Archon:Conquest

Game keeps crashing in 9.1. NEEDS an update please!

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME <br/>This app is not only AWESOME, but it combines two types of games (action and strategy) so smoothly u cant help but love it. <br/>MUST. BUY. NOW!!!!

The game itself is great fun. Actually more than the original I remember playing on my C64. The artwork is great, and I enjoy the minor storyline to the game.<br/><br/>For those who have never played the game think something of a mix between Chess and Gladiator combat. You move similar to chess pieces, but when you attack something you go into a combat mode where your piece has different abilities and levels / health, etc. It is a lot of fun.<br/><br/>The iPhone addition of using tilt for control is pretty neat, I like the idea. The implementation needs a little work though as it is very hard to control your character when they are moving an entire &quot;block&quot; at a time using the tilt. There is really no way to correct once you go slightly too far. <br/><br/>You don't have to use the Tilt, you can use the thumb controller on the left of the screen, but I actually found that even harder to control. It felt more like it lagged 2-3 seconds behind when I moved to when I saw the move on the screen.<br/>

Can't even get into the game. Waste of space.

This is not a strategy game because you can't skip moving, so it turns into a twitch game where you inevitably get drawn into a battle with bad odds and you get one-shotted. Who thought that was fun! Has promise though.

This is a great classic game!!

Archon 2 for ipod! Get on this soon.

Great gamplay controls are a little touchy but still alot of fun.
