Every piece is a secret. Two armies face each other across the board, and neither side can see the other's ranks. Is that piece marching towards you a lowly scout or the Marshal himself? Attack and find out, or bluff and make your opponent guess. Heroic Battle is the classic board game of hidden ranks, played on a 10×10 battlefield with 40 pieces a side. Capture the enemy flag to win. Watch out for bombs, send your miners to defuse them, and remember: even the mighty Marshal falls to the Spy. Face a world champion - Your computer opponent is Probe, a three-time world champion AI. It bluffs, it remembers, and it punishes careless moves. Three skill levels take you from first game to serious challenge. Play online - Find a random opponent in seconds, matched by Elo rating - Climb the online leaderboard in Classic and Barrage - Create a private room and invite a Steam friend - Emoji chat, draw offers, and a move timer that keeps games moving Or play on the sofa - Pass and Play lets two players share one screen, hiding each army in turn. Study your games - Replay any finished game move by move, with every piece revealed - Memory aids mark revealed pieces and pieces that have moved, if you want them - Detailed statistics and 25 achievements to earn Your army, your way - Build and save your own starting setups, or let the game deal a random one - Barrage mode: 8 pieces a side for a fast, sharp game - Two piece sets and two rank-numbering styles - An interactive tutorial for new commanders - Leave any game against the AI and resume it later

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Labyrinth at 5.0 against Heroic Battle's 4.1. Labyrinth also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ads (none vs shown). Heroic Battle's advantage is ratings volume (272 vs 2) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
