Playdek, Inc.About this app
Developer Description
Card-driven strategy game set during the U.S. Secession Crisis of 1860
The country is on the verge of being torn apart so how will you act? Fort Sumter: The Secession Crisis is set during the events that led to the bombardment of Fort Sumter and the start of the American Civil War. The game takes the side of either a Unionist or Secessionist who must work to preserve the Union or follow the path to dissolve it.
Each player uses an area control mechanic to place, move, and remove political capital. The location of political capital determines who controls each of the four crisis dimensions - Political, Secession, Public Opinion, and Armaments. After three rounds of play, the game culminates in a Final Crisis confrontation.

Fort Sumter: The Secession Cri users say on Google Play
I only just began solitaire wargaming (non-cyber), even so, I instantly recognized the designer, Mark Herman. Several of his works are directly responsible for my conversion to the hobby, so I was both thrilled to see this ingenuous little game available off-PC, and have found it to be a more-than-worthy adaptation--all the way around (it is, in fact, the only game I now bother playing on devices at all)!
The game plays very well. The AI is slow on the first move of each turn (but my tablet isn't very powerful), but it's acceptable and plays well. Battery killer, though, 2 games took down 15% of my battery and the back of the tablet got extremely warm from all of the CPU work.
The interface is fine, but I purchased this to play offline against the A.I. on my Android device, as the description mentions, and the A.I. is very slow and thus far not very I. at all.
