"Fire Emblem Heroes" has been making waves in the iOS and Android market. The game, published by Nintendo, is one of the best "Pokemon GO" alternatives out there.

Since the game is a grueling task for beginners, several hacks have surfaced for easy goers. Aside from the need to assemble a squad of capable units, orbs are hard to come by.

Earning orbs is an occurring element of the game if you play it by the book. Players can also earn orbs by buying them with real money.

That's where a ton of sketchy online services promise free orbs. According to TechMic, a Youtube video allegedly claims to give players free orbs.

In the video presentation about the "Fire Emblem Heroes" hack, the user allegedly earns 99,999 orbs. That sounds fishy enough, several user comments have revealed that the hack does not work. To try the video's claims, a friend tried the hack, to no avail, there were no free orbs.

In the aftermath of "Flappy Bird's" massive success, a similar hack surfaced years ago. The alleged hack would increase a players score, but with a price.

Aside from the hack not working, several adware and viruses have been reported by those who used the hack. It's possible that some "Fire Emblem Heroes" cheats and hacks might actually have a virus.

Plus players that use these tools might likely violate Nintendo's code of conduct. The code prohibits "hosting, intercepting, using cheats, hacks and any software designed to modify the game.

Judging from the view count of several of these YouTube hack guides, players are at serious risk of violating the code. There has not been any actual proof if the following hacks do work.

Still, the best way to play the game is starting from scratch. Plus there are hundreds of tips and tricks to improve your play in "Fire Emblem Heroes."

You can check out the video showing the alleged free orbs bellow. So far Nintendo has not made a comment regarding the hack. Stay tuned for updates.
