitbook.io/stupidmonkeys-realm-hero/sm-realm-hero/game-modes/mini-games-and-challenges)
* [Adventure Mode](https://fredd-studios.gitbook.io/stupidmonkeys-realm-hero/sm-realm-hero/game-modes/adventure-mode-farming-and-village-building)
* [Story Mode](https://fredd-studios.gitbook.io/stupidmonkeys-realm-hero/sm-realm-hero/game-modes/story-mode)

All these modes are interconnected within the MonkeyRealm. For example, story quests might require you to craft a better weapon (asking you to engage in Adventure Mode to mine ore), or an Arena season might coincide with a world event in the story. Offering these multiple modes, StupidMonkeys Realm Hero encourages players to engage with the game in varied ways, increasing overall engagement and retention.
