I really do wish there was an offline mode but oh well, I'm willing to give it a try.

But man this game is huge! I thought it'd be small for a 2d turn based game. I wonder what all that size is for..

Yeah, basically a game that puts your life on hold for hours. You should't even be able to pee. I'm getting a bit tired of the impatient players that fill the chat with stuff like "Hurry! Faster! Come on! Give up if you're not gonna play!" Ffs, I AM playing. Everyone just needs to chill.

Anyway, I keep getting errors when I try to submit my turn. Luckily, my moves get saved, but it's still annoying since I need to reload the game to re-submit.

How much different are the other teams? If I understand correctly the units is basically the same, except for one special unit. Is that alone worth getting the other teams for?

As said before, a single player mode would be extremely difficult to make an appropriate AI for. If you mean local mode, pass'n'play is a local offline game you can play with friends etc by passing around your device.

As for the size, it is a very smooth universal and iPhone 4S+ iPad 3 retina compatible game.

The teams indeed only differ in appearance and the special unit. Except, the units do change playing style around a bit. Additionally, with the character pack you buy, you also get the two associated maps which you can select in Friendly Matches and Pass'n'Play.

I honestly recommend the Uber pack. I mean, the game right now is completely 100% with no ads etc either, and it is great value for all the teams and future ones added with future updates.

I'm not sure at this stage. But it is worth getting to do right by some developers who are doing right by you. So long as you're enjoying the game of course.

By the way, folks who don't mind/prefer slow(er) games, feel free to invite me as well.

Well it's worth supporting the devs bringing an awesome online multiplayer game to the iPhone and iPad. It's darn cheap anyways to get the all-packs IAP. And while supporting the devs you even get different teams to play.
If you like the game, is there really a question of buying the IAP?

I'm seeing snipers as more of a defensive unit. What I've been doing is drawing out opponents runners with one of mine sitting in the middle of no where waiting for it to pounce. Occasionally I'll get lucky and it will draw out something bigger!

Then BAM. They didn't even see it coming.

I just bought them... Uber pack gives you everything: all teams and all maps and all future packs too, so I think is really worth it. Now I have more variety

Still haven't played them. Something broken in my brain saying cuddly + deadly = too creepy for me.

I'll stick to my fish pirates and multi-armed robots for now.
