Magnifico 'Da Vinci’s Art of War' is a popular region-based board game where the ultimate goal is to dominate 16^th century Europe. Now you can play it on the iPad!

Players are faced with tough economic and military decisions as they earn Victory Points and attempt to outbid opponents at the auction and get their hands on Leonardo Da Vinci’s most powerful war machines. Every Victory Point has to be earned by careful placement of your troops, construction of fortifications, and invasion of bordering regions. Each new turn brings a chance to acquire Da Vinci’s precious projects and get the upper hand over your opponents.

Score: 4.5/5 This is a fun, leisurely war/strategy game. I really like the game and this will be one that I keep on the iPad. It takes a very different approach, which is very refreshing. If you enjoy strategy games, I recommend you give Da Vincis Art of War for the iPad a look.

Review at the Wargamer
"It deserves to be a great success and at $4.99 is good value. My recommendation is that if you like Risk style boardgames you should by this now; heck, if you generally like boardgames or similar just buy it anyway you wont regret it."
