    Pretty good reviews. And to have it in my pocket seems like a great deal for $5. Thanks for the link Havelcek.

    Yeap... Maybe it was an accidental release for some hours yesterday. Today nobody can find it on their local stores. The scenarios are that we will see it on the next hours (normal Wednesday release schedule) or in some weeks if there is more things for the dev to do and yesterday was just a forgotten date they had schedule sometime back.

    I'm glad they are useful to someone! Hopefully they'll lead you towards (or away from) the right games ;)

    And, hmm, I suppose... this could still be worth yer time if you are looking for something VERY approachable and shallow that still lies within the TBS spectrum. But then, I'd rather wait for X-Mercs* (freemium XCOM-like), it's f2p:ness notwithstanding. For me, Deathwatch/Warhammer Quest for iOS is as TBS-casual as I go and still have fun.

    Or if the atmosphere and theme appeals, then this is nearly yer only choice. It is only because Braveland: Tortuga exists that I can say that's it's not like we've many pirate-themed turn-based strategy games to choose between ;)

    * Was in the alpha/beta. Quite fun, in spite of IAP currencies aplenty and the blatant, immersion-breaking sexism. (Base building is typically clashofclansy, but the combat mechanics are sometimes not far behind XCOM - though maps have no elevation, are much smaller, and have far less tactical opportunities - and the character progression mechanics are actually more varied and open-ended than XCOM.

    From what I gather the game was officially released but pulled after a game breaking bug was reported via their FB. They launched on Android, Steam too.

    Yeah, me too, but usually when this happens, I never see them again.

    Yep, lack of feedback from a developer gives a very negative impression.

    The Aussie store also just tells me it is only available in the US.
    Very frustrating.
