best strategy games on ipad

Alright, let’s talk about them best strategy games on iPad, you know, the ones that get your brain workin’ like mine does when I’m tryin’ to figure out why the chickens ain’t layin’ eggs. I ain’t no fancy expert or nothin’, but I know what’s fun, and I know what keeps me busy for hours, kinda like weedin’ the garden, but more fun, ya know?

First off, everyone and their brother keeps jabberin’ about Civilization VI. They call it some kinda empire-buildin’ thing. And let me tell ya, it’s somethin’ else. You start with nothin’, just a little ol’ hut, and then you gotta make it grow big and strong. Reminds me of when I first moved into this ol’ house, had to fix it up room by room, year after year. You gotta think ahead in this game, plan things out, or else you end up like old man Johnson down the road, with his crops failin’ every year ’cause he plants ’em too early.

• Buildin’ stuff: You gotta build all sorts of things, like farms to feed your people, and barracks to train soldiers. It’s like when you’re building a chicken coop, you start with the foundation, then you do the posts, and all that stuff. If you don’t plan things out, your coop will be wobbly, and all your chickens are gonna run off.
• Fightin’ folks: Sometimes, other folks get greedy and want what you got. Then you gotta fight ‘em. It’s just like when those darn squirrels try to steal my tomatoes, I gotta chase ’em off with a broom. In the game, though, you got archers and swordsmen and all sorts of fancy fighters.
• Thinkin’ hard: This ain’t no game where you just tap the screen and things happen. You gotta really think about what you’re doin’, plan your moves, or else you’ll get stomped. It’s like when you’re canning vegetables, you gotta follow each step real careful, or else they’ll go bad and all your hard work is for nothing.

Now, they say this Civilization VI is on somethin’ called Netflix too. I ain’t got no Netflix myself, I got enough trouble just figurin’ out the TV remote. But if you got it, maybe you can play the game there too. Seems like these young folks got games everywhere these days.

Then there’s these other games, all sorts of them. Some are about fightin’, like that game Countries io. I seen my grandson playin’ it once. It’s all about takin’ over other folks’ land. Reminds me a bit of those old Western movies, where everyone’s fightin’ over territory. But this one’s got colors and maps and stuff, looks real fancy.

And there are card games too, like Balatro. I ain’t never played it myself, cards always seemed too complicated to me. I like things simple, like a good ol’ game of checkers. But my grandson says it’s fun, somethin’ about buildin’ hands and scorin’ points. Sounds like more thinkin’ to me.

Now, folks keep askin’ about gettin’ games for free on that iPad thingy. My grandson showed me once. You gotta go to somethin’ called the App Store, and there’s a whole section for games. Some cost money, but there’s plenty of free ones too. It’s like goin’ to the market, some things cost a pretty penny, but you can always find some good deals if you look hard enough. They got sections for “Top Charts,” which I guess is what everyone’s playin’, and a section just for free stuff. So, if you’re lookin’ to save a few bucks, that’s where you gotta go.

And speakin’ of that iPad, folks wonder if it’s good for playin’ games. Well, my grandson’s got one, and it seems to work just fine. He plays all sorts of games on it, so I guess it’s good enough. They say it’s got some fancy chip inside, an A12 Bionic somethin’ or other. Sounds like somethin’ out of a science fiction movie to me, but I guess it makes the games run smooth. It can handle the easy games and the harder ones too, kinda like my old tractor, it can plow a small field or a big one, just takes a bit longer for the big one.

So, there ya have it, a whole bunch of strategy games for that iPad thing. Whether you wanna build an empire, fight some folks, or just play some cards, there’s somethin’ for everyone. Just remember, these games ain’t about tappin’ the screen and hopin’ for the best. You gotta use your head, plan your moves, and think ahead. Just like in life, if you wanna get somewhere, you gotta put in the effort. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on them chickens, they’re probably gettin’ into mischief again.

If you like to try a new game, go to that App Store and look around. You might find somethin’ you like. Just don’t spend all day playin’ games, you gotta get some work done too, just like you need to weed the garden and water the plants. It is all about balance.

So remember, good games need you to use your brain. That is why they call them strategy games. They ain’t easy, but they can be fun. And that’s all that matters, right? Havin’ a little fun now and then.
