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
Good strategy Game
A very good game. I used to play this board game when i was in my teens :) when i found it on iphone, i immediately downloaded. I must say that developer of this game must add some more AI, i can defeat easily now and add online play option :)
No interest
This game have no interest. That's a perfect exemple of why apps should have a "money back" function or "trial period" cause I bought it 10mn ago to uninstall it now for ever.
If you are looking for good strategy games, have a look to some Strategery, Risk, Conquest Europe, etc... But let "the general" or you will have this feeling to have wasted money in your day :-(
In case you really, really, really want to spend your money in that game : it's not buggy, sounds are good (1 sound which repeat each 2 seconds, but good), and you have a good touch response, it's fast, not laggy.
So after that don't come crying "I want my money back", you had my comment before buying, so "try" it at you own risks.
Thanks for reading.
My Pro/Con
Pro: Game is as promised. No surprises or disappointments in functionality. AI is decent.
Con: A little tough to pick up and move pieces. Sounds and visuals don't fit the iPhone "look & feel". AI can be a little slow in decision making.
