When you first start attempting to navigate through your settlement and armies for your managing needs I will warn you that you'll likely want to yank your hair out and start yelling things such as, but not limited to, "HOW THE HECK DO I GET TO _. There is a learning curve with this, biggest one in this version of the game. You have so many options on what buildings to build, units to build, taxes and population management, what shrine you want to main in that city, and so on. As your empire grows you have so many towns to manage and monitor. Settlement Management - Oh dear lord I was scared to death of this part. With a small screen it can be finicky at times getting an exact stopping point, but the option to cancel and remap helps a great deal. Then an icon appears giving you the option to confirm. You select the unit(s) that you wish to move, drag them to where you want them or where you want the action to take place. World Map Controls - Again, straight forward. This again is a learning curve, but once I adjusted it was smooth sailing to conquer my foes. Occasionally I find myself accidentally sending the unit I just moved, positioned, or ordered as well as the 2nd unit I wanted to control. The thing to get used to is un-selecting units when you're done with them.

There's a small line menu at the bottom with various hot keys, much like the bottom right tray of the PC version. you tap the unit (as if you clicked on it via mouse) and you can move it around. Well worth it though.īattlefield Controls - The developers made things very straight forward. The tutorial is very helpful, but rather bothersome with how slow it goes. After I adjusted to the controls and how things were set up I began to fully appreciate how the developers made things as painless as possible. But I relaxed and realized that it's not a bad set up, just different. I wont lie, when I first played the game I was rather frustrated with the controls and how the game was set up. Not a huge deal, and I'm being rather picky when I mention it. I use 'smoothness' lightly since, well, its 4x. The only thing I will mention is I did notice a lack of 'smoothness' if you will during the 4x speed during battles with a lot of action going on and rendering (inside a city). I did not notice any noticeable slowness or lag, which was surprising. I played a few battles in campaign and also historical battles to see how things held up. My next concern was if the mass amounts of troops and characters would slow down the phone or eat through the battery life.
I actually installed the Gold Edition of ROME: Total War on STEAM and have been playing it for about 70+ hours in the last few weeks. I was absolutely amazed when I started the game and everything looked identical, if not better, than what the PC version looks like. I will also go into some things that I really liked regarding the application and things that I learned that may be helpful that I saw others had issues with when I looked at the reviews on the App Store. But I am going to overview the controls and how they managed to make the game playable using one small screen for everything (opposed to the keyboard and mouse). In this review I will not go into the game itself exactly (since to be honest, its just about a direct import). I saw plenty for the iPad versions but I wanted to see how it was with a much smaller device. I found a lack of reviews for the game on the iPhone X (or XS). I was curious as to if the game would run as well as I hoped for the price. The cost was $9.99 and I was apprehensive at first in purchasing it. I recently purchased ROME: Total War for the iPhone X.
