The Age of Sail! Ships-of-the-line, corvettes and brigantines battling it out on the high seas. Now imagine their captains carrying iPhones: instant access to the latest nautical charts, bird's eye view of battleship disposition, push-button cannon fire... This version of the classic strategy game is seriously outdated... in a good way! Use the gorgeous interface to find your adversary's ships before they sink yours.
Lingkar
Read full descriptionHide full description
Surakarta is a classic strategy game from the city of Solo on Java, Indonesia. Two sides of twelve pieces each face off on a 6×6 grid. What makes it special are the eight loops around the edges: only a piece that travels through at least one of these loops can capture. This creates a game with a movement all its own — calm in its build-up, surprising in its turns. Lingkar brings this game to iPhone and iPad in a modern, lovingly crafted edition. The capture along the loop is rendered as a fluid animation: the piece visibly travels around the curve before taking your opponent. RADICALLY GENEROUS The complete game costs nothing. No ads. No subscriptions. No purchases that affect play. If you'd like to support ongoing development, you can donate voluntarily — a donation is purely a thank-you and unlocks nothing. Everything in the game is there for everyone. OFFLINE AND PRIVATE Lingkar works entirely without the internet. There's no account, no sign-up, no tracking. No data is collected, and nothing leaves your device. AN OPPONENT, ALWAYS READY Five AI levels from your first steps to a genuinely tough opponent. The highest level thinks noticeably hard — without keeping you waiting. TWO PLAYERS ON ONE DEVICE Play in turns on the same iPhone, or use table mode on iPad: the board sits in the middle, both sides see their own status bar, with the opponent's rotated 180°. LEARN AND PUZZLE An interactive tutorial in three chapters gently introduces the rules — skippable at any time. Plus 50 tactical puzzles across three difficulty levels that make the capture along the loop second nature. CULTURE WITH SUBSTANCE A small culture section tells of the city of Surakarta, of the tradition of scratching the board into the sand and playing with shells, and of batik and the Kawung pattern — brief, careful, and respectful. ACCESSIBLE TO ALL Pieces differ in shape and material, not just colour. Full VoiceOver support for the board and moves, and Dynamic Type across the entire interface. Universal app for iPhone and iPad. Available in German, English, Japanese, French, Dutch, Swedish and Indonesian.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Lingkar at Free against ChartFight SP's $0.99. ChartFight SP's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
