Pros and cons of Merelles app for iPhone and iPad

Merelles app good for

 Best classic Mill/9-Mens-Morris/Mühle Game in Store!!! Best Ai , best Design , most Options and Variations . Marvellous and nice  !! I love it and ive really tested all of this kind of Games in Store ...
This is a really nice version of Nine Mens Morris (or Four or Six or Twelve). One thing I initially didnt like is that it includes flying (the ability to jump pieces when youre down to only three pieces) with (at the time) no option to turn off this behaviour. I know a lot of people play the game this way, but not everyone does, and I prefer not to. So I wrote the dev asking for an option to turn off flying. He wrote back within a few hours saying he would add the feature. Later that same day he submitted a new version to Apple, and a few days later here it is. Now that is customer service!
Well written instructions, great graphics and great AI levels. This blows the other two outta the water. Easily made my best iphone games list. Cant wait for your next app whatever it may be. Your reversi game has by far the best AI too.
Played it in Germany and loved it. It should have more than one skin theme Maybe like a wood theme Well worth $1.99
Interface is easy to use. Simply touch the piece that you want to move and the game shows the legal moves. Fat-fingering is not a problem. This application allows you to play 4 different, but related, games. The other versions of Merelles for the iTouch/iPhone do not offer the various different games and dont allow for computer play. A great buy for only $2! My only request would be for another board or two: perhaps a wood board with stone pieces.
Great game! Great app! Cross between checkers and tic tac toe. Was played in ancient Egypt.

Some bad moments

Not much of a beginner mode the AI kills, I guess I havent played this in a while but I still would think easy wouldnt be this difficult
