Neuroshima Hex

The new graphics took a little getting use too but I love the game                 One of my favorites

Visual tweaks are fine but such a radical change means I have to completely relearn the tiles The visual language of the game has been changed substantially and many of the armies are nearly impossible to distinguish now Two green factions Two grey Three brown Youre killing me        Bring back the old look

I have never played this before but it is easy to pick up and lots of fun                 Awesome

I have owned this game since it first came out and I keep coming back to it Super high quality game and production value                 This is fantastic

Great implementation of the cardboard version                 Challenging Fun

One of the best games for strategy and multiplayer                 Great game

Like others I prefer the old artwork however its apparently not in the cards to revert back to the old look due to licensing The game still plays as great as ever I bought this when it first came out on iOS and it has a permanent spot on my main home screen Its a perfect phone game good for a quick 5 minute scrimmage against the CPU or a longer PBEMstyle match Constant updates with new armies has kept this game fresh Highly recommended                 One of the best

You are going to see a lot of negative reviews until you give users the option to use the older art for the tiles instead of the new set in this update Even if the new tiles werent hideous it was still rather presumptuous to assume everyone would not care about the change or would fall head over heels in love with it Give users the option to choose the art     No option for previous better tile art

One of the best quick strategy games for the iPad                 Great

Hi Great game been playing for 45 yrs endless replay bug in new version when AI moloch armored hunter had a 1 ranged officer placed next to it it got the bonus even though it was a melee attack not ranged Extremely small detail yes but I thought those in the know would like to know Also any way to change your personal avatar Keep it coming more armies Spider                 Still good endless replay

Time machine THANK YOU You helped me reverse the insipid update to the graphics that ruined many peoples enjoyment of the game Here is how you fix it so you can love this game once again 1 First go into time machine and make sure you have the 252 version of NS in your time machine If you dont the following doesnt work Look for it somewhere back in April 2015 Look in the iTunesmobile applications directory Its called NS Hex followed by its version number 2 Restore it to the iTunes directory It will not over write the current one as the version numbers are different and part of the name 3 Once restored move it out to the desktop so you always have a copy of it 4 Delete the latest version of the app from the iTunesmobile applications directory 5 On ALL your iOS devices that have NS installed turn off automatic updates for apps the delete the game from your iPad or phone 6 Do a sync App should now be gone 7 Copy the NS Hex 252 into your iTunesmobile applications directory Double click it and enter your password if required 8 Re open iTunes and add Neuroshima Hex back onto your device I am so VERY HAPPY I can enjoy this game again If you visit the apps home page you will discover under the comments that the whole licensing argument for the graphics change is bogus Someone followed up and the game company has no issues whatsoever with the classic graphics being in the app My old review is below This is an enormously fun game however the AI needs work I usually play on the highest difficulty with the smartest AI setting with one human and 3 AI players and here are the issues I commonly see 1 In situations where one of the AI players is obviously going to win unless someone or all of us cripples it the other AI players will often ignore it and gang up on the human player This extends to situations where one of the AI players is maybe 12 points behind the leader and if it were human player you would go and attack the leader to then be in a winning situation but the AI will completely ignore this and randomly place its tiles often in places where it will attack no one 2 The AI will often have two battle tokens and a normal attack piece and instead of PLACING the attack piece and then using a battle token it will throw away an attack piece and play a battle token thereby wasting an attack This is laughable 3 Battle tokens are placed randomly and not wisely eg a piece has three attack sides if you know the game you know the pieces that have this Instead of optimally placing the token so that all three attacks are pointing on to the board the AI will place the piece so that only ONE of the attack sides is board facing and the other two are pointing off the board and are therefore useless This is a very stupid move but is extremely common 4 SPECIALS Special tokens that enhance attacks initiative healing and movement are often place nowhere near the AIs pieces and are therefore wasted Again no human player would do this 5 Be great to undo the move if you inadvertantly leave your finger near the tick button Have had the game skip ahead while I was debating where to put my second pieceyou cant say Hold it I havent finished Ugh 6 OKa moan about pricingYou only get 4 different armies I thought I was buying the complete game The other 9 Armies are purchasable in game at USD199 per army You dont need them to enjoy the game but the pricing is way off USD999 for all would be reasonable Otherwise a bundle of fun           Time machine restoration of the classic graphics

