The strategy game Rome: Total War – Alexander, already available for iPad, is now out for iPhone and Android.
It promises that the iPhone version will ‘deliver the full experience of the desktop version’…
The game hit the App Store on October 24.
The original windows version of Rome: Total War was developed by Creative Assembly and became one of the most successful PC games of all time. Feral Interactive ported it to iPad back in 2017 as a full version and is now bringing it to the iPhone.
Feral says that it will be a paid-for game with no in-app purchases. Priced at $4.99, it will be free for anyone who already bought the iPad version.
A century before the events of ROME: Total War, Alexander ascends the Macedonian throne and embarks upon an audacious campaign to conquer the all-powerful Persian Empire. Players will lead their armies to unify the Greek city states, and then march across Central Asia, routing all enemies along the way, before establishing their legend as Alexander the Great, the most remarkable general of classical civilisation.
For players who have mastered ROME and Barbarian Invasion, Alexander provides the ultimate test of their skills.
It will require iOS 12 or newer and runs on all iPhones from the 5s onward, as well as the 6th generation iPod touch.
Alexander was originally sold as a downloadable expansion pack for the PC game, and was generally well-received, though reviewers did note that it was limited in comparison to the original.
