User reviews

Too easy

You can bait the AI into sacrificing his 1 to your spy in every game. When I played the board game, it was far easier to bluff a player whereas the AI continuously falls into the same traps every game. Perhaps you can program an ultra aggressive AI to mix gameplay up a bit.

"Report an issue" means "Contact us"

Excellent game. Now up'ing my review to 5 stars. If you want to contact the developer, you need to "report an issue" even if you have no issue to report.
Suggestion re memory aids, also mark which pieces have moved, and are therefore not bombs.

The best Stratego app

I previously warned players to stay away until the app developer found a way to address players like Victorious and ArmyMP from cheating.

Well, the developer fixed the issue!!!

If you like Stratego this is the app you want to play.

Broken

You broke the game when you changed it recently.
Why?
Just why

Victorious is the worst

Neat idea for a game. Kind of a cross between chess and Memory. But very few players play and the few that do all disconnect from the app when they know they will lose. “Top rated” player Victorious is the absolute worst at this. No idea why the app doesn’t have a way to prevent this. In its current state there is no reason to play this game.
