But what's with the different versions on the App Store? Royce Well-Known Member Mar 22, 2011 4,239 179 63 #3 Royce, May 6, 2013 There are universal, iPad only, and lite versions. Or did you mean what's with the different developers making their own versions of this? Because I don't know, but there are like 3 or more devs who all have different iOS games based off the same old school game. mrbiggles Well-Known Member Jul 3, 2012 3,691 0 0 Like retired USA #4 mrbiggles, May 6, 2013 looks like one is made for pocket and other is IPAD specific. just got the pocket vers using GE for free. so will see if its 2x ipad etc. yes other version; north vs south etc Aventador Well-Known Member Jan 16, 2013 933 1 0 Student Croatia #5 Aventador, May 6, 2013 Last edited: May 6, 2013 iPad version is 1.99 $ currently ; even though it's a port of old game and all, stills looks too weak on strategy part to me ...
