Neuroshima Hex

Great strategy game with online multiplayer. This rocks! Great update

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 2.5.2 version of NS in your time machine. If you don't the following doesn't work. Look for it somewhere back in April 2015. Look in the iTunes/mobile applications directory. It's 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 iTunes/mobile 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 2.5.2 into your iTunes/mobile 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 1-2 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. e.g., 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 piece….you can’t say “Hold it I haven’t finished” Ugh! 6. OK…a moan about pricing…You only get 4 different armies. I thought I was buying the complete game. The other 9 Armies are purchasable in game at USD1.99 per army. You don’t need them to enjoy the game, but the pricing is way off. USD9.99 for all would be reasonable. Otherwise a bundle of fun.

Amazing game but this graphical "update" is horrible. Please revert back to the original aesthetics.

Hi Great game, been playing for 4-5 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?

One of the best quick strategy games for the iPad
