## What is Neuroshima Hex?

Control an army struggling for survival in the post-apocalyptic world. Choose one of the 4 unique factions—Moloch, Borgo, The Outpost, The Hegemony—and defeat your opponent in tactical warfare. Play solo against an AI opponent or against a human player in an asynchronous cross-platform multiplayer mode.
Prove that you have what it takes to survive: 
March with the machines of Moloch, leading its army toward setting the new world order. 
Become Borgo and unite the forces of the mutants who spread terror in the wastelands. 
Lead The Outpost, humanity's last and only hope, and try to beat the machines in against-the-odds guerrilla warfare. 
Be the boss of The Hegemony, a land of gangers uncaring about the fate of others, living only for violence and their mad entertainment.

### 2/5 — Eek!

*2026-07-18*

Great game, but borked by recent updates that stripped away 3- and 4-player functionality. From a 5-star easy recommendation, to a 2-star shrug.

### 2/5 — Fantastic game until the overhaul

*2026-04-18, version 4.27.16*

I’m not sure what necessitated an overhaul to make the game less convenient to play and the temporary loss of previously implemented factions and features but whatever it is the benefit has not been visible to the user.

### 1/5 — Add the armies we paid for!

*2026-03-25*

This app is a scam and appears to have been intended that way. Not only did players that had armies they already paid for removed (including me) but it appears there was never intent to finish this. The old version was objectively better, but if this got ALL armies physically released for the board game to date, that’d be AWESOME. But it looks to be abandoned. Don’t support this unless they start releasing new armies for it again.

### 1/5 — waited all these years…

*2026-03-13, version 4.27.16*

i bought all the expansions and now the game i purchased is gone and replaced with this garbage. devs are slimey to say the least. don’t spend any time or money with portal games unless its physical copies.

### 1/5 — Poor form

*2026-03-06*

App was great, then it got a lower quality full rewrite, with the majority of DLC people paid for being unavailable. Then they launched new DLC even with the old stuff still not re-implemented.

Game has not been updated in 2 years, old DLC still not brought back despite a pop up on launch claiming it is only “temporarily unavailable”.

### 5/5 — Where’s neojungle?

*2026-01-25, version 4.27.16*

This is among the top ten best games on iOS. But it’s missing some factions. We need them.

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2025-12-19*

Excelent game, simply love it! You should provide more armies!!!

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-12-17, version 4.27.16*

They released a new version of the app that doesnt contain any of the additional DLC armies I paid for :(

### 5/5 — Please Keep It Alive!

*2025-11-29*

I myself love this game, been playing the physical version since the summer of July in 2025, and nowadays no one would play it with me. Found it on the App Store two weeks ago and have played it over 100 times already. To the Devs, this game is great, and I ask that you finish the app fully if you can please. Add the ability to play with up to six players/ai, a bigger board, and with the other modes included in the original game please. For those of us that have played and paid for this, please consider finishing the product for us.

### 1/5 — Got much worse

*2025-11-01*

Great little game that got worse and worse at every iteration. Graphic got messy, game got slower and now you can’t even play 1v2 or 3 AIs, which was very entertaining. Why?
