You ruined this game

Flippinpeeved

This update ruined the game. The sound doesn't work, map zoom is weird, and the entire motion and action of everything is choppy and staccato like. Used to be perfect and beautiful in all regards, worth the money. Now it's a piece of garbage. Just revert a few versions back and I won't hate you anymore.


Broken!

belsnickel!

What a mess! Online multiplayer is awful, no turn alerts on the app instead you get an email, great, as if I need more spam to sort through. Consequently it takes hours or days for a turn to take place, not a day, a turn. The older version was much better. The instructions are not very helpful and customer support does NOT get back to you. RIPOFF!


Used to love this game

BobbyBobbingtonMan

New update makes AI worthless, the game ugly, the feel and sound are not what they used to be. Sometimes the menus won't even work. All for what?


I love it, for me: perfect!

I just got this three days ago and no major issues or glitches running on a newer model iPad mini. It's very easy to learn yet deep to play, which is ideal for me. It's not overly complex, perfect for a more casual wargamer but might be too simple for the hardcore wargamer who's used to 20-page rule books. I play solo against AI and find it very enjoyable, addictive more like it. No experience with multi-player to comment on. I am hooked and am going to pick up the Moscow version next. Cheers


Would give the update no stars if possible...

So, they took a game that played great on phones and tablets and then shredded it o make it Windows and Mac compatible... There are tons of games better suited to the pc/Mac environment. Destroying the tablet/phone playability of this game to make it run on those platforms is, well, stupid. Also, the new multi-player interface is a definite downgrade from Game Center. This game has been ruined! Save your $10!


Still iffy.

So I finally switched to the new version as not many were left to play the original. Plays better than the initial reviews. AI has been lobotomized, I just surrounded about 10 divisions. Much more difficult to understand multiplayer system compared to original Game Center. I will say that once you figure out the multiplayer, there are a lot of good players online. Let's hope they improve the AI for the next update.


The BEST war game in the App Store

Colonel Honey Badger

For war gamers, this is the BEST game app in the App Store. WELL worth the purchase price. Easy to play, but still complex enough to be challenging. I play against other players from all over the world. The straight-up "Battle of the Bulge" scenario works well. Unfortunately, the "Luck of the Draw" scenario doesn't work online, but the "Endgame" version does, and is a very challenging scenario. For new players - play against the AI for a bit, and then challenge or accept a challenge against another player. Hugely rewarding and fun!


Balanced and Fun

USMAREMEMBER

This is one of my favorites. I am close to 500 hours on it. It is easy to learn but hard to be good at. Play the AI till you think you are competent or even good. Then play against other players and you will go to a whole new level. The games play quickly and you have many scenarios to choose from. Well worth the few dollars to buy. See you online!


Sigh...

A Bug

Fun so far but there doesn’t seem to be any means of closing out the history screen during the first battle scenario. One must close the app and restart it.
