I'm sure other Venan-folk will chime in here, but when I was thinking about Book of Heroes development, I was thinking about a bunch of different games. First, I was looking at what was currently available as an RPG in the free-to-play space. In that sense, I played a lot of games like Mafia Wars, Kingdoms Live or Dragone Age Legends. As far as more traditional RPGs go, I'm a huge fan of early Final Fantasy games. I know people here at the office are also fans of Icewind Dale, Planescape: Torment, Baldur's Gate, and the Diablo series. We wanted Book of Heroes to feel like an "MMO on the Go!", so we looked at our experiences playing World of Warcraft (for the Alliance!) and more recently Star Wars: The Old Republic (for the Republic!).
