The game has amazing bones, but it is balanced such that you cannot win if you are F2P. You’d think that the devs make enough money off of the 3 ads every 2 turns that they put you through, but you also have to hand over money for their stupid in-game currency to win, as the enemy always outnumbers you & does more damage than you. ### 4/5 — Very hard *2023-08-31, version 1.7.0* This game is good, but very hard the enemy always wins! ### 5/5 — ……… *2023-08-20, version 1.7.0* А будет новая игра от вас?) ### 4/5 — Game not working *2023-05-07* Game has stopped working ### 5/5 — Good strategy game *2023-04-16, version 1.7.0* Good !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — 會閃退、連續補給會卡bug *2023-04-05, version 1.7.0* 這是我從小玩到大的遊戲，是個很棒的戰略遊戲。從小學就開始玩了，一直到現在我才發現這其實就是新聞常說的兵棋推演。 ### 4/5 — ??? *2023-03-13, version 1.7.0* Когда сделают анимацию как бойцы залазиют в транспорт,а то будто они телепортируются ### 5/5 — Special tanks, artillery, AT vehicles Anti air planes. *2022-11-24* Tanks with special abilities. Amphibious tanks. used in the Japan, this light tank can battle on land and water. Spawn on splie deposit and aircraftcariers, they can’t survive heavy cannons. M3 Grant. Used by the U.S.A., the grant is armed with 2 cannons, 1 is very powerful, it’s unstoppable against Japan tanks. Artillery that can move 2 spaces and mobile on range. Used in both army’s (the one that can’t move and the one that can, can be pick up onto a transporter). Provided as a AT soport, AT vehicles are the armored madness. The Ho-Ri 2, is a long range AT vehicle. Good on long AT used. The M8A1 is more speedy. And move as far as a transporter. Anti air planes are planes that are good on other planes. The Japanes Zero, and the U.S. Grumman Hellcat are theses anti air planes. Special Tanks and anti air planes cost 700 gold, mobile Artillery cost 1250, fealed is 2500, and tank destroyers are 1500 gold. Special tanks and mobile artillery are unlocked after beating the first level of the 2ed to last series of level, AT tanks are unlocked after completing the first level of the last series of levels, and anti air planes and unlocked after AT LEST playing the first level of the first series of levels ( every primum unit (unit need to be unlocked to play with it)in both factions need to be unlocked idavishaly). ### 3/5 — More missions *2022-10-26* This game is fun but it is missing something more missions we need more missions in this game please add like more operations like those like liberty wings can you please add more of those in this game it had not have an update in like five years please if you put a new update on this game I will give it five stars if you do it so please give this game and update I want one so badly ### 3/5 — Good but not great *2022-05-12, version 1.7.0* You spawn with not enough units and not enough gold I think that for each turn you end you should be given some gold but the easier the mission the less gold the harder the mission more gold. Thank you and I hope the developers see this because it is very hard to play like this! ### 5/5 — A quand d’autres terrains ? *2022-04-30* Je joue à cette série de jeux depuis plusieurs années et ne m’en lasse pas. Ces jeux de guerre sont simples et complexes à la fois. Graphismes suffisants, le nombre de type d’unités pourrait être augmenter, les scénarios développés, le terrains doivent l’être : élargir à d’autres conflits : Guerre de session, Crimée, Première guerre mondiale, Guerre d’Espagne, Finlande, bataille(s) de France Finlande Corée, Vietnam, malheureusement la suite ne s’arrête pas là. Excellents jeux inusable. ### 4/5 — Cool game *2022-04-04* This game is great and very fun to play. I just have some issues with it. Number one is their should be more custom boards. Number two is you guys don't give people enough money when we start main story missions. I also have some suggestions you should make a German army and a Italian army . And add generals ### 3/5 — 広告が多いけど楽しい *2022-04-02* なんか広告がいっぱいあるけど楽しい ### 5/5 — Add battle of midway now *2022-02-17, version 1.7.0* It would be really cool ### 5/5 — Bier schmeckt 😋 *2022-01-08, version 1.7.0* Das Spiel ist kurzweilig. Wenn man genug Gold hat, wird es einfacher. Mir macht es immer wieder Spaß, genau, wie die anderen 3 Spiele 👍🏻 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — TRASH *2023-08-13* WARNING ALL OF THESE DEVS GAMES ARE TRASH! It’s PAY TO PLAY! Everything you do costs gold and the only way to get gold is pay cash or “try” to watch videos for 10 gold each if they work!! Everything you do costs 100 gold, most units cost 1,000 - 2,000 gold.!!! Yes this means you spend 20 hours watching videos to buy one unit that dies instantly! You will need to spend 10,000 gold FOR EVERY MAP!! I’ve played some maps 20 times and get to the end to just loose the last troops I’ve had. It’s not designed for anyone to win unless you spend cash! STAY AWAY FROM ALL THEIR GAMES! ### 1/5 — Absolutely outrageous *2023-04-06* Avid lover of this game and I have had all the game on multiple devices for