New campaign
I would like to see French soldiers in a ww1 setting like a 1916 verdun
Great Mobile Remaster
I don’t normally write reviews but I’ve always wanted this flash game to be ported to mobile and was super excited when I found it randomly on the App Store. I’ve played through both the 1917 and 1944 campaigns so far and it’s been super fun reliving the nostalgia of this game. I plan on purchasing the Battle of the Bulge DLC and giving that a go as well. Definitely recommend

It’s enjoyable! But…
This game is very fun and enjoyable for just playing through the two free warfare campaigns while acting as either side of these conflicts (British/American side and the German side), with its satisfying and gritty visuals and graphics along with distinctive gameplay. Even though at first I did grow confused or frustrated at the mechanics for both campaigns, I soon learn how they work as well as come to terms that this sort of small series is entirely unique on its own as being a remastered legacy of its old flash games. Even though I never grew up with such flash games, I still respect it.
However, I wish there was a little more flexibility or freedom in the “custom battle” section for both campaigns. Like I can already choose how big a map is in 1917 and choose how many trenches I need, but these trenches have a predetermined spot if you choose any number, like if I pick to have only one trench, it always spawns in the middle of the map rather than anywhere else such as being on the far left or right of the map. I see that the barbwire (no matter how many you choose) have randomized placements, why can’t trenches do the same? And if a player does not want them randomized, then let the player have the ability to choose where to place the trench(es).
As for 1944, sure there are 9 different maps to choose from, some with already placed “strategic points” on maps that feature them, which are spots that troops can take cover behind, and some without any cover if one chooses to play in open warfare. However I think having the choice to freely put how many “strategic points” anywhere on the three lanes of a map would be great.
Also, I have a small complaint for this weird thing that can be seen in the 8th map, where playing as the Germans, there are a couple strategic points that troops would just not take cover behind under any circumstance. They would just immediately go past or over a spot perfect for cover as if nothing was there. There might be another map that does this, but I think it is just the 8th map, so can this be fixed to never happen again?
Thank you for reading my review.

Plz add gore back
I love this remastered version of two classic flash games and the fact that I can play both games on mobile, but the only thing that’s missing that bothers me is that there is no longer any gore, which makes the combat feel different. I guess I could describe it as feeling more empty with less weight of each loss, but I think it would be great if you could add blood back to these games. Other than that, love being able to play this again!

Game isnt the same
The morale system is broken on custom matches. I remember having long drawn out battles in the flash version but now i make a custom battle and destroy one or two tanks and the enemy surrenders so fast. Devs need to play the flash version of warfare 1917, on its hardest difficulty and be reminded how good this game was…

Good but also one sided
Was cool to see this had a complete remaster with a new added campaign, used to love playing this on the laptop. Unfortunately the WW1 campaign is hard for me anyway as the other team seems to spam artillery what just instantly kills any units I spawn and makes my morale plummet, making it really hard to just complete it. The WW2 campaign is good though, I managed to complete that without experiencing any cases of one sided advantages.

Fantastic game
Fantastic game and a healthy dose of nostalgia. Any chance 1776 will come to mobile on its release?
Really good, hopefully new games come out
Amazing game, keeps me glued to the screen and doesn’t make me want to stop playing. Hopefully you guys will make a modern Warfare game maybe set in the Afghanistan war but either way just a new game in general would be great! 11/10 game, would recommend.
Cool
Very good game and interesting but only for about 30 minutes as you only get two campaigns which just take 15 minutes each and you have to pay to get a third one and remove adds so just make the game longer (came from instagram btw)
Amazing
It’s always been a really good game. I remember playing this at school but now it’s way more convenient and fun
Love it
Thank you for letting me replay one of my favorite flash games while procrastinating at work on my phone. It means so much to me! However, I played the flash game on a website recently and noticed there was something missing in this version. Is there any way gore can be added into this version? It makes the carnage and hellscape of the battlefield seem more pronounced. Other than that, it’s fantastic to play again!

