Spielprinzip

Das Spiel hat kein Tiefgang oder die Möglichkeit tricky, clever oder listig zu agieren sondern man wählt permanent 3 von 5 Karten, Ende. Irgendwie nicht mein Fall.

Silly game

I wrote a review awhile back, and it got deleted. So I will try again.

The idea behind this game is good, very good. There is area control, and there is card play. It is all ruined by the ability to move an army through enemy territory as if the enemy wasn’t even there.

That’s unrealistic, and silly.

What the..

The game is awesome, but..
Guys, it crashes all the time!
What am I paying for?!

oh

good game

Pretty Much Perfect

Could Acram just take over all digital board game design? The UI is insanely polished.

I’ve played the game about a dozen times in 24 hours and I’m ready to take on higher AI difficulty.

Edit: one thing I can’t stand about online multiplayer is that you can’t add AI players to a multiplayer game. Seems like this could be done and would make it easier for two people to play online multiplayer but not have to resort to a two player game.
