I have now Alluded to the Game "Battle for Wesnoth" for about 4 Hours, the conclusion: Positive:-Nice pixel type and Great Animations-Huge selection of Troops to defeat the Enemy-Card editor campaign mode-Free2Play (and as far as I'm spun t, no Advertising and In-game purchases:))
-Interesting Gameplay And Combat Design negative:-It depresses extremely when you are in a good Position and actually everything is decided, but then with the Strike Chances totally ver ♥ ♥ ♥ st and turns the Tide ...-To win you need vi el Glück, sure, you should have some Skill, but then luck-for Starters a little hard to decide, I had to start the Tutorial 3 times ... (Either I'm stupid or it's really too hard) The Campaign Levels aren't Ez either, even if underneath it says "very light" (There are opponents who can heal each Round by 8 HP and make up to 20 dmg in ' Light ') I hope this Text has facilitated your Decision to install the Game. On the Whole, it's a passable Game in which the Tactical Knowledge is demanded and works much like Scissors, Stone, Paper (Archer beats melees etc)

The Best turn-based strategy game in the Appstore. Infinite Gameplay, with the possibility to download new units, campaigns, etc... Free of charge. Essential!

Excellent adaptation of the freeware version for Mac, Linux and Windows. So far Bessun bug and fluid game. If you like turn-based strategy with RPG elements, it's the game that's for you.

The smartphone implementation has been quite successful, only the Standard View is too close. There is no overview. When Zooming Out, it then becomes quite jerky. Annoying is clearing old Scores. A Batch Function would make sense.

True to the PC version but with less card Editor. The game is very good, the universe is sublime, we do not get tired, the scenarios are many. The only negative would be on the quality of the graphics on iPhone, a little small. Some translations also remain to be done but nothing very nasty, a little update should suffice;)!

Since 2004 I play this game. Bcp of subtlety and yet quite easy to take in hand. Old school design! I would even say that my Nintendo of the year 90 could run this masterpiece! A real game without buying in app in line of games for gamers! Well know the factions, and calculated his moves in advance! Available for free on PC, Mac and Linux...

While I’m glad the game is finally working again, the unneccessary arrows, that’s never been there before, for scrolling up and down are highly annoying & especially so when it comes to recruiting units. Where you used to be able to utilize a large portion of the screen to scroll up an down, you now have to use the tiny arrows, which disrupts the gameplay & makes it unsuitable for touchscreen.
No update aviable since I mentioned this issue & the arrows are unfortunately still there.
Updated. Please enjoy!
Still working to bring you an iPhone port of the latest release, meanwhile you can have 1.10.5 on iOS 11.
Sorry for delays!
Edit: Sadly, latest released 1.10 iOS code is lost. Now exploring the opportunity to re-implement swipe-scrolling, but no promises.
Maybe this game is fun for oldfags, but as a newcomer I feel very confused. There is a lack of instructions, so it’s hard to figure out what to do, how to fight and so on. If there were more instructions, I’d probably like this game but now I’m nothing but confused.
An old good game that is still awesome! Especially if you play it in local co-op with friends. I remember this game since my college times, and I’m glad to see it was updated a lot. It’s a great turn-based strategy - and it’s completely free, you can be sure. An important thing in our era of loot boxes and hidden costs.
