About Tactics of the Generals
Tactics of the Generals brings the classic Filipino strategy game "Game of
the Generals" to your phone or tablet - pure hidden-information warfare,
no luck, no dice, just outsmarting your opponent.
HOW IT WORKS
Command an army of 21 pieces - from your 5-Star General down to Privates,
Spies, and your Flag - secretly arranged on an 8x9 battlefield. Your
opponent's ranks are hidden until the moment your pieces clash. Win the
challenge and advance; lose it and that piece is gone. Capture the enemy
Flag, or sneak your own Flag safely to their back row, to win the war.
A SMARTER AI OPPONENT
This isn't a random-move bot. The AI actually remembers every rank it has
seen revealed in combat, avoids officers it knows will beat it, hunts down
your generals once they're exposed (especially with its Spies), and pulls
pieces back to defend its own Flag the moment it's threatened. Every match
plays out differently.
FEATURES
- Full classic ruleset: rank hierarchy, Spy vs. Private upsets, mutual
eliminations, and both Flag-capture and Flag-infiltration win conditions
- Rank insignia icons for every piece, so you can tell your army apart
at a glance
- Ambient battle music and sound effects
- Smooth play in both portrait and landscape, tuned for phones and tablets
of any aspect ratio
- Auto-Place for quick setup, or arrange your own formation piece by piece
- One-time Remove Ads upgrade - pay once, ad-free forever
No internet connection required. No in-app currency, no timers, no pay-to-
win mechanics - just you, the board, and an opponent who's actually paying
attention.
Outsmart the enemy. Protect your Flag. Lead your Generals to victory.
