### 3/5 — Could be better if

*2022-12-07*

It was more historical and not some German fantasy.

### 4/5 — Good game

*2018-09-10, version 3.2.0*

My personal favourite game a few years back. A while ago I used to play this so much and it was so fun for my dumb little stupid brain who failed so many times. I suck at this but it's fun :P

### 2/5 — Ok but there are mistakes

*2018-02-18*

Theres no information when you tap on an enemy units
The reniforcements still dont turn up in The long road mission !

### 4/5 — Like this Game

*2017-12-30*

I really like this game. I have spent many hours occupied with Tank Battle 1944

### 4/5 — Good & Bad

*2017-12-27*

I don’t like this game as well as its previous version. It is still by far the best tank strategy app I’ve seen. 
Complex responses by computer, multiple options. Graphics have improved.

### 4/5 — Bon wargames

*2017-12-01*

Un wargame simple mais efficace.
On pourra regretter un manque de diversité dans les unités, des renforts à des moments précis (donc aucune notion de ravitaillement ou capacité de produire des unités).
Par contre les attaques de flanc sont prises en compte (bon point).
Gros regret la gestion des déplacements/tirs : une fois tiré on ne peut plus se déplacer même si on ne s’est pas déplacé avant.
Pour le reste il est assez réaliste fournissant des valeurs de dégâts pour chaque unité ainsi que les proba de toucher. Cela peut rendre les combats plus long pour éliminer une unité, mais ça évite qu’en 2 tir une unité disparaisse.
A vérifier le mode historique qui évite d’avoir des troupes presque toutes égales.

### 4/5 — Awesome

*2017-04-17, version 2.6*

Great game. Reminds me of the old Panzer General days

### 4/5 — Worth your time and money

*2017-01-02, version 2.6*

As a long time lover of hex based strategy games, these games definitely scratch the itch. This one does not get 4 stars because there is a bug when try to switch artillery from firing to moving (truck status). But that does not ruin it

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2016-12-13, version 2.6*

The only thing that could be improved is the usability.

### 5/5 — Great strategy

*2016-10-09, version 2.6*

Great strategy game. Once you learned the moves it is very intertaining. Lots of fun.

### 4/5 — Good fight

*2016-09-23, version 2.6*

When you learn to use the enemy's numbers and weaknesses against him/her this is a challenging and exciting game.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy this for iMac

*2025-11-01*

Does not work on iMac. Wish this was disclosed before I wasted $10.

### 1/5 — Sort out glitches

*2024-11-10*

Was a good game but can’t restore purchases so is now unusable

### 1/5 — Can’t Restore many of my past purchases

*2019-01-06*

Very disappointed in these games.  Paid for many of the Campaigns and have played them in the past but now asking me to pay for them again and won’t allow me to restore.  Why bother buying any more games from them.

### 1/5 — All Previous Purchases Gone, No Restore

*2018-12-11*

Without warning, the latest update killed all my previous inapp purchases, without any restore option. I own every game this company makes so this was really disappointing. Now Im fearful of updating any HexWar Games Ltd.

### 1/5 — Purchases lost...

*2018-12-10*

How do I restore all previously purchased campaigns? App wants me to buy them again...

### 1/5 — No restoring!

*2018-12-10*

Unable to restore previous purchases!

### 1/5 — Have to pay for campaigns again ?

*2018-12-08*

I had already paid for all the campaigns. After your recent upgrade I now have to pay for them again. How is this right ?

### 1/5 — Update asked me to repurchase the game!

*2018-12-08*

I had purchased the full game, all levels completed, updated the app and it’s asking me to purchase everything again. NOT GOOD.

### 1/5 — The standard garbage

*2017-12-01*

1. Basic game only has two levels. You have to keep paying again and again to add new levels. Becomes expensive just to get something that lasts a few hours!
2. The same problem with every Tank Battle game from this developer: uneven difficulty. Some games are a simple walkover on easy level. No point in playing, the opposition doesn’t even fire at you.
3. Too many tiny maps.
Don’t waste your money and time on this garbage.

### 1/5 — Broken campain

*2016-05-02, version 2.4*

German campain, round 6 is broken. Ends, if Yanks take one control point, but should end only, if they take all control point. Therefore impossible to get past round 6 in this paid-for campain.

### 5/5 — More maps

*2021-10-07*

Oi mate add more maps to two player my lil bro Gregory he don't like the the small amount of maps eh add more two players maps and more choices to add what reinforcements you want

### 5/5 — Restore purchases don’t work my XS Max

*2018-12-14*

Ever since they updated the game to support the full screen on the iPhones with notches the restore purchases button does not work. When ever I press the restore purchases button it just brings me back to the page where you select which campaign you want and nothing changes will still ask for payment when you select one. Extremely Disappointed as I purchased almost all the campaigns

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2018-07-23*

Used to play it couldn’t remember its name have been searching for hours finally found it

### 5/5 — Old fashioned and very challenging

*2018-03-13*

I love the hex based games and I’ve played everything in the rank genre from Hex War. I used to play panzer general etc on the PC. this is similar except that your units don’t gain experience *sniff*. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — My Tabletop Itch!

*2018-01-10*

For all you old school tabletop gamers this is a great alternative to breaking out the boxes of paper chits and trying to find a shlub willing to spend 3 hours playing an otherwise simple game. Go as fast or slow as you want. AI is very difficult on harder settings.

### 5/5 — Someone is making money on me😛

*2017-07-05*

I have kept myself from buying games or in-game-packs for many months of owning my iPhone. Tank Battle has won my wallet. 💵💵💵

I am lovingly enjoying every wasted minute. 👾🎮

### 5/5 — Please fix a bug

*2017-04-30*

The attacking and the defensive roles in the games of Bastogne seem to be mistakenly converted in the latest version. Please fix it. Many thanks!

### 5/5 — Pretty good

*2017-04-05, version 2.6*

I like it great graphics good action.

### 5/5 — Great hex based strategy!

*2017-01-14, version 2.6*

Like a quick Tide of Iron for your mobile device.

### 5/5 — Superb

*2017-01-08, version 2.6*

Excellent turn based war game well worth the small price.
