Description
In this version of the classic board game you lead your troops into battle against the computer opponent in a race to capture your enemy's flag before he gets yours. Initially you can't see how the enemy has positioned his troops and he can't see yours which gives ample opportunity for bluffing and deception from both sides.
"4 out of 5. We recommend the program to board game lovers." - Download.com
"It's like chess spliced with Minesweeper and Guess Who. Bearing in mind how important subterfuge and bluffing are in the original game, the silicon opponents provided are remarkably sharp." - EuroGamer.com

Ratings and Reviews
A classic game
A great game. Highly recommended if you like strategy board games. Known as Stratego as a board game. I'm not sure if it's an official port, but it works well. The playing pieces are a little small, but it's easy enough. Some type of difficulty level would be good, but it's a fun game. $4.99 is a little high, but if you like the game, then it's not too bad.
Rough outline: You arrange your little pieces and then try to capture the enemy flag. There are immoveable bombs & army ranked pieces, such as a general, captains, scouts etc. However, you can't see where the opposition's pieces are. They are only revealed when you try to take one of them (but then are hidden again).
A great game. Easily 4 out of 5.
Well done!!
Very easy to use and is a good conversion from the board game. I really like the set up and board layout options. It would be nice to have the recovery option as well (where up to two pieces can be recovered per game each time a piece reaches the other side of the board). Recovery adds a whole new dimension to the game. Love your work though. :)
Good app
Really good although the AL is to easy and you should be able to pick the difficulty
another thing is its a bit hard to pick the exact peice you want
REALLY GOOD APP
Well done
