It's simple to pick up, and from the moment you start, you'll be learning and improving -- building your skills, learning new strategies, and ranking up on the single player ladder. And as you do, the game evolves with you, providing a worthy challenge every time. Militia also features procedurally generated levels so the challenge stays fresh. In Militia, you are the leader of a small troop of warriors, mages and cavalry and attempt to rout the local marauding banditry by dispatching their captains. Gameplay is turn based; on your turn you can issue one command to each of your units, and then the enemies each move on their turn according to strict and transparent movement rules. NOTE: Includes Dark World expansion content for free (The Dark World is a separate and advanced game mode with its own heroes, enemies and ladder). "[Militia] might be the best single player strategy game I've played this year." -Keith Burgun (Lead designer of Auro, Dinofarm Games) "Militia is potentially a true star for strategy gamers." - PlayPlayFun "Really digging this so far. It's like a party-based Hoplite." - IndieGameHunt (Game Jolt editor) "It's like chess.

Checking them out now. esty8nine Well-Known Member Dec 21, 2013 1,044 0 0 #5 esty8nine, Mar 23, 2017 FINALLY !! I beeen bugging the dev for this, some of the most friendly awesome Devs I ever seen and all there games are amazing on pc, yesssss Ijipop Well-Known Member Jul 25, 2012 557 268 63 #6 Ijipop, Mar 24, 2017 Only launched the game. Will try and leave some imps tomorrow. Only thing I can say is that I can't flip the screen. And that bugs me. Sash-O Well-Known Member Feb 13, 2015 1,570 0 0 Germany #7 Sash-O, Mar 24, 2017 Looks like my type of game! Discostallion Member Sep 13, 2016 18 0 0 #8 Discostallion, Mar 24, 2017 This was looking like something I'd dig so I picked it up. I've played about an hour or so, & it's been really good. Fans of abstract strategy games like Hoplite & Auro will be happy with this one. Only problem I've had is figuring out how the teleporting wizard works. I know there is a logic to it, but I just tap at the screen & cross my fingers. Anyone here that can explain it better than the tutorial? jmasin Active Member Jun 2, 2012 27 0 1 Architect #9 jmasin, Mar 24, 2017 I haven't find any use for the teleporting wizard, but this is how he works: move first (or stay) and teleport. Actually it's not teleporting, it's switching positions. And not any positions you want, it only switch one square with the opposite one. Being the opposite, the one mirrored trough the center of the table. (Odd symmetry is the term, I think). Anyway, if you keep the finger on the squares, you can see witch two squares are being switched. Discostallion Member Sep 13, 2016 18 0 0 #10 Discostallion, Mar 24, 2017 Thanks for the help. I think that the wiz's ability to reposition an ally and refresh it's movement/attack will be super useful once I fully wrap my head around the mechanics.

Shortdog5150 Well-Known Member Jun 18, 2015 48 7 8 Male #14 Shortdog5150, Mar 24, 2017 Other Game Ports Are you planning on porting your other 3 games to iOS? Any plans for multiplayer? BrainGoodGames Active Member Mar 24, 2017 36 7 8 #15 BrainGoodGames, Mar 24, 2017 @sugimulm If you don't close your app you'll be able to carry on from where you left off. Even if you do though, matches frequently take 5 minutes or less, so it won't be a big loss! BrainGoodGames Active Member Mar 24, 2017 36 7 8 #16 BrainGoodGames, Mar 24, 2017 @Shortdog this is a bit of an experiment to see what the response is like to BrainGoodGames on iOS! I would love to port more of them in the future if it's something you guys are interested in. No current plans for multiplayer. BrainGoodGames Active Member Mar 24, 2017 36 7 8 #17 BrainGoodGames, Mar 24, 2017 Portrait Mode Question: is a portrait-mode option something that is important for you?

Misguided Well-Known Member Jan 27, 2009 2,346 19 38 #19 Misguided, Mar 24, 2017 I prefer landscape (and most games that are portrait-only I never buy, such as Auro) but many prefer portrait and having options is always best if it is feasible from a development standpoint. Roleki Well-Known Member Aug 11, 2012 432 0 0 #20 Roleki, Mar 24, 2017 I'm one of those who prefer portrait - it can tip the scales when I am on the fence about a game.
