Free DOTA App for iPhone, iPad and Android: Plant Wars & Legendary Heroes

I used to enjoy playing DOTA a while back (about 3 years ago) and have stopped playing ever since (time constraint and other new games), now that I have an iPhone, I always wondered if there was something similar (can play it during spare time). I found 2 cool games that is similar to DOTA app that can be played on iPhone, iPad and Android. Here’s the best part, it’s FREE! You don’t have to pay, unless you want to buy special items.

 

DOTA App: Plant Wars

 

 

At first, I thought that it looks somehow like a kids game, but it was placed in the strategy category in games (app store). I tested it out upon downloading and somehow I was surprised that the game was so similar to the way DOTA was played. I played it on my iPhone 4 and iPad 1, it went really smoothly and the controls were superb (touch is way better than a mouse). The game is much more simpler than DOTA app, you can choose different heroes, battle it out with the ai and you have sidekicks that help you battle the other side. The objective is to destroy the main base of the other side. The characters look really cute, like in kid’s games, but don’t be fooled by it, the game is still as harsh and as fun as DOTA app. The only downside to this is that it is a 1 on 1 type of game (one hero to one hero), and each hero only has 3 types of magic. The game is simple but it could be too simple for some (I like it simple).

 

DOTA App: Legendary Heroes

 

 

As I enjoyed playing Plant Wars, I researched for other games that is similar to it. What I found was Legendary Heroes, I believe I saw it before but I thought that it is a MMORPG (you’d have to be online to play) or it is just another game (boy, was I wrong!). This is the more “older” version of Plant wars, it has more mature looking heroes and graphics not too far from DOTA app. There are 8 heroes to choose from, each having their unique set of skills and magic (4 magic skills per hero). And, unlike plant wars, it can go as far as 3 heroes per team (3 vs. 3). You can also control 3 heroes if you want to or leave some for the AI and control one just for yourself. I really like this game, but I’m having a hard time playing it on iPhone (my Fingers might be too big) and I cannot see what I’m tapping. But, overall, this game is highly recommended for all the DOTA app fans out there.
