Hero Academy Review | Splitkick
Splitkick: Hero Academy for iOS is easily one of my favorite handheld titles. Asynchronous multiplayer has been colonizing different markets, from Facebook to mobile, and is beginning to pick up PC on the Steam. I mean, pick up steam on the PC.
The appeal is strong. Not everyone has the dedication for a 4 hour game of Civilization V or the time for a 45 minute “Comp Stomp” in StarCraft 2. But anyone can spare two minutes to play a turn in Hero Academy, especially if it can be done from their always accessible iPhone. If some players want to game more intensively, they can start a couple dozen at once. As long as a handful of your opponents take their turns in a timely manner there will always be one more turn for you to make.
