Freeciv upgrade on Google Play and known issue

Yesterday, Freeciv have been updated on Google Play as a main release. There is a known issue when loading old games: all graphics have changed, and many people would find it ugly.

I've found some ways to turn around this problem:
  • Start a new game, the graphics will display fine. (And you can also enjoy the new hexemplio hexadecimal tiles)
  • If you want to finish your old game, you can use Freeciv 2.5 on your computer.
