Heroes of Order & Chaos 3.6.4a

Online strategy games have a fan following of their own. The games are usually called MOBA games i.e. Multiplayer Online Battle Arena games. The thing about MOBA is that it is fiercely competitive and since you play against many other players, you need to continuously adapt and change your strategies in order to keep winning and in order to keep progressing in the game. This is why MOBA games usually bring something new and different to the table. Heroes of Order & Chaos is a multiplayer strategy game developed by Gameloft. We look at the multiplayer gameplay, internet connectivity and customization options to help you decide if you should invest your time and energy in this MOBA offering or not.

Heroes of Order & Chaos has a very simple yet interesting storyline. It revolves around heroes and their capability to protect their own and to bring death and destruction upon their enemies. Multiple players from all around the world team up and then play in teams against one another to see which team co-ordinates better and ends up winning the battle and the loot.

There are three maps available in the strategy game with two maps for 5v5 gameplay and one for 3v3 gameplay. You can play random games where you would be matched with other players in a random fashion and you would team up with them in order to defeat the opponent. There is a chat section where you can strategize though in most cases, you learn about your teammates and their strategies on the go and look to ensure that you create as much impact as possible in the game. There is also a custom gaming option where you can team up with friends and play against another group of friends or another team. These games are usually more competitive and more organized as the players know each other and strategize better.

The gameplay itself is simple and easy. You can choose one hero per battle with the hero coming with its own set of powers and skills. You can deploy these powers within the battle in order to create a solid impact and lead your team to victory. The strategy game requires you to be judicious about your use of powers and this is where the strategic aspect of the game comes onto the fore. You need to understand the hero and his powers and ensure that you use the powers at the right instant in order to be able to defeat your enemies.
The graphics of the game are excellent for a mobile-based MOBA game and can actually rival most computer-based MOBA games. It is easy to understand what is going on in the battlefield and you can see what your hero is doing and what other heroes are doing during the battle session. The controls are all screen-based as well and this means that you are always in complete control. The controls are well spaced and you can customize them as well in order to better suit your style.

There are multiple heroes available in the game with each week a hero becoming available free. You can buy heroes permanently with in-game currency that you earn while playing. The problem now is that the strategy game developers are now not introducing new heroes and this means that the game has become stale with a few select heroes only available these days.

The MOBA game's internet connectivity is also an area of concern where developers need to focus if they want to retain the player base. Even with good speeds, many players get disconnected randomly and this can be extremely frustrating.

Features:

• Great variety of heroes available with different powers for each hero
• Excellent graphics that provide a great gaming experience
• Smooth multiplayer game play with 3v3 and 5v5 options available

Conclusion:

Heroes of Order & Chaos is a multiplayer strategy game with quality graphics and smooth gameplay. With variety of gaming modes and multiple heroes to play with, this is a quality game for MOBA enthusiasts.
