Fun games

Baron Baldwin

I have been playing both the civil war and Rome games. They are addicting. My main criticism is that they could be more realistic in that it is too easy to move units in an ad hoc way, flank and rear attacks aren't as strong as they could be. The games are a little too easy to win. But all in all, a lot of fun. Would love to see American Revolution!


Good but.....

Too many paywalls. The game is $2 but if you want the full experience than its $7. Which on there part is pretty sad and don't forget tax. But if you decide not to pay another $5 than its good, even though that there's only two campaigns.the battles are turn based for some reason ( don't know what genius decide that ) but if they delete the pay walls, then it will be a better but overall it's a decent game that wants to be a money machine.


Excellent game!

Very good strategy game! You can actually see the battle take place without playing with cards.


Very amusing

LOTS of different kinds of units, lots of different scenarios with more to buy cheaply. WAY better than civil war 1862 which was a total disappointment and a waste of money. Feels more like the WW2 tank games from this company, which are also excellent.


Great strategy game.

Great strategy game. Game pieces are well balanced and the difficulties are well suited. There are some basic settings I'm hoping would make the next update tho. I prefer the simple look of the game when it's viewed all the way out, however in this view you don't get to see the health of the unit. Would be nice if I could play it all the way through in this view. Also a setting to where the game speed is always fast would make this game less annoying. I'm always tapping the screen after every move to speed it up as I think it moves too slow otherwise. There than that, the game is great and the IAP for each campaign is cheap and well worth the price. This game is well worth the purchase


Fun strategy game

Game is very enjoyable to play and is generally balanced but on some rare occasions the A.I. will outright dominate a game scenario from the beginning ensuring a one sided victory. Overall a really good game to play. Time seems to go by quickly while playing, which is often a good sign that a game is worth the initial price if purchase. Only downside is the add-on purchase prices of additional scenarios to play. I'm not in favor of games that nickel and dime the purchaser of the game in order to continue to enjoy the initial investment.


Fun Historical Strategy Game

Great hex based gaming on the iPhone. I really like history and strategy and you've blended these well. Have you considered a medieval title? Please keep up the great work!

Lower campaign prices to get a better rating.


Not bad

Not bad but lacks the brilliant Roman strategies like testudos, box retreats, layering of legionnaire formations, use of defensive walls, etc. Also leaves out the use of woman and children throwing rocks by the Germanic tribes, use of firebrands and lightning attacks from the forests which are too sparse for much of the terrain they fought in (and which gave their enemies an advantage). Also the Romans were often greatly outnumbered but their discipline and training offset that. 2 other issues - Many of the battles I paid for don't work. This is the 3rd time I rewrote a review. The other 2 were deleted when I was told my nickname was already taken. In case that happens again I copied this one so I don't have to rewrite it again.
