Wieder perfekt
Nach den vielen Updates endlich wie‘s vorher war. Wenn nur die „Classic“ Version default wird, dann gibt es 5 Sterne
Great Developer Responsiveness
Didn’t love the new version when it first came out and glad they brought back a way to play the “legacy” version. Truly appreciate development teams that pay attention and respond to customers. New version is growing on me.
Blob update ruined gsme
Its not Strategery anymore. Its s whole new, less challenging game. How about offering a ‘classic’ mode with the old maps?
Bring back the old version!
New version over compensating for what was a great game! I’ve played since the first ipad. How about a classic mode so the game is actually fun again?
New version is a mixed bag
As a long-time fan of Strategery I’m happy to see that it’s still getting some support and this new iteration has some very interesting features. It also, unfortunately, has a few downsides: The new map-generation algorithm seems prone to creating highly fragmented maps where chunks of land are connected by a single narrow “bridge” and it’s easy to end up in a stalemate. It burns the battery in my 5-month-old iPad Pro at a truly impressive rate. As a minor issue I’m still getting used to the changes in the recruitment phase. An update brought it closer to the old behavior but it’s still a bit different.

Only 4 layouts? (Update: solution found)
(Update: turn off “Allow Theming” to return to normal.) Help! Halloween has struck, and suddenly Strategery can only play 4 layouts with Halloween themes. There’s no way to turn this off! I miss the randomized layouts. :(
Great strategy game
This is a great game. It is fast to play but challenging. I have been playing it regularly since it was first released and still think it is great.
Please bring back the more complicated maps (or at least make them an option). The ones introduced in the last update to prevent stalemates, are boring. (I also never had many problems with stalemates. )

Too much
I opened the app today and found that I could ONLY select holiday-themed maps. Deleted the app.
Ridiculous Halloween maps
I will start playing again went you get off these ridiculous Halloween-only maps.
New version is horrid
I have been playing Strategery for over a decade. I use it as a calming bit of fun before bed. The new version, which downloaded and updated by itself without my knowledge is dreadful. It is no longer a calm soothing pre bed ritual. The visuals are flashy and annoying and the play area is small. The gameplay has also changed. And I think this is a huge BUG. This game now automatically ends your turn whenever it wants to even if I don’t hit end turn. Suddenly, while I still have viable attack options, the game takes over and moves into the next AI player. It is soCRAP now. I keep trying to like it but the stupid bugs, the ugly, unattractive interface and game screen that gives me a headache is just too much. I wish there was a reasonable alternative but there isn’t. Why buy something then update it and turn it into rubbish.

Great update but a major battery drain
I’ve always enjoyed playing this game since its first launch, long ago. This new version is great, with welcome new features. However, I find it to be a major battery hog. A few minutes of playing it and my phone’s battery is down by several percentage points, all the while making the back of the phone quite hot.

Bad Update
This used the be my goto game, but the recent update has made it so much more random. It's not really a strategy game any longer.
a classic
I wish I could go back to the previous version.
EDIT - THANK YOU editors for adding the option to switch back (hold down on logo)

An attempt was made
It’s pretty imperative that if the user has perimeter reinforcements on, the computer uses it as well. I also miss ‘winner take all’ setting.
It was better before
What happened?! I must have had the game for over 10 years, with over 10k wins on the huge map at the extra nasty level. Then the latest update turned it into something juvenile. Please just give the game the classic geometric look and proven dynamics back. Please!
Online matchmaking?
Friend codes only for versus? This is insane. Glad to see this get an update, but the removal of online matchmaking is truly insane.
Resource issue
Hey the game is great but it’s such a resource hog with my phone slowing down and heating up
Much joy after initial horror…
I’ve been playing this game every day for many, many years - it’s my zen game.
I nearly cried when I saw the update had done away with the original, simplistic version so was happy to see on the reviews that it’s still there in an Easter egg - suggest this is made more prominent so as not to get too many bad reviews before people realise.
As I understand it this may have stopped working with the latest iOS update so thank you for keeping it alive. Think there’s a tip option somewhere, if so one coming your way! Best value for money I’ve had out of anything ever given how much I play it.
Despite my love of the original version I’ve had a go on the new one and does seem fun, so might bounce between the two.
Thanks again!

Restored after the last update
Thank you to the developer. The original game has been restored as a setting. It’s a great game again, love it.
Response from developer
Tap and hold on the Strategery logo on the main menu to launch the Legacy version of the app — complete with your old stats!
Old version is accessible - love it
I loved the original Strategery and it was my go-to game for a simple way to wind down at the end of the day. The update was flashy but ultimately not as playable. Thanks to the Easter Egg of holding the in game logo for several seconds, I have my old game back. THANK YOU Developer for offering that option - I can play again and am back to my routine.
