### 1/5 — Don’t buy this for iMac

*2025-11-01, version 5.1.5*

Does not work on iMac. Wish this was disclosed before I wasted $10.

### 1/5 — Sort out glitches

*2024-11-10, version 5.1.4*

Was a good game but can’t restore purchases so is now unusable

### 3/5 — Could be better if

*2022-12-07, version 5.1.3*

It was more historical and not some German fantasy.

### 5/5 — More maps

*2021-10-07, version 5.0.2*

Oi mate add more maps to two player my lil bro Gregory he don't like the the small amount of maps eh add more two players maps and more choices to add what reinforcements you want

### 1/5 — Can’t Restore many of my past purchases

*2019-01-06, version 3.4.2*

Very disappointed in these games.  Paid for many of the Campaigns and have played them in the past but now asking me to pay for them again and won’t allow me to restore.  Why bother buying any more games from them.

### 5/5 — Restore purchases don’t work my XS Max

*2018-12-14, version 3.4.1*

Ever since they updated the game to support the full screen on the iPhones with notches the restore purchases button does not work. When ever I press the restore purchases button it just brings me back to the page where you select which campaign you want and nothing changes will still ask for payment when you select one. Extremely Disappointed as I purchased almost all the campaigns

### 1/5 — All Previous Purchases Gone, No Restore

*2018-12-11, version 3.3.0*

Without warning, the latest update killed all my previous inapp purchases, without any restore option. I own every game this company makes so this was really disappointing. Now Im fearful of updating any HexWar Games Ltd.

### 1/5 — Purchases lost...

*2018-12-10, version 3.3.0*

How do I restore all previously purchased campaigns? App wants me to buy them again...

### 1/5 — No restoring!

*2018-12-10, version 3.3.0*

Unable to restore previous purchases!

### 1/5 — Have to pay for campaigns again ?

*2018-12-08, version 3.3.0*

I had already paid for all the campaigns. After your recent upgrade I now have to pay for them again. How is this right ?
