"I’m going to start this review with a statement about myself: I do not play mobile phone games. I have tried to, but I never found the platform fascinating as a gaming device, even with all the celebrated releases. The fact is I simply don’t like the idea of being forced to use handicapped controls that deteriorate the overall experience. With that said, then, I am happy to see that some of the developers of these top iOS games are bringing their titles to the PC through digital distribution. One such title is Hero Academy, created by the folks at Robot Entertainment who also made the addictive and fun Orcs Must Die! series. As a fan of their past games, I was happy to put on my medieval armour and take a look at the PC version of the game." (darkzero)

AR - Hero Academy combines ever popular asynchronous multiplayer with tactical combat. Does it succeed?
Hero Academy’s gameplay is simple and fun. The game begins with a randomly chosen battlefield. Some are basic grass squares, while others have different gimmicks that can be used to influence the battle.

GameWoof reviews Hero Academy from Robot Entertainment. This Android game is a good freemium title thanks to its deep turn-based strategy and fun asynchronous gameplay.
