About this game

Heroic Battle is a challenging strategy board game that requires logic, deception and memory. Play against a friend on your local Wi-Fi network or a computer opponent: Probe, the Computer Stratego World Champion. You can start a new game in seconds and pause a game to complete at a later time.
Heroic Battle is easy to learn. Each game is different. You and your opponent set up your flags, bombs and other pieces and then venture out to try to capture the other’s flag. But the catch is, you only learn the identity of your opponent’s pieces during attacks. Many of the pieces—miners, scouts, the spy—have special properties that you’ll discover as you play.
One of the great features of Heroic Battle is that you can create and save your own setups. Each setup produces a different kind of game. Do you prefer fast, wide open play or a slower more conservative pace? Do you want to fortify your flag and defend it or just hide it somewhere and dare your opponent to find it? It’s up to you.
Heroic Battle is fun to play with a friend. All you need is a local Wi-Fi network, no Internet connection required. One of you taps to create a game and the other taps to join it. Simple as that.
Or you can play against Probe, the built-in computer opponent. Probe is the three-time Computer Stratego World champion, which makes it one of the best AI game engines available. Probe is suitable for play from beginners to experts and can be set to your skill level.

Ratings and reviews

I am enjoying the game, but it is annoying that now every time I open the app it resets the achievements and the settings. Also, any saved setups I made are lost. The gameplay is great but there is no point trying to get the achievements if it resets all the time. Was fixed, but the last update reverted back to zero achievements and resetting the settings.

It's an okay game. close as you can get to stratego without paying for it. however, the game cheats. last game, i was left with my 10 and a 3 still on the board and i had captured all the probes higher pieces (or they were on the opposite side of my 10). I was moving my 10 around to capture one of the probes remaining pieces (and it was between 5 spaces which is MORE than the 3 spaces/moves allowed in a row) and the DEFEAT popped up saying "You have no more useable moves" except I did. Stupid.

Good game but very buggy. It will do things like take control of your pieces, make its mine pieces move, move its pieces through your mines, etc. Also near the end of the game, even though it has plenty of pieces to move will declare that it has no movable pieces.
