I love Rome Total War. The best of the series IMO. I was skeptical about how the port would work in iOS. I am thoroughly impressed. Its a must buy. To my surprise it syncs with the mac version. So all my saves from my computer campaign were there. I'm chuffed. Haven't been this exited about an iOS game for years.

I'm surprised the Myth Series from Bungie never made it to iOS.
