Too bad you have to have a monthly subscription

I bought this game on steam when it first released there many years ago on my PC. Since then I no longer have a pc and was thrilled to be able to buy it on iOS, but the thrill was quickly erased when I found out that you have to have a monthly subscription to play it, and you can’t just pay once to get it.

You play turn by turn as you try to kill targets, rescue ppl, reach goals etc, but you only see what the units see as they see it. So it’s kinda like a turn based FPS.

With different weapons and equipment (if I remember correctly), and people, to customize as you progress.

If memory serves me correctly the soundtrack is pretty decent too for the game.

If you like good thinking and precise action strategy type games you will love it, as long as you also like a little parasite(aka subscription) eating slowly away at your money.

It’s a shame too, cuz this was a great game I wouldn’t have even thought twice about having to buy it again for my phone after already buying it on my old pc.

I don’t get why they can’t have a subscription to their library of all their games for ppl who want to do that, but also have an option for ppl who want to just buy individual games and pay once for each game, oh well, their loss.

Please FIx the RED campaign CRASH

Every time I select red campaign now the game immediately crashes on the iPad 2017. Can you please fix this it’s been months. Unplayable.

Update Oct 2023 After a year the red campaign is still unplayable. They refuse to respond to emails. No reply. Game club is a scam. Ps I paid full price for this game before game club bought it and ruined it.

The best strategy game I have ever seen. But also the hardest game , really enjoy the process of thinking

Frozen Synapse

Fantastically tactical.

PROS: Simple user interface.
Graphical representation is spot on, the game is about urban combat tactics, not eye candy, SO refreshing.
Physics is accurate enough to give a sense of reality.
Challenging AI.
Unlimited replay ability with random map generation.

CONS: Inability to traverse windows.
No pistol weapons.
No hand grenades. (Grenade launcher weapon only)
No wounds.

REALLY enjoy this game, plays very well on my iPad Pro.
