One of the most nice strategy game ported on ios platform
Thanks to offer us this old jewel. This 1995’s game just need some graphic polish with new technologies. But the core is the same and we love it.
When are you able to integrate local network game between 2 or 3 apple devices.
Maybe some mouse porting need some adjustments. When you need 3 fingers for example to choose quantities of goods you want to migrate…
Thanks it s like the original one the best!

Controls WAY too clunky - Don’t Buy
I love this game, but this version is unplayable. You have to literally drag the cursor around the screen to play.
Not worth the purchase on a Mac
The keyboard takes over the screen, you have to keep hiding it to see what it says and the finger and mouse alignment is shocking. I loved this game and played for hours years ago. I was thrilled to see it on the App Store however, I cannot play this on the iPad. Gutted.
Listen to the others' reviews
Navigation and controls are unbearable. Starts with you having to touch/point the arrow. Then keypad to navigate. Then basically you're stuck trying to assign a colonist because it's unclear how to exit the screen. Played for about 5 mins and have requested a refund.
Not good
Just terrible , the game controls are unusable. Completely takes any fun out of the game
Ignore negative reviews
I’ve been looking for this game for so long, I can’t believe I just found it. The click and drag functions are easily replaced by alternating between the inbuilt keyboard mode and the manual moving of the cursor on screen. Same music, same graphics, exactly the same game. Been playing it and loving it all over again. SO glad I finally found it!

Doesn’t work
Crashes when open waste of money
Do not recommend
It’s honestly kind of amazing how poorly this port is done. I read the reviews and thought, “hmmm, I’m playing with a mouse and keyboard connected to my iPad - surely these complaints I’m reading won’t apply.” Wrong. Completely wrong. In order to use a keyboard, you need to use the built-in virtual keyboard. It does not recognize one connected to the iPad. And mouse? Nope, you have to use a bizarre touch interface to move the mouse. Is this playable? Probably. Would it be fun? No.

Unplayable
Such a disappointment. The game is unplayable in its current state
Good game
Just like the game on Amiga. Thank you so much for creating the copy for iPhone
Terrible Port
I was excited to try the game but no effort has been put into porting the game. The game relies on you dragging a buggy mouse cursor across the screen to click on things and pulling up a fake keyboard to perform certain actions. There are no native touch features such as moving around the map with your fingers. I would not recommend at all.

Classic real adventure no extra charges…
Having played and absolutely loved this real adventure game from the 90’s I can tell you this. Fun and free of all those extra charges once you buy it once it’s worth every penny… Having actually called in sick to work just to play and finish colonization back in the early 90’s true story it’s that fun…

Controls
I love this game. But, the controls make it impossible to play. It’s unfortunate
Je me suis fait avoir
Le jeu n’est pas jouable, difficile a expliquer mais vos doigts doivent déplacer la souris très mauvaise réactivité au passage) pour cliquer il faut faire des appuis longs. 3 euros par que je suis un fan de la 1er heure de ce jeux mais ne faites pas comme moi pour satisfaire votre curiosité ^^
not worth the time and effort
As a PC game this was a no Brainer. However on the iPad it needs a full update. The UI is cumbersome at best; if you persevere with the game play, as you get deep into the game the BUGs start to appear. Proving to Bea very frustrating game that is in urgent need of HELP.
Find an alternative game or use your PC or steam.

Unplayable UI, on an excellent old school game.
The game is just as I remember it from the early 90s.
The control interface for iPad is terrible. I feel I have wasted money on an unplayable game, because of the good memories.
.
If there is an updated version released in the future, with a better UI, I would consider buying again.

Same as the original - except you don’t get a mouse and keyboard
Check online for the hot-key functions.
Like:
Using +/- to load/unload specific cargo. Pressing shift will then allow you to select a specific amount of that cargo also.
It’s a bit clunky but it’s such a classic game, and nothing at all was changed. Don’t think it’s even available anymore but I’m still allowed to play it and clearly doesn’t need updates.

Do not buy. Waste of money.
I sold have listened to the reviews. If I could give it 0 stars I would. The mouse navigation with the touch is absolutely awful and the keyboard takes up most the screen. It’s unplayable and I can’t get a refund
Schön ist anders
Leider muss ich mich meinen Vorkommentatoren anschließen. Die Steuerung ist grausig. Mit den richtigen Buchstabenbefehlen geht es aber. Nur Speichern und Laden bekomme ich nicht hin. Wenn mir hier einer einen Tipp geben kann, wäre ich dankbar. Gerne hier als Rezession oder in der Facebook Fangruppe.

Unusable on iPhone
The controls are completely impossible to use on my iPhone. I can’t navigate or basically do anything at all without great difficulty. It makes me feel sick to try. I’m very disappointed.
