Battle of the Bulge

Seems like there is no room for any creative thinking. Capture/hold Spa.

…now a hot pile of steaming garbage. Needs major updates or removed from the app store, cannot even start a game.

Save your money. Used to be enjoyable. Buggy like others mention. My big beef is the lack of AI logic. I’m not one to gripe about how tough a game may be but when the “computer” literally within the first turn wipes out any remote chance of winning its simply not fun. C’mon developers. What? Are you making money off of game points here in stead of sales?

The colors of the map are green for vegetation and blue for rivers. The counters are also green and blue. It's impossible to tell who owns a territory unless you go to a seperate supply map, because you can't tell if the blue outline is an ownership indicator or a river. It's such a mind-bogglingly dumb design choice. Someone thought it would look cool to have the counter colors match the terrain, but they threw out usability in the process. It's annoying because it's a mildly interesting game but it's unplayable for me because of its visuals. The gameplay often frustrates because of the draconian limitations of movement, but that opinion may be colored (so to speak) by the frustration of thinking a blue line was a zone of control outline rather than a river one too many times. Please give a different counter color option. And of course since this is slitherine the game will soon be abandoned. I already had to buy Drive to Moscow twice.

The app has been abandoned and has an insane amount of bugs to where it’s unplayable. Don’t buy.

Zero music or sounds from the game. And yes, I checked all the settings.

This used to be a great game until it got bought out. Never any updates to fix the bugs. Wasn’t exactly a cheap app either. Just took our money and ran. Too bad. Still fun to play but the bugs and resulting scoring mistakes make me regret having ever purchased it. Lesson learned.

There are several issues with this game and I just downloaded it. The game uses about 80% of my screen. The letters and units are almost illegible. Tried following link for support and it doesn't go anywhere.

I can’t read the rules because they are cut off on the side of the screen. This sis the same for the history section as well. It’s a shame. I enjoy the game but am unable to enjoy all of its features.

The previous version of this game was one of the all-time best , indeed almost perfect, wargames on iPad on any other platform. This new update, which comes after the original game studio was bought by Slitherine, has some serious problems. Within 5-10 mins of play I noticed that the graphics seemed unstable with occasional sudden weird glitches such as screen shaking. The beautiful amazing elegant sound design of the original game has been messed with and spoiled e.g. with machine gun fire which is loud and goes on for far too long . There are interface formatting glitches not present in the original. And most alarming of all there I found what appears to be a major rule change (I hope it is a bug...) from the original - the change is about movement in the first couple of turns - the AI carried out 3 space strategic movement out of a contested zone !
