Ratings and Reviews

I tried to login in to my i civics account in my I pad but every time I tried it did not work
The reviews are just-
Okay, this is a great game, and I need to say that, even though I feel like it should be obvious. I would also like to say that I have won every time I play, wether federalist or anti-federalist. It’s really not that difficult. Next, don’t listen to the review that talks about how federalists need 9 states and anti-federalists only need 5. This reflects history. If it was any other way, it would be inaccurate. Also, there are less anti-federalist tokens, which makes gameplay a little harder. Lastly, on the subject of the opponent, I think that it is much more fair than you make it out to be. Yes, the opponent creates a pamphlet every turn, but it only affects one state. You can affect probably about 5 or more if you find the right position. I would give this app four stars, but the average rating really needs to raised higher.
Underrated
The majority rating is one star. But this game is a great game. Nonsense. You should get this game. It’s drawing style is great and it is honestly very satisfying, especially the part where all those papers fall to the ground. Get this game. Also, despite people say it’s ‘impossible to win’ because the opponent gets to throw around all the papers every round and you only get to once a turn. That’s a lie. It’s very easy and very possible to win either way. Also, for the people who say the free play and historical game mode have no difference, the Historical Game Mode is the original conditions from real life. In the Free Play game mode, the conditions of each state are random, unlike Historical.
