_____________ PRESS REVIEWS _____________

"What better subject for a French studio to make a strategy game about than the US civil war? This remake puts a modern spin on the classic 1990 tactical title."
www.ign.com

“This game is a mix of Age of Empires and the Oregon Trail, but with a heck of a lot more action.”
“[…] See for yourself how great this iPhone/iPad game is ! ”
www.1greatapp.com

“A revival in the truest sense, Bluecoats keeps the best elements of the original, replaces parts that begged for overhaul, and wraps the altered formula in a much prettier package. If I had to choose one version to show off as an example of the true potential of genre mashups, it would undoubtedly be this one.”
“If you’re generally a fan of strategy games and have at least a passing interest in action, you’ll find lots to love in Bluecoats’ three-way mashup. The game’s greatest failing is simply that it lets you jump in on normal difficulty — it’s utterly clear that you need to move up the challenge ladder starting from the very bottom.”

“For small sessions it does a solid job of making you think on your feet. The iOS version makes far more sense to buy than the PC, and iPad owners will probably get the best out of it. The mini games certainly make for an unusually mixed strategy experience, just make sure not to get too good at the shooting and turn the difficulty up!”

Pros and cons of The Bluecoats - North vs South FREE app for iPhone and iPad

The Bluecoats - North vs South FREE app good for

Dont get me wrong this game is very fun with real time strategy and different ways to fight but the battles get very dull and boring after a while
Cool game I like it has the Civil War settings and good graphics
Strategy game with mini-games. Can play as Union or Confederacy.
Great game almost the same game that I played on my Nes when I was a kid
Just got my old NES going and found the old game for it! This is way better!!!!
Love this game I had it on the NES I was hoping to get it on my xbox but couldnt find it. But this will do. So much fun a good way to kill time. Wish their where more games like this. Love it. Did I say I love it well I do. Great old school game

Some bad moments

The game has a number of different play module, which are actually rather interesting, however the game is incredibly slow and you only get to actually do anything about 50% the time. Even with the paid version. It could be made into a nice game, but for now its pretty much unplayable
Slow, boring, and with terrible fight scenes, Id rather play the original Atari ST Version on an emulator.
This game is easy to learn, highly addictive, with cool graphics. Just wish there more more battle scenarios on the full version.
North VS south had been on hiatus since the NES days, in glad to see it back
I remember playing it on my pic long long time ago and I never thought I will play it again. Great game
Like how you get to play different battles and play minigames.
