Many users confuse the official port with the community "Porting" scene. There is a dedicated community of developers who work on ports like Living World: Medieval or ports of the classic Rome: Total War engine. These projects often require you to legally own the PC version of the game. You essentially use a script to "wrap" your PC game files into an IPA so they can run on your phone via a Windows/Mac wrapper. This is a legal grey area but distinct from simple piracy. However, downloading a pre-made IPA of these ports from a stranger is risky. total war medieval 2 ipa free
