Axis & Allies 1942 Online

I’m loving this version of A&A, and I can assure readers that the iOS version is now very playable following the bug fixes. I play on an iPad and it gobbles my battery but otherwise runs smooth on high settings. Feature requests: * being able to edit non-combat moves during mobilisation would prevent some simple mistakes from ruining a game that has had a lot of time put into it * being able to continue games with the AI following a forfeit or standard victory (ie: to continue to world dom) would increase ability to practice and learn about later round play even if the result looks inevitable to the losing side who understandably won’t want to play it out. * some way of at least downloading the game stats from all rounds (income, power etc) — a chart showing how they change each round would be best. Maybe a stacked bar chart? * being able to switch sides mid game * landing/loading onto friendly carriers/transports

I am a long time fan of of axis and allies and think that the bored game is the best bored game I have ever played but this mobile version is good but not as good. The main things I find annoying are that you can’t place the plane in the country once you take it and that you can put a British soldier in an American transport and vice Versa. But overall it is a good game but expensive.

Bugs now fixed in iOS so happy to recommend.

Graphics are poor quality as the base map is very low resolution. The functionality of the UI is poor. Unable to recommend

Game literally just does not work - game starts then just a black screen, nothing happens

I’ve simply never managed to get the game to run in any mode, whether one player or tutorial. Shambles

4*s for the iPad version - the AI is a little “odd” sometimes (eg attacking India with fighters only - what’s that all about?) and often reacts to moves rather than preempts, but it’s a great tool for trying out new tactics for when you’re playing tournament games with people, or custom games with friends - both of which work really well in the app, as does pass & play if you’re all together but can’t set up a board. Interface works well once you’re used to it, even the transport pick up/drop off. Stability ok and reboots fast enough if it does get “confused”. However, 1* or less for the iPhone version - it just doesn’t work yet

I really really didn’t want to give this review as I love the game and when it works, it works well but 90% of the time it doesn’t work. I have to have the performance toggle on in the graphics menu to use minimal resources and the game still doesn’t work. I am on a iPhone 12 Pro Max, so very decent iPhone hardware - I can’t comment on what it may be like on an iPad, maybe a little better as the chips are more like desktop architecture? Just such a shame as I can’t do one entire round with one faction without having an issue. A little strange as at the start of my current game it seemed to run perfectly fine, but now I am on round 2/3 it just gives me a black screen all the time. As such, I have requested a refund from Apple - such a shame, I am sure it will be perfectly fine but I just can’t play it 🙁 wholly recommend the PC version though, that is fantastic, I just wanted the same experience on my phone…

Game goes to black screen all the time and I’m using the newest iPhone pro with the latest software. Seems to be completely broken. Will be requesting a refund

This is the only game I have ever bought where it is buggy to the point of unplayable. It should not have been released yet
