Community Insight:
This to be completely onset was and is a very awesome game but something is missing. As we were playing the campaign we couldnt restart that level we hade to do the whole captain again to get back to the level we were on. So if we found a strategy we had to do the whole campaign. Just that is annoying to us but great game.
The answer here is simple and multiplayer and then Ill give you five stars you know we all have something or should we say we both have something that we want you guys want five stars we want multiplayer potato Patata.
So nice to for example the German campaign before the season of Denmark and Norway and also its not as fun as the other European war could you please add more of the events that happened there World War II.
During an attack, you can only use 5 units, you can decrease the number of units attacking, but not increase so your entire force attacks. Meaning if you have an army of 100 tanks, attacking 50 tanks, only 5 of your tanks attack. Making for very drawn out attacks, and making it almost impossible to defeat any enemys capital without air strikes. This is a deal breaker for us.
It would be nice if we could decide to make a puppet state out of countries that we conquer.
Great Game! We would totally recommend it to anyone.
Why? Because it had the difficulty setting, very simple and nice.
This game is totally worth the money.
We almost didn't buy this game based on the reviews it was getting about the poor instructions on how to play. If we had not purchased it, we would be missing out on a real gem!! This game is just as fun (if not more so) than Risk… But comparing it to Risk doesn't do it justice. The different units with their individual strengths and weaknesses really add to the strategic element. And rather than collecting a set of cards to buy more units, you need to really think about where you want to build factories. Too close to the front, and you could lose it, too far from the front, and you won't be able to reinforce your armies in time. This is a very well thought out and designed game. We know it is one we will visit for many years to come. As far as the weakness in the gaming instructions/tutorial, that can be easily remedied. Just outsource it via Craig'slist… There are tons of talented but unemployed technical writers out there who would do it for you without charging a ton of money. Bottom line, GREAT game! Well worth the money and its not all that hard to figure it out without well written instructions.
Absolutely fun if you like risk and have time to kill.
From this point these developers can go on to add more complexity to these kinds of games.
Worth looking at if you like WWII games and reminds us of the old turn based hex games from years ago. It's fun.
Perfect iPad version of RISK the board game.
Played 6 hours straight. Very fun.
Fun game that adds complexity to the standard Risk game. Since you can't get Axis & Allies, this is the next best thing. Played 6 straight hours, no crash. Very nice.
We absolutely love it. It reminds us of axis and allies witch our family will never play. (Partially because we always win) This game is great for the money and we highly recommend it.
Interesting game. But it is not historical. You must keep in mind the capitals the each opposing country as your objectives in order to Win the game. We enjoy the power of the German tanks and they can be very effective. We have not played against a life of a pumpkin this game, But playing against the computer has been fun. What makes the game for us is you have the choice of what you construct during production which gives your the army for you to work with.
Great game, needs interactive tutorial for new players.
We enjoy this thoroughly. Its the closest we have to Axis and Allies.
Almost like axis and allies great turn base war game.
Hint: keep you less tanks troops on allies side and keep maximum troops on enemy side and try to create you defend line trough canon and try to attack the enemy through tanks have fun enjoy the game.
Played first game and loved it. Great work.
Make the multiplayer as in European War 3.
Pretty fun. Like A&A up to a point. Fun.
Fun, just quick easy but challenging fun.
Real good game . Once you start hard to put down.
This game was a total blast. The graphics are great and the campaign is great. You did a GREAT job on the conquest, we have played this game so many times and haven't crashed once which is surprising. You give a extensive list of countries which,most games give you maybe 5-6. This games Full version was also very epic, definitely worth that, $3.00. The full version is a very must for this game. Is makes the game 110% better. Great job and keep p the good works.
This is the best game we have ever played.
Lots of fun….fairly intuitive controls and gameplay. Expect to waste a lot of time playing this game.
No words to describe, great WW game.
This is a great game for all those history lovers.
One of the best games for son and father.
We love this game. Reminds us of the old computer game, panzer general.
We spent 12 hours in this game chooses germany and we win the Europe it is wander full game.
Takes a little while to figure things out without too much instruction, but interesting enough when you do. Could use some more missions.
As a history buff, this is a nice diversion.
Great little game. More substance than Risk but not too deep. Fun game to watch TV with or to sit quietly and mildly entertain oneself. Good game for the money.
A decent wargame in the old Avalon Hill style, just not as sophisticated as the AH games. Simple as Risk while being having more options. When will we get a version for the Pacific.
Good game but next game make it so you can change from the axis to the allies or allies to axis.
Combination between castle risk board game and axis and allies. We would like to see a combined unit attack incorporated. Also air strikes are ok but give us the planes to use. Fun game and dynamic enough to keep you playing. Best strategy we've played on iPad.
Just a great strategy game that will keep you thinking for hours.
So far it is holding our attention. We like this game and may buy the series.
Fun game. Needs some work on the how-to-play details.
We really like this game & we play it constantly. A few suggestions… It is VERY frustrating when we leave the game for a few hours or even a day & it shuts down & we lose our progress…ESPECIALLY in 'Campaign' mode where you have to start at the very beginning not just the Chapter last completed. Also please explain the difference in 'Difficulty Levels'… Is it that your allies make increasingly stupid moves the more 'Difficult' the setting????? It would be a great feature to have or earn a 'Supreme Commander' game-play option where you control every military on a particular side. All in all a VERY good & addicting game… Could be GREAT!!! PLEASE EXPLAIN THE DIFFICULTY SETTINGS.
Good game, fun!! Some problems in commands on touch screen, do not respond sometimes, and graphics could improve? Overall very good.
Very solid WWII based strategy game. Highly recommended.
Game needs to have better instruction in how to play other than that really good and fun game.
Engrossing time waster! We enjoy the game but agree the instructions are skimpy.
Exciting game but terrible instructions. Those that do exist are in humorously broken English.
Risk style of play in an European setting, you have to know that there is lots of random elements in the risk style of gameplay, so it might not be the best for all tastes, and is also a slow game due to the types of strategies to succeed.
