Touch Arcade - I've played a lot of iOS games in my time, and have gone through varying levels of addiction with certain titles. Even so, that usually doesn't last for too long. I've never found my own personal Angry Birds or Tiny Tower. That is, until I picked up Hero Academy [Free] for the first time. Shortly after, I noticed that I was playing a match while cooking, waiting for people to come over, or pretty much any other time I had three free minutes or more at a time. At that point, I identified that I might have found that game that I feel the need to play endlessly. Good news is, all my other friends seem to have the same problem, so that works out for me.

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.
