Hero Academy was a two-player turn-based tactics video game created by the developer Robot Entertainment, known for their previous series Orcs Must Die!. The game was first released for the iPhone iOS platform on January 11, 2012, with ports later being released for the Microsoft Windows, OS X and Android platforms. In the game, players could take turns moving units on a board and attack enemy units with the objective of being the first to destroy the other player's crystal or eliminate all of the other player's units. The game received generally favorable reviews from critics. The game also featured cross platform play across all installed platforms. A sequel to the game was launched in January 2018. Hero Academy and its sequel ceased operations on April 8, 2019 as one had been long defunct and its sequel had been operating at a financial loss for several months.
