1864 saw the Union army make substantial gains against the Confederate forces in the American Civil War. Grant, replacing Halleck, took the risky gamble of attacking the Confederates on three different fronts. While Grant failed to gain any significant tactical advantage in any battle against Robert E. Lee, he succeeded at depleting Lee's forces. On the Western front, Sherman was able to capture Atlanta and seize Savannah. The Union's control of the railways and waterways gave them an immense logistical advantage, which would become vital to the North's eventual success. The Confederacy was ultimately fighting and losing a defensive war.

Great game which crashes too much
Anonymous Eric
Love this series. Overall, it has been one of the most stable engines on the iPad. 1864 has a nice update in graphics from its predecessors and some new features that give it a more finished feel. Unfortunately, it keeps crashing on my updated iPad Air. After that first crash, I can't even restart it. I've removed it and reinstalled it, but the problem isn't fixed. Don't want to give up on it, but I'm getting close. First big technical problems I've had with the studio.
Great game (if you could play it)

Same problem as everyone else. Played for about an hour. Now it crashes every time I try to open it.
Great once bugs fixed

Like others, I love this series, and this is perhaps the best installment ... once the bugs were fixed and I did a complete reinstall.
Simply superb

These games just keep getting better and better.I just wrote a book called "Brothers In Blood", about the Civil War, and so I am somewhat an expert on the way they fought.The realism and attention to detail is really remarkable.
Addictive

Great game! An undo button would be great, its very easy to accidentally move on the ipad, plus it takes a while to learn what units can do and undo would allow more leeway there.
Impressive...

But it crashes constantly. From what I have been able to play, it is soooo impressive, I can't wait until they fix it.
Would Be Great

I bought the app after trying the light version. Really enjoyed it the two times it opened until it crashed in middle of play. Game will not load. Went to developer website for possible solution or updates in the works to no avail.
Need a crash Helment!!!

This game only allowed me to play 3 scenarios before it started to crash. Really!
The new Avalon HIll

For military wargamers this has the technical proficiency of SPI with the speed and fun of Avalon Hill. I've waited 20 years for simulations to achieve their potential. It's here.
