If you enjoy Risk, Carcassonne, Go, Stratego, or even Uno or Solitaire, you will love the “easy-to-learn, hard-to-master” fun of this game. @ 148 Apps: “It’s addicting, a pleasure to play, and has earned a permanent spot on my device.” @ App Advice: “It is heavy on strategy, but light on rules... you will be guaranteed endless amounts of fun.” @ Pocket Tactics: “Totems manages to challenge some of the basic assumptions of strategy gaming with it’s all-or-nothing take on territory control, while still being simple enough to learn in an afternoon. For that alone, it deserves to plant its standard on your iDevice’s shores.” Score: 5 of 5! @ App Store: Featured by Apple in "Best New Games!" GAME DESCRIPTION The game design is derived from the world-famous “4-Color Map Theorem”. The randomness of the totems in your ‘hand’, the changing colors of the territories, the variety of the maps, and the cleverness of your opponents will all conspire to make each turn a fun and interesting challenge. The object of the game is to place carved animal pieces (totems) on the map in order to claim territories. Each turn you will place matching totems on adjacent territories to expand your control of the map. The player who conquers the most territories when the map is full, wins. A game of Totems can be finished super-quickly or slowly, depending on your skills and your approach.

Appletini Well-Known Member Jan 8, 2011 2,564 0 0 Ankh-Morpork #3 Appletini, Aug 14, 2013 Thanks for that; I'll repost the info here. Each of the new maps has the same number of territories as one of the existing game boards: Labyrinth has 16 territories, Australia 24, Africa 36, and Fjords 48. To access the new maps you can either simply pay $1 for each, or beat a number of different challenges on the map to which it is tied. For example, one of the challenges required to unlock Australia is to totally dominate Volcano Island and win with only your own colour left on the map. Some of the challenges can be tricky (challenging, one might say), but I finished all of them within two hours, so I'd say there's no real need to fork out unless you're impatient. mrbiggles Well-Known Member Jul 3, 2012 3,691 0 0 Like retired USA #4 mrbiggles, Aug 15, 2013 Sounds like: Lux Touch or Lux USA eugenemcardle Well-Known Member May 21, 2013 357 9 18 Retired, Math/Science Teacher, Air Force Electron Redcliffe Queensland Australia #5 eugenemcardle, Aug 15, 2013 Interesting twist on the usual risk type games.
