What Reviewers are Saying:
“Not only does Drive on Moscow match the deft, beguiling presentation of its predecessor, but nearly every decision has the heft of a Soviet hammer.” - Pocket Tactics
“…if you liked Battle of the Bulge, this is about as must-have as it gets for you.” - Touch Arcade
“The ultimate question isn’t whether Drive on Moscow is the most realistic war game of the Moscow campaign, but rather whether it teaches you something about history, allows you to have fun and makes the experience convenient. Where the Germans failed to take Moscow, Drive on Moscow succeeds as a game.” – War is Boring
“This sequel is just as deep and engrossing as the original” - Pocket Gamer
"Drive on Moscow is in so many ways the ultimate example of strategy gaming, because it's one of the few that requires genuine military strategy of its players in order for them to succeed." - Digitally Downloaded
"Für Liebhaber von Wargames geht kein Weg an diesem Schmuckstück vorbei, zumal man sich auch online wunderbar duellieren kann." - 4Players.de

Customer Reviews
OK, but...
First of all, let me say I am quite grateful that someone actually made this game, or games of this genre for the iPad.
That being said, this game simply does not work. If you are of the school that says that you should be roughly able to duplicate what happened historically. You can't do that in this game. Basically to be successful, you have to sledge-hammer your way through the Soviet lines, which is not what Army Group Centre was doing at that stage of the war.
The areas are too small. Armour does not move far enough. What made the Germans almost successful was the ability to exploit breakthroughs with their tanks and move swiftly over long distances, and encircle large bodies of troops. The exact same tactics the Soviets and Americans used later in the war. This is more like playing World War I battles.
Love it
I loved the battle of the bulge and this one in my opinion is just as good and if not better. I love these games and this series needs to start making more in my opinion. I'm excited for the next. But this game is for history buffs fr. It's a little pricy. No doubt about that. But I think it's worth it. But seriously... The price is a little rough
Addicted
I've been playing this game for months now. It's so dang good - really wish they'd update with more challenges or create a sequel! Absolutely brilliant.