The developers have truly captured the feel of the tabletop game with this mobile version                 Great game

The game has some nice little complexities that make it quite addicting                 Addicting

I was surprised by how much fun this game is The gameplay is fresh and the games are relatively quick yet theres plenty of strategy The postapocalyptic theme is very well done and the art is top notch I think of this as scifi chess                 Fantastic game I want more

Update I never thought this game could do wrong by me BUT adding the 30 look with no option to switch back I believe the 30 look is quite aesthetically ugly to the 10 was a mistake I still love this game but I cannot overlook this Please add an option to change back to the 10 My opinion of the game I own the board game and all the official expansions as well as many of the homemade usergenerated ones I play every week with a group of friends and even I must admit it makes a better app than it does board game Buy it buy the expansions enjoy     Updated not so thrilled with this update

Then the new look as of the latest update might not seem offputting That aside even with the recent changes this is a great game and I have been playing it for as long as I can remember It is on my never delete list Highly recommend I am glad to see I was not the only fan not super enthused by the recent visual update At first I thought it was just me              If you havent played this before

From a dedicated fan at the top of the hard leaderboard Heads up Hex Heads the new look is very different New design reduces clarity and vividness One of the best aspects was the symbology in the design This has also been reduced Borders between tiles are less clear Desaturation in color and lack of borders between tiles make it confusing to recognize tiles at a glance Modules look more confusing Ill try getting used to it but I think Big Daddy may have made a negative impact on user experience with this update                 Version 30 look is a miss

Love the game have all expansions not the biggest fan of the new direction The dev has said in responses on his website that the change was due to licensing and was not within his control so for everyone who is upset at not having the option to switch he didnt have the option to let us switch That said I think this opens up a great avenue for new content including new boards themed after the various armies or even new themes or art for your favorite army give us something we want and let us keep throwing money at you           In fairness

This used to be one of my favorite games Now it is unplayable The new 30 update makes the different factions difficult to distinguish The look of this game was perfectly fine so I see no reason to change it They either need to switch back or add an option for classic look How much you want to bet it will be an in app purchase What happened big daddy did you just want to see what it was like to fail     I love this game But

Do not update to the latest patch New graphics are horrible This game deserves a 5 star rating but not until they change the graphics back     WARNING

I am really enjoying this game Takes a few games to get warmed up but it is filled with all kinds of strategic possibilities for victory Love the replayability and the different armies I am definitely considering buying the actual board game to play with friends                 Clever hex game

I personally dont mind the tile artwork as much The board however is pretty dull and lacks that professional and flashy look Looks like it was done in MS paint But thats besides the point In the physical board game 30 added an extended board size option for 4 players The bigger map made the game much more strategic IMO but if you didnt like it dont use it The option is nice though Id love for you to add that along with the other variants youve published in your board games such as Duel           Art is we but needs larger board

Definitely try this out Itll surprise you Inapp purchases are minimal nobody can pay2win their way to the top lets hope it stays that way                 Very Promising

Excellent game for some strategic match ups without constantly pouring money away for powerups                 Great game

Yes this game is one of the greats on here I never get bored and they keep adding new armies which is so cool because it mixes up the game play very well its part strategy part luck because U are given three cards from UR deck to choose from and U have to discard one of them kinda like poker so there is no ultimate win to this game and no matter how good you are if you dont get the right cards or choose them correctly you can lose pretty quickly Id also compare this game to hearthstone                 The future chess board game

Before this latest visual upgrade it was easily 5 stars in my book Ive been addicted to this game for over a year Have played it compulsively But now sad to say Im so totally turned off that Im moving on This is no longer the game I paid for Doesnt seem right     No longer the game I paid for

I love this game After playing it on our phones my family bought the actual board game                 Great game

Great variety and replay value especially once you start adding in the other inapp purchased armies They really do all have a different feel to them and Im enjoying playing as each of them beating every army on each difficulty Plus for those who are acheivementdriven there are a TON of acheivements to earn in the game center                 Great Strategy Title

