May 2025
It's not yet complete - but the developers extremely vocal and active, and is frequently pushing updates. If you like Advance Wars, I think you'll like this. Here are the issues at the time of review: - Campaign is too easy - There's no place to view the commander abilities - Fuel and ammo depletion are not yet working - AI is a bit dumb What I like: - It's basically Advance Wars - It's fun, regardless if it's incomplete - Faction specific units - Map editor is actually pretty decent

It's got a decent foundation and not a bad game, but yeah, it doesn't feel fully polished or complete. I like my Advance Wars strategy games, but it's not all there yet. Several missing art, animations, sounds, UI, etc., several bugs are ridden still. It's weird, it's got kinks to iron out but for building off AW games, it does get the job done on at its base and it's still fun because of that. But just know imo, it's not worth it's near $30 price tag, it is lacking in unique troops to different factions, & it's got a ways to go.

I’ve completed all missions on both world maps on Brutal difficulty. I'd say the challenge feels similar to Advance Wars' Hard Campaign. Played over 30 multiplayer matches through matchmaking and lobbies, and I haven’t run into any connection issues since day one. Speaking of multiplayer the game has a lot of potential and the pacing is actually pretty fast and fun. Sure, there were issues at launch, but the devs have been pushing out patches regularly. That might’ve turned some people away, but honestly, I think it’s a solid game that deserves a second chance. And hey, if it’s not for you, there’s always the refund option—nothing to lose! I’ve got 60+ hours in so far and no regrets. The game definitely has room to grow, but if you’re a fan of the genre, I totally recommend it. GLHF!

Awesome game as long as the devs don't give up on it. I am sincerely enjoying playing this. the combat system and beautiful pixel graphics make it so fun to play, and the fast pace of the battles keep it from taking too long for a battle. This game was not ready for full release. It is severely lacking in features and has a multitude of bugs. I am leaving a positive review because I believe LAVABIRD is going to make this game great. We just need to give them a chance to fix their mistakes before we kill one of the best game ideas in a long time with negative reviews. If in a month nothing has changed, I will update this review.

Hi developers, Thank you for putting the time to make this game. I have been an advanced wars fan since the first one came out. I’m thankful that someone is carrying this torch. The game feels good and just needs some more polishing. Please please please don’t give up on this. Make it the best game possible. There is a community of people that believe in the work you’re doing. It’s discouraging to have low ratings on the first day. Pro Love the battle animations and the pixel art. Love the ability to have multiplayer. Combat feels good. Ai is nice and it’s nice to have the selection of difficulty per mission. Con I’m missing the ability to repair on properties and see the terrain under the characters. Might be nice to have a feature where you select indirect units and then you’re able to select a fire choice and cycle through the targets instead of moving the cursor over to each target. Thank you for responding quickly to patch bugs, I know it’s been a bumpy launch day but stay with it!
