It’s deep without feeling complex, and fun without feeling light. Further, it’s beautiful, both visually and aurally, and so intuitive that you don’t need a tutorial to learn the interface. If you’re at all into turn-based gaming, give this one a try. If you’re not, give this one a try, anyway.” — MobileTechReview “A game that will make historical strategy diehards swoon, while also being pretty enough, and easy enough to learn, to draw in people who never knew that this was the game they'd been waiting for.” — TouchArcade “In terms of war simulation games on the App Store, I haven’t seen a better game…” — TUAW “…a game of considerable majesty awaits you…” — Gamezebo “Easily the most educational game I’ve ever played.” — Eurogamer "Battle of the Bulge is as cold, brutal, and unforgiving as the titular conflict, but it's also one of the top choices for hardcore iPad strategists." - Pocket Gamer UK
Spa - it’s a game about Spa
Seems like there is no room for any creative thinking. Capture/hold Spa.
United StatesUsed to be amazing…
…now a hot pile of steaming garbage. Needs major updates or removed from the app store, cannot even start a game.
United StatesBuggy and ridiculous “AI”
Save your money. Used to be enjoyable. Buggy like others mention. My big beef is the lack of AI logic. I’m not one to gripe about how tough a game may be but when the “computer” literally within the first turn wipes out any remote chance of winning its simply not fun. C’mon developers. What? Are you making money off of game points here in stead of sales?
United StatesI've seen dumb choices in game before but none this dumb
The colors of the map are green for vegetation and blue for rivers. The counters are also green and blue. It's impossible to tell who owns a territory unless you go to a seperate supply map, because you can't tell if the blue outline is an ownership indicator or a river. It's such a mind-bogglingly dumb design choice. Someone thought it would look cool to have the counter colors match the terrain, but they threw out usability in the process. It's annoying because it's a mildly interesting game but it's unplayable for me because of its visuals. The gameplay often frustrates because of the draconian limitations of movement, but that opinion may be colored (so to speak) by the frustration of thinking a blue line was a zone of control outline rather than a river one too many times. Please give a different counter color option. And of course since this is slitherine the game will soon be abandoned. I already had to buy Drive to Moscow twice.
United StatesAbandoned
The app has been abandoned and has an insane amount of bugs to where it’s unplayable. Don’t buy.
United StatesNo Sound
Zero music or sounds from the game. And yes, I checked all the settings.
United StatesTwo years since an update!
This used to be a great game until it got bought out. Never any updates to fix the bugs. Wasn’t exactly a cheap app either. Just took our money and ran. Too bad. Still fun to play but the bugs and resulting scoring mistakes make me regret having ever purchased it. Lesson learned.
