While I'm not sure how most fans of the classics will approach EA's remake of Dungeon Keeper for Apple's iOS platform, it's certainly worth your time to check out this double-edged preview on US Gamer that includes a hands-on look at BioWare's Heroes of Dragon Age. A snip:
There are 100 or so heroes and monsters to collect, which you can earn, and indeed level up, by completing quests and battles. If you don't fancy grinding your way through the game, you can simply buy (packs) of random heroes and hope lady luck favors you, which well she might, since spendage ensures you have a fairly high chance to pull a rare hero. If you end up with a duplicate character, all is not lost you can combine two characters to create a new one with improved buffs.
Heroes of Dragon Age has a heavy PvP element, where victory against another human player earns trophies, and defeat results in a trophy being lost. Fortunately, losing a trophy has no real bearing on your teams and characters: it's more of a ranking system that helps match players of similar levels.
