Great game
This game plays just like the physical version of the game. It has fewer missions available but the varying difficulty level allows you to challenge yourself. I like it better on the iPad than on the phone, but it has a zoom feature when using the phone that helps you get a better look. I still like playing the physical game, but this one is portable and easy to sneak in a quick play without the setup.

Biased, and too tough to win.
The idea behind this game is great, really great. But for some reason the app handicaps the player every way possible.
You, playing as the Resistance, must go first. Then the patrols are placed. That's not fair, or realistic. In reality, the Resistance would have some idea where the patrols are. At least one patrol should go first.
And town's morale automatically decreases as the game progresses. Even if nothing bad happens! That's just silly. And here's one more thing. The Resistance starts with nothing. Nothing at all. Not with an old shotgun, and not even with a loaf of bread. Again, that's just silly.

Sooooo GOOD
But… what is the likelihood of an update with new music and full screen support on newer phones. Cause that would be great!
Great solo game
Great solo game very hard to beat. Plenty of reply value.
Digital Version Has Rules WRONG
The digital version is much more difficult than the physical boardgame because it implements Patrol Placement incorrectly.
In the physical boardgame, a patrol unit is placed in one of 3 locations. If the first location has a patrol unit OR a resistance worker, it is placed in the next location listed on the card. If that one is occupied, it then is placed in the last one. ONLY if all 3 spaces are occupied, it then goes through the list again, but instead arrests(removes from the game) a resistance worker if they occupy the space it is supposed to be placed in.
In this digital version, Patrols are instead placed on the first open space OR the first space occupied by a resistance worker. This oversight makes the game much worse than the physical boardgame.
If the devs fix this, my rating would be 4 stars instead.

Could be great
Just got the physical version and was excited to see there’s an iOS version. Only problem i have is that I can’t figure out how to use the passports and I didn’t see it in the tutorial.
Music is incredibly grating. Game is too random to formulate any meaningful strategy
Music runs on a 45 second loop. Great for 3 minutes, very annoying after that. Rules are confusing. It took me an hour figuring how to complete missions (send a person to the mission card) and had to look it up online. Game rules are written in horrible font w terrible layout. Game video/tutorial is even worse that handbook. It’s not explained how the soldiers/policemen move so it’s impossible to predict anything. You just lost the game Losing screen is too abrupt and explain nothing. Suddenly you lost the game, sometimes having no idea why or how. Game being hard is not a problem in itself, but here it’s a problem. Even on ‘very easy’ it’s very unsatisfying to play. Game seems completely random and based on luck alone.

Seems good
played a few games, have yet to win.
would like a better preview of the mission cards. not sure if my device but i can only see a small portion of what the mission entails. This is on the new game select area.

I think...
... you need the actual board game to enjoy this. The app by itself is very confusing to learn without actually having played the board game before.
Great solo play
This game app is helping me to be patient whilst I await for the board game to be reprinted (on Kickstarter). By then, I plan to know the game well enough to play strategically and at the advanced level! Thank you for making this app available, and for a decent price.
Pale version of the board game
This app is doesn’t come close to the actual board game. It is missing many of the missions.
Tough but fun!
What a challenge! Haven’t won yet but man is it fun!
Good but,
The game is good, the app works very well, but seems have some differences with the actual board game rule.
It’s good!
Played about 15 full games, no crashes so far. Really nice puzzle with scaleable difficulty. From watching playthrough videos online, it seems there might be more missions in the physical game? Anyway, for the price, it’s a bargain.
Too dependent on luck
I like the concept of the game but I feel it needs some more tweaking so you’re not reliant on luck to win. Basically, there is absolutely no room for error: if the enemy moves to a desired location before you do (and in this case, it’s the 2 radio stations where you get most of your supplies), there is no plan B. You don’t have enough staff to implement a plan B and because supplies are pooled into just 2 locations that could be under enemy control, it usually means there’s nothing meaningful you can do in one turn (and since you have to beat the game in 14 turns, you can’t afford to waste a turn). So it’s a frustrating game that needs to find a better balance between strategy and luck.

Outstanding Solo Game
A fantastic single player game, which is true to the physical board game.
I would recommend to any serious gamers and also those looking for a light and entertaining way to pass 20 minutes.

Resistance française en anglais
Un jeux sur la résistance française, super!
5 ou 6 langues.... mais pas de français. Plutôt ordinaire comme choix.

Good Implimantation
Just got my KS version of the physical game. Needed some help from BGG to get some of the rules. The instructions could be a LOT better. But, with minimal effort you can learn them. Watch a 10 min video on YouTube if nothing else.
Only thing holding me back from 5 stars is it’s missing 3 missions from my physical game that I wash was here. Maybe they came later but I would really like them in this game.

Great port of a tough solo game
I have the Kickstarter game and this is a great port of it. Very tough - just like history - but don’t give up. I didn’t try the tutorial, but it might be worth looking at some YouTube vids if you’re stuck.
Crash crash crash
They game could be interesting if the app didn’t crash once per game.
