    Definitely worth picking up for a buck if you're into strategy type games.

    Are future chapters supposed to be included or separate IAP? If its all part of the one time purchase then I may be down for this. The TA plays made this look fun.

    It's live. Not sure if I'll get it though. Ah, who am I kidding. I'll probably get it just to keep in my backlog.

    They will be expansions separately, which is more than fair. You're not getting a cut down game, they will be expanding on the base content.

    So the new chapter will be IAP? I'll just skip the game then. Not worth my time since I don't purchase IAP. No biggie though, got plenty to play.

    Yup, just picked it up myself. At least for 99 cents I'm getting a turn based (I think) strategy game, rather than a hit or miss casual game. The worst that can happen is I'll hate the game but enjoy reading the instructions.

    I used to keep The instruction manual for Falcon 3.0 next to my toilet. I LOVE instruction manuals. Well, big meaty ones.

    Yeah, but...people paid full price for what it already has. To each their own, I know...I'm not really a fan of serialised content because the appsize tends to grow whether or not you purchase the iaps. And I feel better buying seperate apps than iaps.

    I don't normally weigh in on this kind of stuff (my real life has enough drama;)), but seriously, if they never add anything to this, it is easily one of the best dollars you will ever spend...

    You could not buy any future IAPs and still have one of the best experiences I've had on any platform in this game's present form.

    You and I have similar feelings on IAP, but I would hate to have you miss this... this game is so satisfying I am actually taking my time to make the experience last a bit longer.

    Just puttin' it out there.:eek:;):D

    If you ask me, with the amount of choice we have for games these days, missing one is nobody's loss. We can afford to be as picky as we want because a few days later, new games come along.

    Third. (Actually fourth including DBC but third rhymes better.)

    This is one of my best iOS experiences. This game alone is worth a dollar. And I have no problem paying for additional content, developers have to feed their families too. I'd rather see that than freemium crap. And even if you don't buy the extra content, a dollar for this stealth game is a steal. But hey, it's not for everyone.
