The General

In this version of the classic board game you lead your troops into battle against the computer opponent in a race to capture your enemy's flag before he gets yours. Initially you can't see how the enemy has positioned his troops and he can't see yours which gives ample opportunity for bluffing and deception from both sides.

"4 out of 5. We recommend the program to board game lovers." - Download.com

"It's like chess spliced with Minesweeper and Guess Who. Bearing in mind how important subterfuge and bluffing are in the original game, the silicon opponents provided are remarkably sharp." - EuroGamer.com

Good, but for the price it needs updating

Gameplay is fun, however varied CPU difficulty and online 2 player mode are musts that this game doesn't have.

Needs 2 player badly!!!

Great game but needs the computer difficulty, wifi, and Bluetooth. After you add those this game gets MORE than 5 stars.

Been there, done that

Nice game, but after playing it about 5 or 6 times you realize that the computer uses the exact same starting positions for it's men every single game. Not knowing where each of his players are would make it much more enjoyable to play after the initial few times.

Fix the bugs

I used to play this game all the time, but now there must be a bug, how in the hell can a 7 beat a 2? Until this is fixed this will stay 2 stars.

Not fixed!

The pieces do not respond to touch and thus will not move. Game is useless when you can't move the selected pieces.

great app but better for Ipad
Mason Nuss

really fun game, I also play it for the computer, but on an Iphone or Itouch like I have the pecice are hard to move because they are so small. which is why this would be better for an Ipad but still buy it

Fun... Need a hard difficulty

This is fun and perfect size on the iPad. Lots of people complaining about the graphics but you can change the look of the pieces by clicking on the red castlelike icon. I would like a scoreboard. Sometimes i wish there was an undo button but its stratego, you cant have an undo because the piece is revealed. I would like a harder difficulty, though the computers have great strategies.

If this worked with game center it would be epic

the game is fun the the setup is the same every time. If it had multiplayer that would eliminate this issue and make it a 5 star game.

computer has several advantages

The player cannot repeat a move 3 times, yet the computer is allowed to repeat its moves. Computer seems to know where the bombs are placed and will avoid hitting them. Please correct these issues.
