Strategy is one of the best genres of games that are playable on mobile phones. But the choice of tactics games is unfortunately not so big as I would wish me.
Perhaps because of that reason I was very pleased when I discovered the game „Revival“.
This is a strategy game, where you take the role of an emissary of a well-developed of the seven races. You will be sent to the one of the many planets of a galaxy, in order to build a civilization there. Each planet consists of several types of zones. Each zone type hides different types of resources. The most important are: gold, iron and food. Of course, you should be able to manage these resources as efficiently as possible like in any other game of this type. The profit of resources can be accelerated by constructing of appropriated buildings at certain locations. Depending on the the evolution progress, the cities will be greater, the number of units increase in a geometric progression, making it very difficult to continue playing the role of the leader. You will always need more time to make a few new steps. I find this very positive, because you will need much time to finish all missions. The fun of the game goes not so fast away, like in some other games of the case.
The only thing that disappointed me in the game was the graphics. This is really primitive and although the graphics in the strategy games plays a subordinate role, I would wish me a bit more for this game.