Thank you
Great games, better devs <3
Excellent
The nostalgia to this game as soon as I realised what it was flooded back
Yes, it’s not for everybody, but this was a game I spent hours on “back in the day”
So pleased I found this again

Tf am I supposed to do
The enemy spawns 80 guys compared to my 4. And I have the spawn time maxed out so what am I supposed to do?
Why with the ads
Good game, but my god the ads are crazy and you can’t even pay to like fully buy the game so you don’t have to deal with ads. All good though cause this game is on the steam and gives you a better experience.
Awesome
So cool and just like I remember from back in the day ! But lack of blood is kind of less immersive …
Jogo muito bom
Um colega me indicou e não me arrependo
Enjoyable! But…
[Be forewarned that this is a long review, read this with some patience].
This game is very fun and enjoyable for just playing through the two free warfare campaigns while acting as either side of these conflicts (British/American side and the German side), with its satisfying and gritty visuals and graphics along with distinctive gameplay. Even though at first I did grow confused or frustrated at the mechanics for both campaigns, I soon learn how they work as well as come to terms that this sort of small series is entirely unique on its own as being a remastered legacy of its old flash games, even though I never grew up with such flash games, I still respect it.
However, there is a thing or two that I really want to complain about in this game: why is it that the enemy AI has a disproportionately low cooldown (or maybe no cooldown) to send in a lot of troops, tanks, and launch every fire support/artillery barrage onto me at a frequent pace?
[The following criticism mainly talks about my experience in the Warfare 1917 part of the game, particularly in its custom battles, though the 1944 part may also be taken into account, even if the custom battles there are a little easier than 1917 when choosing any difficulty].
This issue is prominent in the medium and hard difficulties when playing in either a campaign or custom battle, though this is way more noticeable in the custom battles which this is the context that I will be discussing about. Like I get that war is unfair and all, but this just takes it to a whole other level.
I can sort of tolerate the faster enemy spawns, though they tend to spam more powerful units like snipers, machine gunners, and officers, all of which were supposed to have a slightly longer cooldown than riflemen and assault units. The tank spawns are a little excessive, as even though they have long cooldowns, the enemy AI can somehow muster up 3-4 tanks in the first minute of a custom battle while I can barely scrape up 2 tanks at the same time, which combined with the faster enemy troop spawns, will absolutely decimate my forces.
Additionally, it seems like after the AI sends in any troop unit, they quickly send in a tank some seconds later, despite the “sending one unit resets ALL unit timers” that we players have to abide by in the 1917 section of the game, like if I decided to send in riflemen when my tank cooldown is almost done, then that tank cooldown will reset the moment I send in any troop unit and have to wait for that very long cooldown due to my mistake of not waiting a couple seconds to get the tank, seems to not apply for the AI.
As for the fire support, now that’s where most of my gripe is. Here I am patiently waiting for the cooldowns of my fire support after I launched just 1 of them at a time. As for the AI, whenever they send in either 1 mortar, artillery, gas, or anti-tank, they send in 2 and sometimes 3 more of the same thing. To put it simply, if the AI wants to send in mortars at me, I get 3 and sometimes 4 of the same thing in total, all at once! They want to send in artillery? They send me 3 of it. They want to send in gas? I get hit with 3 gas attacks. And the same thing goes for anti-tank.
I should specify that the troop, tank, and fire support issue can be all seen when playing on a medium length map in a 1917 custom battle on both medium and hard difficulties, so you might not see the issues in either a small or long length map.
Like I really enjoy this game and would come back to play it, it’s just that the AI spawn rate of its troops, tanks, and fire support may need to be toned down or at least equal to the player’s cooldown.
Lastly, all these disadvantages against the player really does make me wonder why the upgrade skill tree system from the campaigns are not also implemented into the custom battles as things you can pick or adjust if you want to give yourself more of a challenge or an advantage against the AI.
Sure there are some things carried over such as the grenade or air support feature in the 1944 section for example, where in the campaign, you have to unlock them via the skill tree, but when you play in a custom battle, the grenade and air support, as well as a few others, are included automatically.
However, all other upgrades are only exclusive to the campaign mode, such as reduced cooldown by a certain percentage(s) of how fast you can deploy troops; the reduced troop cost in the 1944 campaign if one chooses to do a custom battle in that era; faster cooldown speed for fire support; additional shells for your fire support barrages; more damage to your gas attacks as well as having them linger longer when deploying them; having either more defense or damage to your troops; etc.
These omissions of many upgrade skill tree perks from custom battles essentially has the player be thrust into a battle in their default strength like they do at the start of a new campaign.
All in all, my experience with battling the AI, particularly in custom battles, is to put it quite frankly, incredibly one-sided and just practically unfair to almost the highest degree if one chooses to play in a 1917 custom battle. And even though 1944 custom battles are more easier, to reiterate again, it may also need to be taken into account.

Its too easy
Like i said its too easy not a real challenge even on hard mode
Response from developer
Thanks for the feedback. Warfare Legacy Collection keeps close to the classic campaign design, but we understand that some strategy players are looking for a tougher challenge, even on hard mode.
Add gore effects
There’s no gore effects at all, please add some blood and dismemberment like seen in the original game.
