This historically-based game was released on October 14th, 2014 and has soared to extreme heights after Apple chose to remove it. Steam has even featured the game on the front page, and they have also given it a spot on the top 50 games on Steam. Many users have expressed fondness of the game, comparing it to Sid Meier’s Gettysburg, and that the game has attributes that make it enjoyable, such as fantastic map views and A.I movement. The graphics leave a bit more to be desired, but this war game has earned a solid four stars.
The outrage!
Many users on Steam have expressed their emotions about the removal of the game from the App Store, and they’re full of rage. Quite a few believe it’s horrendous to remove a game based on its historical accuracy, and that these actions will lead to more serious repercussions in the future.
Based on the feedback I’ve received from my previous article about the App Store’s removal, I can say it’s very concise with the gamers on Steam. Some GameSkinny writers and viewers such as TheSoapbox Lord also find it alarming.
What lies ahead for Ultimate General?
It’s quite unclear at this time whether the game will remain available on Steam, or if it will return to the App Store. For now, you can purchase it on Steam for $15.
