From my time playing with these teams, however, neither seemed more overpowered or inferior when compared to the others. If you want more variety, the Dark Elves and the Dwarves are available for purchase at $1.99 each, both of which introduce new units with their own strengths and weaknesses. The Council includes such fantasy-standbys like a priestess, a mage, an archer and even a ninja. Most of the core experience in the game is free: you can play against friends or random strangers as many times as you want, but with only the default human team, known as the Council. The only thing you need to know about the light narrative is that the hero academy is a training ground for potential warriors, and the only way they can train is by fighting against each other. What you have left is an asynchronous multiplayer-only tactics game that is no less thrilling than its spiritual predecessors. Thankfully, Robot Entertainment’s iOS game, Hero Academy, allows me to scratch that tactical itch whenever I want.Ĭreated by the founders of the now-defunct Ensemble Studios - known for their popular real-time strategy franchise, Age of Empires, and their last console title, Halo Wars - Hero Academy simplifies the genre by taking out the “RPG” aspect entirely.
It’s like chess, except if it were invented by an overzealous dungeon master with an eye for detail.įor this reason, games like Final Fantasy Tactics and Tactics Ogre have always topped my all-time favorites list, yet it is a genre that is rarely seen in video games today.
