Extremely well-designed
Jskatz15
This is a great game. The UI is intuitive and be true to the original. The only issue is that it seems like the achievements dint always unlock. I just won a game on turn 2 when the USSR gave me a DefCon victory, but the achievement didn't unlock.
Great game, bad crashing app

TS is an amazing game but the app continuously crashes on my iPad 2. If Playdek gets around to fixing the crashes this game will easily get 5 stars from me. I have played the board game for years and was really looking forward to the app version but it is severely disappointing.
Do not like the new music
kisertn
I like what you've done with the game and I immediately purchased the expansion. But I now have to turn down the music as I simply cannot stand the new stuff. And that is a shame as I was continually amazed how the old music would never get tiring, provided background, and yet did not intrude upon my thinking. This new music I could not stand from the get-go. It's creepy and continually takes me out of my thinking. I looked but could find no way to revert to the original. Wish I could say "maybe the new stuff will grow on me" but it will not. It's just too severe. If I am only one then so be it but, if others also complain please consider putting old music back (or at least providing a toggle). Other than that, I like what you've done with the place. :-)
Crashes

I can't get through the tutorial without it crashing. It doesn't crash in the same place and the tutorial makes you start completely over again. Please fix. I've attempted restarting, shutting off the device, everything short of deleting the app. This is on iPad mini.
Some bad programming
Illusio26
This is my first time trying the app, but the game is somewhat buggy. I had a crash during the tutorial and had to abandon the game. But the worst part is, the AI is SO SLOW. It takes it up to 2 minutes sometimes to decide on it's action. That's absurd. Unless you are doing somethign else while you play, the app is basically unpalyable for anyone who doesn't have infinite patienc.
Crashes and bugs

Tutorial crashes during second action round after placing influence in France and Lebanon. It forces you to restart tutorial every time. Tried to play against ai and it was very slow.
Latest update a disaster
DeLuc
I've been playing this game since it first came out and loved it. Now the AI, which had been fast, takes forever and sometimes doesn't function at all. Sad and disappointing because GMT has a history of diligent play testing and this time clearly didn't do it job. And Playdek is even worse. I click the app support link and it doesn't work. Are they ducking me?
Great game but bugs affecting experience
HaHardier
Nuclear subs, Red scare/purge do not take affect which MAJORLY affecting game play. And lots of crashes. I really like this board game so had high expectation for the iOS version of it. Hope things can be improved for the next update.
mini 4, iOS 10.x

Historically, Playdek has been far better at providing post-release support than in this case. I certainly hope that our faith in their ability to resolve the outstanding issues has not been misplaced because Twilight Struggle is a unique title that deserves the proper treatment. By the way, I am more than willing to wait for a polished, bug-free universal update that addresses its existing problems.
