Price History of The General

Description of 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 For the latest news on all my games follow @SeansGames on Twitter!

Fantastic game
It is just like the classic board game. Challenging AI, customizable settings, and low price. I have sunk a lot of hours into this gem of an app. 5/5

Takes me back to my childhood!
Just like my favorite childhood (and young-adult) board game!

Great game But extremely slow!!!
I love this game but at times it is extremely slow. It takes computer 4-5 seconds to move. In a game that takes possibly hundreds of moves it's hard to concentrate when it moves slow and choppy. I finally figured out that the game is slow before the next iOS update. Once the phone is updated the game works perfectly for a few weeks then it starts to slow down and eventually you can’t play it and have to wait for the next iOS update. But otherwise an awesome game!
