Hoplite App Reviews

Love this game. Everytime you lose, you know its your own fault. The game is never unfair. Plus no in-app purchases, which is fantastic. My only feedback is to go back to the harder daily challenges, or at least make them available too! So much more fun than these new easier ones.

This game is a simple yet challenging surprise. It is well worth the money and offers an interesting version of a turn-based combat game. It plays well on both iPad and iPhone.

Super dope game. Congratulations!

Why does a new version delete my high scores!? Otherwise a great (and addictive) game.

strategy game.

A simple but fun game. Innovative. The rules are easy but it gradually becomes harder level by level sucking you in. Fun mechanics. Short games are easy to play multiple times in one setting. Achievements give you some longer term goals. More of a strategy game than everything, this is not a simulation or a role playing game. Highly recommended.

A great game that requires the quick tutorial provided, dont skip it! Once you learn the mechanics the game is an awesome challenge. I just wish there was more of a quest mode with more rewards as you progress, unlockables. I hate most games these days, this one is a gem. Get it.

I cant stop playing. The depth is really good once you are familiar with the move patterns of everyone

This is an excellent little game with a great deal of depth. The learning curve is a bit steep, but the game is very fair in its difficulty. Well worth taking some time to learn the ropes.

Ive taken to aborting games because the computer has me making moves I did NOT initiate. Everyone tests to see what the best move will be. Well, the computer arbitrarily decides to make one of those moves for real, literally as I press another spot. This game has been seeking an overhaul for some time. Its lure is weakening. Who can afford the time to play a whole game and then have the computer err on a crucial move? If I didnt trust programmers the way I do (unveiled sarcasm) I would think this is all a plot to give the computer an even larger edge.

I love this game! Its a turn-based dungeon battle. The rules are simple, but the game is randomized so that every game is different. You learn from every game, and it never gets old. Your game achievements actually unlock new possible skills! The legacy graphics option is fun too, dont miss that. Great fun, get it. My only (minor) complaint, in case the developer is reading: Id really like to see my health while Im in the temple screen. It can be hard to remember how much damage I took in the last round.

One of the best iPhone games out there. So satisfying.

Strategy, board game, turn-based, amazing little game. Well worth the money!!! And I love that there are no in-app purchases.

Time for an adjective dump: highly addictive, strategic, fast-paced, turn-based roguelike dungeon crawler with surprising depth. I recommend turning on swipe controls.

Very good "bite-sized" strategy game. The scale of the game is not huge, and thats part of its appeal. The simpler graphics are also a part of its appeal ( retro and more modern). When you do end up getting the fleece you feel youve accomplished a good battle run. The added options of more life, more energy, longer jumps, etc. are a nice addition to your strategy plans ( bonus -- they are IAP free). Well done!

I dont buy a lot of games and I cant remember the last time I rated a game, but this game is great. Easy to get into, quick, and super challenging. I get a little better each time I embark. This is the best game Ive downloaded in a while, highly recommended.

I didnt know what "rogue-like game" meant when I first played, but I cant find one now that compares to Hoplite. Fun the first time, and Ive come back time and time again to replay

When this was a featured in an article on Bloomberg under "Best one handed games to play on your commute" - I was intrigued. A game for adults that is featured on Bloomberg? And am I glad I bought it! It is a dungeon crawler and as you clear every level you have a choice to keep adding special abilities. The gameplay is fun and special powers keep the replay value. Dont let the basic graphics fool you. It is the ideal game for a quick 7 minute break before the conference call starts, or for an "after lunch" break before you head to your trading terminals. MUST BUY!!

This game is brilliant fun, but there is a crashing issue that has popped up for me recently and persisted even after reinstalling the app. I am on ios8 and iPhone 6. Be careful but if it works its a great game to pull out for 2 turns or for 1/2 an hour.

This is a pretty solid turn-based game. It will take you time to get good at it, which can be discouraging at first, but once you get the hang of it youll start to like it better. Its not a perfect strategy game, but it does what it does pretty well. Also, it has a fun challenge of the day mode that is shorter than the normal game where you start off with different varieties of power ups. This feature kind of saves the game for me, to be honest, as the longer game can take a good chunk of your time to get through. About 20-30 mins. Plus, its kind of annoying to have to start off for the very beginning every time.
