### 1/5 — Improve the map

*2022-12-30, version 2*

When I downloaded this, the ENTIRE MAP was green. Please fix this bug

### 2/5 — Good game but map issues

*2021-05-20, version 2*

I’ve played this game on Android, and it is a very good game. With tha apple version, the map will not load correctly. It shows up sometimes as a patchwork, with partial game map. It looks terrible and basically makes the game unplayable. Sometimes the map is no map at all, merely a solid green background. This is surely fixable. I will rate this game much higher if I have an actual map to play on. But for now…

### 3/5 — Lack of turns

*2021-02-27, version 2*

Fun game, and a great idea. I just don’t like getting interrupted when I’m out of turns. You know? I want to enjoy the game.

### 5/5 — PLEASE FIX!

*2020-01-28, version 2*

Great concept of a game and it is a true shame how the game is filled with bugs. Map is covered in green and U.N. Won’t come. True shame and a waste of money. Hope developer fixes.

### 4/5 — Good retro war game

*2019-05-14, version 2*

Excellent recreation of a cardboard counter war game, but having a lot of trouble getting all the map to show up. About half of it is just green. I’m using an iPad. Trying to switch the graphic settings, but no luck so far.

### 3/5 — Not bad... I like it.

*2019-01-02, version 2*

This is pretty neat......I was hesitant because people said the UN reinforc,Mets don’t show up but they DO! Lower right corner...might have to resize. 

Could still use an update. Be nice if the naval forces could move. More likelihood of Russian intervention. Also the US 45th Infantry Division (OK National Guard) does not show up and they played a prominent roll in the war.

Would love to see some modern or hypotheticals with this. Central Europe in the early 80s, Desert Storm (with option for Iraq taking Saudi in late Aug 1990).

### 3/5 — Ouch

*2018-09-02, version 2*

Sept 2018: Still broken. Tried fresh download. C'mon David - get it together buddy.

2018 Update :  Game is broken since last update. No map. Units floating in green. Please fix.

Old review:

Good work. So very few real war game designers on mobile.  Interface for Korea made the sale for me.   Update the rest of your games so that the interface matches Korea and I'll buy them too.

### 2/5 — Korean War 1950

*2018-08-08, version 2*

The game is great when it loads but 90% of the time the map doesn’t.

### 5/5 — Make a Chinese civil war version plz

*2018-07-29, version 2*

I love this game’s unique division system that makes the game a lot more realistic.

### 1/5 — Can not see U.N. reinforcements

*2018-05-20, version 2*

Don’t buy until they fix
