Earlier in the year I reviewed Slitherine’s Da Vinci’s Art of War for iOS. I really enjoyed the game. Well they have now ported it to Android and it is called Magnifico.

You can download it here from Google Play

Here is some information from their website:

A few months after its successful release on iPad, Da Vinci’s: Art of War is now reaching the Android world with a brand new name, Magnifico, in tribute to the boardgame that inspired this digital adaptation. Today owners of Android tablets will finally have the chance to get their hands on “…a better game than Risk” (Digitally Downloaded) and “[a game with] a very different approach, which is refreshing” (App Review Central).

In Magnifico mighty European lords from the 16th century want to expand their influence in the continent at any cost. The players will join a faction and fight their way to conquer European provinces. They will be confronted with tough AI opponents that will adopt various behaviors and strategies so that every game is very different. As they earn Victory Points, they will have to take economic and military decisions, and invest in Da Vinci’s technologies to boost their armies and territory production levels.

(Did you notice, who they quoted above?!)