years. I purchased over $20 worth of gold over the years and one day the game wouldn’t skip to the next turn. I tested this multiple days for over a week and eventually decided on uninstalling and reinstalling the game but upon reinstallation it took away all of my gold. The restore purchases does nothing and I have looked up many ways to get my gold back to no avail. I use to love all of these games and the creators but I hate being scammed of real money on a mobile game. ### 1/5 — Watch out!! *2023-04-05* I was playing the American campaign. Loving it, but unfortunately this company is being sneaky with payments. I needed some gold for a mission so I proceed to click the free gold for watching a video, but instead it brought up the remove ads for £3.00 so then it popped up and since I have it on using my finger print to purchase things. The remove ads showed up at I pressed the gold video button so now it had charged me unexpectedly. I am very disappointed on how they have done that to someone who just wants to play their game. Very disappointing. Won’t be playing again. ### 1/5 — Nul *2022-05-11* Sumogas ### 1/5 — Pay to play only *2021-09-04, version 1.7.0* No way to even win the first round without forking out cash for coins. ### 1/5 — Pay to win :/ *2021-05-27, version 1.7.0* Would be 4-5 stars if it wasn’t pay to win. Literally impossible to win a single match if you don’t buy gold or watch ads for it. Great concept and okay execution just extremely hard and in some parts unrealistic. ### 1/5 — Stupid game *2021-05-09, version 1.7.0* You pay $6.99 only to have interruptions for adds in the middle of play...plus the whole game is programmed to have your forces wiped out to incentivize you to “purchase more gold.” Totally geared to make money off you even after you purchase the game. Don’t waste your time or money. ### 1/5 — Very bad *2021-05-06* The game is extremely difficult would not recommend. Game has to many enemies would only recommend for people who like hard games ### 1/5 — Pay to play *2020-10-23, version 1.7.0* I gave up after about a week. The only real way to have any success is to spend money to buy gold, which is the only realistic way to get enough troops to have a chance. And that money goes quickly. ### 1/5 — Okay *2020-08-10, version 1.7.0* Naja, es ist an sich ein gutes Spiel und auch gut umgesetzt aber es lagt teilweise richtig krass (ich habe ein Iphone 7). Außerdem verliert man schnell den Spaß wenn man es fast geschafft hat, und aus irgendeinem Grund dann ein dermaßen krasses Aufgebot an Gegnern kommt und die letzte halbe Stunde weg ist... Sehr Schade deshalb nur 2 Sterne ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Well made strategy game *2026-07-27* The game is well designed with balanced gameplay and interesting missions. It keeps you engaged without feeling repetitive. Great job by the developers! ### 5/5 — What r u doing now? *2025-10-31, version 1.7.7* I don’t think that making games is the only job you have,i think u have another job? (sorry because my question make you uncormfortable but...i just want to know) ### 5/5 — Añadan multijugador en línea *2024-09-18, version 1.7.7* Y como con los juegos de ajedrez que haya límite de tiempo configurable por turno o partida ### 5/5 — Игра лучшая, НО *2024-09-07, version 1.7.7* Игра наилучшая в мире, но, пожалуйста, добавьте новых миссий! ### 5/5 — OH MY GOD *2024-07-18, version 1.7.7* I love this series so much,i enjoy it for 2 years and today when i click in this game on apple store agian i saw you guys updated it,thank you guys so much :> ### 5/5 — All the one star reviews are FAKE! *2024-05-10* For me, I’ve been playing every day for years and it has never crashed, and I have a horrible iPhone! I beat all the levels using 2,000 gold tops. The game gives you about 2,000 gold at the beginning of each level, 1,000 every time you level up, and 40 to 300 gold for each unit defeated! (The adds give you 100, but I don’t need it). Try it yourself. Also, I’ve noticed that the one star reviews are spam and show up on most games. ### 5/5 — Great game *2024-03-31, version 1.7.0* I love the game a lot. I wish there was a Iwo Jima mission. But besides all of that, I love the game ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2023-12-19* The game is super fun! I enjoyed playing through it! Love the strategy and tactical decisions that need to be made! I would however, loved it if you incorporated a feature within the custom mode for an increased amount of gold for role play. It would be great to have that experience! Thank you! ### 5/5 — Nice detailed game *2023-12-17* I love the game, can you tell me pls what’s the difference between Premium version of this game and this free version, thanks!!!! ### 5/5 — Non réaliste *2023-09-02* Le jeux a des très mauvaises qualités quand je mais des mixions j'ai que 50 d'or donc aider moi svp ou un conseille mais sino le jeux nes vremant pas un lu de la ´realiter pourquoi on n a besoin d'or alors quand la vie rel on a pas basions se l'or pour les soldât ??
