Hi Francois! Glad you’re enjoying Necromancer – thanks for the feedback. The current versions of GA1 and GA2 are iPhone 3GS and below only and while you can play them on your iPad, they are not currently designed for iPad – hence why the resolution isn’t optimised for the platform. Expect iPad specific versions as well as iPhone 4 versions to be out later this year. Regarding the map idea, it is something we have on our feature wishlist and may be something we do in the future.

I am so far enjoying the second game book (my first purchase in the series). It is well written and the story is engaging. If I could make a suggestion, I think it would be nice to have a separate page showing my progress on a map. This would make good use of the iPhone and iPad. This way , I wouldn’t have to draw my own map on a piece of paper. I also noticed that the picture resolution is not as good on the iPad version (which I am using). There is the option to enlarge the picture to fit the iPad screen, but at a noticeable loss of picture quality. nevertheless, the game is quite enjoyable and I look forward to the next installment!