Just as my title suggests Try this game You can pick it up and play anywhere Totally recommend                 Awesome strategical combat

I do not like the 30 look It is much harder to recognize pieces and their abilities The game design is otherwise excellent The online play works mostly but has many problems with chat and notifications           30 look is worse

A game like chess but with sci fi and superhero styling Its depth of play is very good online play excellent but a bit spotty for small population of players all in all great game play nice balance betw armies A fault new armies are a bit expensive and must be bought in order to stay competitive Games true cost is in the 610 range to get it up and really running Worst music and sound effects of any game I know Otherwise very highly recommended              Great game

Fantastic game and ports amazingly well to iOS Plays smoothly and the graphicsvisuals make for a great atmosphere Computer AI is impressive and being able to play against a diff number of opponents at different Ai levels makes it a GREAT solitaire game An absolute steal for any gamer                 WELL worth it

Requires a 3rd party account to play Registering for an account is not intuitive nor are the instructions in game        Requires 3rd party account

Im the opposite I didnt care for the old look Too many colors looked like a coloring book This look is slick subtle but with style Quit playing before partly because I didnt care for the layout and I think the AI cheats but I like this look so much Im going to get back into it And when are the real expansions not just armies coming out                 Quite the Contrary

Ive wanted something that feels like FalloutWasteland for quite some time and this is it Also a wonderfully deep turnbased strategy game I stayed away for a while because it looked unexciting in screenshots aside from the sharp 2D board game art and fonts Dont worry your imagination will pick up the slack or youll be too distracted placing your tiles in the perfect strategy to destroy your opponent                 Scratches lots of itches

Great game with a wealth of tactical depth Play it                 Worth It

Incredible depth and replayability every faction has a completely different style but they are well balanced                 Excellent strategy boardgame

This was the first game I bought when I got on iOS and three years later Im still playing it Great game and easy to play on an iPhone or iPad UI is perfect all bugs have been worked out lots of variation great online play too                 So good

excellent online multiplayer playing the computer AI is fun too expansion packs well worth it                 awesome game

No its not better than the actual board game In my opinion NOTHING beats playing around the table with your friends However this app is great Very true to the board game without the headache of resolving battles If you havent played the game its like chess on steroids Each player sets their strategies by pointing guns at each other until someone decides to battle then all hell breaks loose Thats the game in a nutshell Great game                 Better than the board game

Love board games This is one of the best iOS games I prefer the new art                 Great

This is the best strategy game Ive ever bought as an iPhone app Its a tad pricey especially if you get all the extra armies but Ive spent more hours with this game than any other on my phone Neat concept The scenarios are virtually limitless                 Huge Replayability

Amazing game but this graphical update is horrible Please revert back to the original aesthetics     Graphical Overhaul

This game is addictive and loads of fun but the app is quite buggy It almost always freezes up multiple times per match and Ill have to force close the app The good thing is you can resume right where you left off but its quite annoying and I hope it gets fixed It usually happens when Im going back and forth from information mode Being able to read what each tile does and regular mode Playing tiles discarding etc              Amazing but buggy

Loving it                 Still fun

Great game The newest update changing the look of the game is a step backward I still give the game five stars and hope they will give the option of returning to the old game look                 Not a fan of the new look

Played the demo first which did lock up occasionally but am really enjoying the full game No lockups so far Great game for the small screen                 Great game for the phone

This game is a must play for those that love to devise strategies That being said however the game has been updated with a new look I personally like the old look better due to the new look having less saturation and making discerning different armies harder                 Best strategy game ever

Great strategy game with online multiplayer This rocks Great update                 Fantastic

I have had this game on my iPad for years and it is still one of my favorites but I am very unhappy with the redesign The developers should have made the installation of the new board and tile set optional or even an inapp purchase rather than an automatic update The monochromatic board is dull and the heightened similarity of the pieces make them difficult to recognize quickly as the board fills up The numbering on the base pieces almost completely obscures the identification of the army The armored edges of army pieces are much obscured and the big print feel of the design makes melee and range facing indicators seem cluttered In my opinion the game has become much less enjoyable to play           Great game terrible update
